1. Teams and Technology: Teaming Up for Success Robert E. Slavin Johns Hopkins University

2. That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind! - Neil Armstrong - But when will education adopt the spirit that put Neil Armstrong on the moon? Video/Audio of the moon landing

3. Why We Need New Classroom Models (picture of bored kids) Kids are still bored. Kids are still passive. Kids are not using their full learning capacity.

4. Technology to the Rescue…or Not (Picture of robot cowboy on horse?) Offers possibilities for… ▫project-based learning, ▫access to knowledge, ▫individualization, and ▫immediate feedback. But the integration of technology with teaching has been lacking.

5. Why has computer-assisted instruction (CAI) had a limited impact on learning? (Picture of robot on surfboard-wipeout?) CAI has been down the hall or at the back of the class. CAI has rarely been central to teaching.

6. Welcoming Technology to Class Interactive whiteboards Computers with projectors Electronic response devices Tablets, iPads Universal access to laptops (Picture of teacher with whiteboard)

7. Classroom-Embedded Technology— assists teachers (rather than replacing them), uses prepared flipcharts with embedded instructional tools, creates dynamite presentations, links to information anywhere, provides assessment, and offers immediate feedback. (Picture of kid with whiteboard)

8. Embedded Multimedia Brief vignettes to illustrate lessons Power of stories, narrative Power of characters Humor (Picture of kids in team, laughing)

9. What Classroom-Embedded Technology Can’t Do Well (yet) Cooperative learning (picture of a team working)

10. 10 Striking a Balance ASSESSMENT PARTNER/ TEAM PRACTICE INSTRUCTION CELEBRATION To get the most out of technology, we must partner it with a classroom system that we know works!

11. How Teams and Technology Can Team Up in the Learning Cycle Presentation –teacher + technology Initial feedback – teacher + technology Team practice – students + teams Formal assessment – teacher + technology Feedback – teacher + technology

12. Egyptian Math (simulation – Egyptian Math)

13. Debriefing How did your team help you learn? How did the use of video and phone responses help engage you in the learning process? How does the teacher’s role change when this model of cooperative learning is used?

14. How Technology Can Help Cooperative Learning: Modeling Example from writing process (first video with Mona & Ricardo)

15. Teams and Technology in Math Shirleylock – parallel lines Mona and Flash – fractions

16. Teams and Technology in Beginning Reading Sound and the Furry - Stick

17. Teams and Technology in Upper-Elementary Reading Tip Topper backgrounder – Charlotte’s Web

18. When Every Child Has Technology at Home Interactive homework, games Self-paced individualized work ▫fills gaps ▫extends forward Book clubs

19. Making the Most of Trailing Edge Technology Current technologies can be used in a revolutionary way. Better technologies are coming. Ubiquitous access (home and school) is the next frontier.

20. R&D Needed There’s lots of work to do. But let’s do it!
