This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These well-respected authors provide a rationale for integrating computers into the classroom curriculum by using them as tool, rather than just an instructional delivery device. Accessible for even teachers with limited computer knowledge teachers are provided with a ten-step NTeQ (iNtegrating Technology for inQuiry) model for developing and implementing integrated lesson plans. Word processing, spreadsheets, databases, publishing software, the Internet, and educational software are all explored, with the goal of demonstrating how to determine whether or not computers should be used and how best to use them. Helping teachers connect what they are learning to their daily planning and instruction the content within each chapter is also aligned with the new ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students (NETS-S) and Teachers (NETS-T), revised in 2007 and 2008, respectively. A new feature throughout the book, The Teacher Diary, documents teacher experiences as they incorporate the NTeQ model in the classroom. The popular NTeQ Lesson Plans have also been expanded to be included in Chapters 7-11.

Book Integrating Digital Literacy in the Disciplines

Download or read book Integrating Digital Literacy in the Disciplines written by Lauren Hays and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital literacy has become the vital competency that students need to master before graduating. This book provides rich examples of how to integrate it in disciplinary courses.While many institutions are developing introductory courses to impart universal literacy (skills students need to know) and creative literacy (skills for creating new content), discipline-specific skills (skills needed to succeed within a specific discipline) are a vital extension to their learning and ability to apply digital literacy in different contexts. This book provides examples of how to integrate digital literacy across a wide variety of courses spanning many domains.Rather than a wholly new core institutional outcome, digital literacy adds to the development of critical thinking, communication, problem-solving, and teamwork skills by building students’ capacities to assess online information so they can ethically share, communicate, or repurpose it through the appropriate use of available digital technologies. In short, it provides the vital digital dimension to their learning and the literacy skills which will be in increasing demand in their future lives.Following introductory chapters providing context and a theoretical framework, the contributing authors from different disciplines share the digital competencies and skills needed within their fields, the strategies they use to teach them, and insights about the choices they made. What shines through the examples is that, regardless of the specificity of the disciplinary examples, they offer all readers a commonality of approach and a trove of ideas that can be adapted to other contexts.This book constitutes a practical introduction for faculty interested in including opportunities to apply digital literacy to discipline-specific content. The book will benefit faculty developers and instructional designers who work with disciplinary faculty to integrate digital literacy. The book underscores the importance of preparing students at the course level to create, and be assessed on, digital content as fields are modernizing and delivery formats of assignments are evolving.Domains covered include digital literacy in teacher education, writing, musicology, indigenous literary studies, communications, journalism, business information technology, strategic management, chemistry, biology, health sciences, optometry, school librarianship, and law.The book demonstrates a range of approaches that can used to teach digital literacy skills in the classroom, including:·Progressing from digital literacy to digital fluency ·Increasing digital literacy by creating digital content · Assessment of digital literacy ·Identifying ethical considerations with digital literacy ·Sharing digital content outside of the classroom ·Identifying misinformation in digital communications ·Digitizing instructional practices, like lab notes and essays ·Reframing digital literacy from assumption to opportunity ·Preparing students to teach digital literacy to others ·Collaborating with other departments on campus to support digital literacy instruction ·Incorporating media into digital literacy (digital media literacy) ·Using digital storytelling and infographics to teach content knowledge] ·Weaving digital literacy throughout the curriculum of a program, and with increasing depth

Book Integrating Digital Technology in Education

Download or read book Integrating Digital Technology in Education written by R. Martin Reardon and published by IAP. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth volume in the Current Perspectives on School/University/Community Research series brings together the perspectives of authors who are deeply committed to the integration of digital technology with teaching and learning. Authors were invited to discuss either a completed project, a work-in-progress, or a theoretical approach which aligned with one of the trends highlighted by the New Media Consortium’s NMC/CoSN Horizon Report: 2017 K-12 Edition, or to consider how the confluence of interest and action (Thompson, Martinez, Clinton, & Díaz, 2017) among school-university-community collaborative partners in the digital technology in education space resulted in improved outcomes for all—where “all” is broadly conceived and consists of the primary beneficiaries (the students) as well as the providers of the educational opportunities and various subsets of the community in which the integrative endeavors are enacted. The chapters in this volume are grouped into four sections: Section 1 includes two chapters that focus on computational thinking/coding in the arts (music and visual arts); Section 2 includes three chapters that focus on the instructor in the classroom, preservice teacher preparation, and pedagogy; Section 3 includes four chapters that focus on building the academic proficiency of students; and Section 4 includes two chapters that focus on the design and benefits of school-university-community collaboration.

Book Digital Literacy Made Simple

This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover and explore simple ways to teach digital literacy skills throughout the day and across various content areas, without a formal digital literacy curriculum. Digital literacy describes skills and ways of thinking related to the use of technology, including the technical competence to communicate, evaluate and interpret digital information, navigate websites and understand why all these skills are important. All students need these skills to be responsible participants in school and society. However, teaching digital literacy can be challenging for teachers who have many other content standards they must address. In this book, two innovative educators demonstrate how to weave digital literacy skills throughout instruction in small ways, with simple strategies to discuss, model, mentor, build a learning culture and create digital experiences to improve students’ digital literacy skills and habits. The book: • Defines the fundamental elements of digital literacy and why they are important for students to understand. • Offers teaching strategies for integrating digital literacy into lessons across a range of content areas. • Provides case studies of classroom teachers using mini-strategies to improve students’ digital literacy skills and habits. • Includes resources for teachers to use as they develop digital literacy strategies. Through the use of practical examples that all teachers can implement immediately, this book is a useful guide for any teacher working to encourage digital literacy in their students. Audience: Elementary and secondary teachers; instructional coaches; technology leaders; and school library media specialists

While we have teacher training to train teachers to use IT confidently and effectively in classroom, we should also teach our students to learn independently with the help of IT. In order to achieve the goal, we should develop some strategies to help our students to attain necessary IT skills. Most teachers think that it is the responsibility of the computer panel. Students are expected to be trained in the computer lessons and then apply their IT knowledge to other subjects. However, having attained certain IT skills does not mean those students can use IT to learn. It is better to train the students IT skills in subject context. So cooperation of different subjects is necessary. In this project a plan to coordinate different subjects in using IT in teaching will be formulated and the plan will be tried out in my school (a Government subsidized secondary school). The plan will only involve teachers and students in lower forms (S.1 to S.3). In this project the following areas will be discussed: The modification of the curriculum of Computer Literacy in lower forms, the cooperation between computer panel and other panels, teaching schedule and teaching plans of lessons using IT in different subjects and the evaluation of the effectiveness of the plan. Since not all the topics are suitable for using IT to learn, we should first choose some suitable topics from different subjects. Then we should identify the IT skills needed for these topics. Finally, we design projects on these topics. The Computer panel will be responsible for teaching students the relevant IT skills and other subject panels are responsible for providing the subject information for the project. For example, Sketchpad is a good software for demonstrating and exploring theories of Geometry. Instead of teaching Sketchpad in Mathematics lesson, it can be taught in computer Literacy. The students can then learn the software with hands-on exercise in computer room rather than watching the demonstration shown by the teacher in normal classroom. Furthermore, it saves mathematics teachers' time teaching software during lesson. In short, by doing this project students can apply their IT skills learnt in the computer lesson in other subjects to make their learning more effective. ii DOI: 10.5353/th_b2959990 Subjects: Computer literacy - Study and teaching (Secondary) - China - Hong Kong Junior high school students - China - Hong Kong - Attitudes High school teachers - China - Hong Kong - Attitudes Secondary students - Attitudes

Book The Computer in Reading and Language Arts

Download or read book The Computer in Reading and Language Arts written by Jay S. Blanchard and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this stimulating and readable book, educators--most of whom have long been involved in computer-based literacy research efforts--provide up-to-date information on computer-based activities in reading and language arts. These experts offer valuable goals and strategies for integrating computer technology into the reading/language arts curriculum, including suggestions for activities that should and should not be used. They also address the basics of developing, evaluating, and using computer-based reading instruction programs. The unique benefits of computer technology to teach English as a second language, writing skills, and the reading process to early readers are thoroughly explored. Innovative Uses of the Computer in the Language Arts Classroom Computerized readability assessment Reinforcement and instructional objectives Student interest profiles Class book files This exciting book--in a broader sense--corrects the failure by many to consider the literacy issues that invariably surround and govern computer use. While the types of computer-literacy environments differ, the literacy requirements are still the same--the computer and the user must communicate through text. Thus, The Computer in Reading and Language Arts provides essential understanding of the literacy requirements and environments involved in computer use.
