Summary of Week #2 and Final Project Proposal<\/span><\/p>\n

Had an interesting time connecting with my group members in the Inquiry group.\u00a0 We had a mixture of elementary and high school so the mixture was interesting.\u00a0 As for myself, “inquiry” was a new buzz word.\u00a0 Was it the same as “resource” based learning or was it simply research.\u00a0 I spent a few days just observing and seeing how they connected with the topic and finally I had to ask the basic question how is “inquiry” based learning different from just plain research?\u00a0 They were able to explain the difference and the importance of\u00a0 the “big question” based on the curriculum.<\/p>\n

I was later able to connect the “Inquiry” model with what I planned to talk about (Bloom’s New Taxonomy) and Language\u00a0 in my summative talk, so I was pleased.\u00a0 For someone who has been out of school it was a quite a thinking process.\u00a0 For me, the theory has to connect to my practice and implementation, otherwise it gets filed in the back of my brain and could lay dormant.<\/p>\n

At this point I’m not sure how the summative presentation will connect, with the final project, but it just might still need to be processed.<\/p>\n

Proposal for Final Project<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the things I have notice and it was not such a concern for me at the time is the growing divide between technology and teachers.\u00a0 We have a group of teachers who are willing to embrace technology and don’t have too much difficulty connecting with it.\u00a0 There are some who have greater difficulties.\u00a0 This creates a disparity and divide between these groups of teachers.\u00a0 Of course there are some teachers who can find themselves in between the two groups.\u00a0 However, the goal for the final project will be to create a blog to connect teachers and support staff with technology at SLSS.\u00a0 This method will enable ways for me to communicate information on how to connect with technology and how to encourage users and let those who are more comfortable with technology the latest trends.\u00a0 It will be our own online professional library that focuses on the connectivity between teachers and technology. This is a synthesis of “World Libraries”, Diigo, and Blooms taxonomy (which might be the organizational way in which I might discuss different applications)<\/p>\n

To start might a question on why do we need to connect with technology?<\/p>\n

What the BC ed plan is expecting teachers to do, and encouraging?<\/p>\n

What steps might the school take to implement technology in the school.<\/p>\n
