TASK 1

After viewing the video, Changing to Learn and Learning to Change, list and explain 2 types of changes (a system one and a local one) you feel need to be addressed by either SMCDSB or the teachers at your school to truly adopt technology as part of their practice.

We feel that we require hardware in the schools for teachers with appropriate support.

Choose one of the articles, read it and discuss it with other group members. Add a comment to this page. Consider the following questions:
Before you start a comment, please indicate what article you have selected. Under the comment, please type the names of your group members. =** article 1 article 2  **=
 * 1) What resonates with you? **Our students are always multitasking in their 'real world'. They do need the "healthy balance" mentioned in the article. Young people "feel connected" when part of a group on the net...ex "facebook friends" students also need the quiet time to meditate.**
 * 2) What do you agree/disagree with?**Providing timeout from the technology for students to make eye contact and one to one conversation is important.**
 * 3) What surprises you?
 * 4) How does the content of the article relate to your school?**We need to work with our students to access the strengths of the digital world and not "Ban" cellphones/ipods from bell to bell.**
 * 5) //THIS IS MR BEAL SIGNING IN -- I HOPE EVERYONE IS PAYING ATTENTION. STAY ON TASK! AND NO, THE CASH BAR IS NOT YET OPEN.//
