The Potential of Digital Technologies in Educating Tomorrow’s Citizens for the 21st Century 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 1 WHAT TIME IS IT? Do you ever stand back and try to see the big picture The view from 50,000 feet of what’s going on in organizations, communities, the world? From up there, how would you describe these times? Margaret Wheatley (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 2 1/2 FULL? 1/2 EMPTY? If we think that, generally, things are working, then we don’t question current systems or their operating assumptions. If we believe the current system cannot be repaired then support needs to be given to radically different processes and methods, new systems based on new assumptions. Margaret Wheatley (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 3 Change is driving us out of our comfort zone. We turned around and the new world was simply here, part of our lives, a fait accompli. Thomas Homer-Dixon 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 4 … and the rate of change – will continue to accelerate. Schools, … must adapt to changing conditions to thrive.

Globalization, technological advances, immigration, and a ubiquitous global media culture are defining the 21st century. And Canada is not immune. 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 11 Increased complexity "Technology, … reduces the amount of time it takes to do any one task, but it also leads to the expansion of tasks that people are expected to do. It's what happens to people when they get computers and faxes and cellular telephones and all of the new technologies that are coming out today." 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 12 A world of continuously emerging technologies The mainstream media is dying Radio is ‘officially’ dead; especially when wifi comes to your car! Seth Godin (2005) If you’re not using these technologies now, your thinking is already outdated.[http://www.iconinteractive.co m/Article23.htm] MP3 players; RSS feeds; VoiP Instant messaging, weBLOGs, PODcasting, SOCIAL bookmarking … Wireless and mobile technologies 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 13 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 14 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION Today’s students have not just changed incrementally from those of the past,… . A really big discontinuity has taken place. One might even call it a “singularity” – an event which changes things so fundamentally that there is absolutely no going back. This so-called “singularity” is the arrival and rapid dissemination of digital technology in the last decades of the 20th century. Prensky (2001) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 15 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION Today, our students represent an unprecedented level of diversity—in abilities, learning styles, prior educational experience, attitudes and habits related to learning, language, culture, and home situations. The challenge of educating these students requires new capacities for schools and new orientations for the educators who make decisions that influence students’ lives. Breaking Ranks Mary Ann Lachat 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 16 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION The future has arrived, says the CBE. 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 17 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION … in 2005 When asked, - 99% of children aged 6 – 17 report they use the Internet at least to some extent, most of whom used it for the first time whey they were 8 – 10 years old - 94% use Internet at Home (up from 79% in 2001) - 37% - (20% of Grade 4 and 51% of Grade 11) access internet on their own computer - 23% have cell phones - 44% of which have internet capability • 62% of Grade 4s say they prefer the Internet to look for information • 38% choose the library • 91% of Grade 11s say they prefer the Internet - 56% have cell phone with text messaging - 17% have cameras - 86% have email accounts (up from 71% in 2001) - 72% use free email services (Hotmail; GMail etc) - 89% of grade 4s play games - 28% of grade 4s use instant messaging; 43% by Grade 5; 86% by Grade 11 - Chat rooms very unpopular compared to instant messaging - 14% of Grade 4s write in a personal blog 7/16/2015 75% of young people go on-line to do school work Young Canadians in A Wired World http://www.mediaawareness.ca/english/special_initiatives/surveys/ind ex.cfm Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 18 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION … our children live in a global, digital world – a world transformed by technology and human ingenuity. Many of today’s youngsters are comfortable using laptops, instant messaging, chat rooms, and cell phones to connect to friends, family, and experts in local communities and around the globe. Given the rapid rate of change, the vast amount of information to be managed, and the influence of technology on life in general, students need to acquire different, evolving skill sets to cope and to thrive in this changing society . enGauge 21st Century Skills for 21st Century Learners 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 19 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION The ease and speed of technology is changing the way students learn. Educators cannot change that…. No generation has ever had to wait so little to get so much information! Educational Leadership, April 2005 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 20 Changing our schools is like designing a jumbo jet in flight or changing the wheel on a moving car! Dimmock and O’Donoghue (1997) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 21 • We CAN plan for the future • We SHOULD plan for future • We SHOULD NOT be disappointed when we don’t get the future we planned for 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 22 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE The Opportunity … to foster public dialogue on the a preferred future in public schooling and the role technology will have. 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 23 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE "... for schools to do more of what they have always done is to prepare pupils for a world that is rapidly disappearing.“ Louise Stoll and Dean Fink 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 24 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE Our public schools need our thoughtful attention. They are struggling to address rapid and unprecedented social and technological changes Failing our Kids Ungerleider (2003) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 25 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE New understandings about the brain about how people learn about the potential of information communication technologies changes in patterns of work necessitate a profound rethinking of the structures of education. The 21st Century Learning Initiative 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 26 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE “…Technology allows students to do things at a level of complexity and sophistication impossible without a computer. It permits them to move with ease and confidence in real and virtual worlds where things change. It allows them to create, not simply consume and reproduce knowledge.” Clifford and Friesen; (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 27 RESPONDING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE Differentiating Teaching and Learning http://www.cast.org/teachingev erystudent/ideas/tes/ 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 28 Our legacy …. Public Education is as vital to the economic and cultural future of this country as our oil and gas reserves, as our freshwater supply, as our international trading partners. We simply cannot compete without a robust public school system. And if we don't invest in public education now, we'll all be paying a terrible price just a few years down the road. Public education is nothing less than the cornerstone of culture, peace and prosperity. Henry Adams said, "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where is influence stops." That's the absolute truth. Lois Hole (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 29 Where do we begin? Start by standing back. It’s time to step back from our traditional thinking about learning and rethink schools, classrooms, curriculum, evaluation, the roles of teachers & learners and particularly, what it means and what it will be mean to be learned in the light of the modern changing world. 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 30 Where do we begin? Examine how Educational Aims: Socialization (“useful” knowledge) Initiation (“academic” knowledge) Development (“constructed” knowledge) can be aligned and measured within 21st Century understandings, expectations, outcomes, “Ends”. 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 31 How could educational technologies: 7/16/2015 1. Broaden opportunities to be informed from multiple perspectives? 2. Support universal access to information and communication networks 3. Extend opportunities to participate in shaping and sharing opinion? 4. Serve to engage young people in democratic processes and decision making? Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 32 How could educational technologies: 7/16/2015 1. Develop and broaden assessment that measures 21st Century learning? 2. Provide authentic and relevant learning options? 3. Provide anytime, anywhere learning? 4. Support universal access to information, communication environments and tools? Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 33 How could educational technologies: 1. Build student (parent) awareness of personal learning styles, strengths and directions? 2. Establish trust/mentoring relationships with adults (teachers) and peers? 3. Articulate personal learning history – data gathering? 4. Explore future directions/opportunities within a community and society? 21st CENTURY LEARNING 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 34 Where do we begin? Examine our 21st Century learners? What digital technologies shape their reality? How are they living and learning out of school? 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 35 SYNCHRONOUS AND ASYNCHRONOUS COMMUNICATIONS (experiencing diverse perspectives and points of view) Real-time Communication Discussion Forums Video-conferencing Email Chatting Parallel Working Environments Clifford and Friesen; (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 36 SIMULATIONS, MICROWORLDS AND GAMES Becoming intellectually and emotionally engaged Creating and working in simulated environments Exploiting the power of play and of the imagination Clifford and Friesen; (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 37 MULTI-MEDIA (create by using many of our senses) Authoring Composing Imaging Developing functional literacies Clifford and Friesen; (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 38 DATA BASES/SPREADSHEETS Effective Collection of Data Classifying Things Looking for Commonalities and Differences Analyzing relationships Working collaboratively to determine categories or fields, to decide what data will count and to collect effectively Clifford and Friesen; (2002) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 39 HYPERMEDIA (composing text where ideas are related in nonlinear ways) Using structure as part of meaning Working in places of experiences and possibilities Establishing fundamental relationships Finding links between (among) ideas Linking various forms of media – words, pictures, sounds … Clifford and Friesen; (2002)7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 40 Where do we begin? Examine opportunities: to exploit rapid and unprecedented social and technological changes to embrace adaptive and distributed learning for students and for educators to work with broad communities who support public education that reflect our choices for a preferred future 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 41 THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE in EDUCATION The present school system is increasingly irrelevant to today’s technological and information based society. Jukes, Ian (2005); 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 42 Changes in our world are so rapid and so decisive that it will not be possible for schools to remain as they were or simply to introduce a few superficial adjustments. If schools do not change quite rapidly and quite radically, they are likely to be replaced by other, more responsive (though perhaps less comfortable and less legitimate) institutions. Howard Gardner (2000) 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 43 The Classroom of the Future …? (in 2025 - or sooner) “One of our issues as a society going forward is to teach kids to express themselves in the medium of their generation …The drive over the next 20 years is to integrate multimedia tools to the point where people become authors in the medium of their day…” Steve Jobs 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 44 The Classroom of the Future … ? (in 2025 (or sooner) The real transformation will occur when we have the new ways of organizing people and knowledge. Instead of fragmenting knowledge into ‘subjects’ and segregating children by age we will see groups formed around common interests. I see children using computers for making music, movies, robots – whatever evokes their passion. The assumptions we made as to why writing was superior to speaking no longer hold up in many ways. Voice recognition makes possible the recording and indexing of spoken language in new ways. In the very, very long run, maybe we’ll just give up reading. Mathematics will breakout of the box we've put it in – this very abstract, pure manipulation of symbols. If we look imaginatively at technology, new directions are open. Seymour Papert 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 45 The Classroom of the Future … ? (in 2025 (or sooner) “We should be developing habits of mind and the kind of thoughtful interpersonal relationships needed to direct technology rather than seeing technological competence as an end in itself. It’s the habits of mind that are critical.” Deborah Meier 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 46 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 47 In summation: What trends (political, economic, social ...) are acting as forces to reshape education in the 21st century? Who is the 21st Century Learner? What do we understand the needs of 21st century learners to be? What role should technology play in meeting these needs? • What is the educational problem to which digital technology is the solution? • Whose problem is it? • What new problems are being created? • What sort of people and institutions might acquire special economic and political power because of technological change? • What changes in language are being employed by new technologies, and what is being gained and lost by such changes? To what extent are current schooling practices meeting the needs of students today? 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 48 The END! 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 49 THANK YOU !! 7/16/2015 Cathy Faber & Ron Windrim - Innovative Learning Services 50 References Collaborative for Technology Standards for School Administrators.
