The Deep End is where everything comes together. In this space, we will discuss how all elements of the ET Matrix interact to support learning, including 21st Century Skills. But to get there, you must be brave enough to walk on water to get to the other side! ;->
Here is where we will identify how to make sure infrastructure supports all aspects of learning and school operations, and the role that emerging technologies can play in "making it so." Although learning is not about wires and boxes, the way infrastructure is set up determines what can and can't be accomplished. Please add a comment for each candidate use of emerging technologies that you'd like to have considered.
Here is where we'll discuss the heart of learning, and how emerging technologies contribute. This includes all of the elements on the Process Management chart(Curriculum & Instruction, Information Literacy & Research, Instructional Media, Content Creation...)Please add a comment for each candidate use of emerging technologies that support any of these elements.
This is where we will identify and discuss how key educational systems can be supported by emerging technologies. These include Accountability, Community Connectedness, Fiscal, Facilities and Infrastructure systems. Please add a comment for each candidate use of technology you wish to share.
Here is where we identify the professional learning required to make sure that current and new staff have the knowledge and skills to derive the maximum benefit emerging technologies can bring to learning. We will also conduct professional development for ourselves and colleagues here. Please add a comment for any candidate uses of emerging technology in professional development, or suggested topics for presentation/sessions.
