INSTRUCTOR NOTES

This chapter addresses ISTE Standards for Teachers 2, 4, and 5.Chapter Goal Learn about the uses of technology and media to ensure successful student learning.Learning Outcomes

By the end of the chapter, students should be able to do the following:

1.Identify key components of the framework for academic and career learning and how technology and media are integrated into today’s classrooms.

2.Explain the role of the digital teacher, the tools and resources available to fully integrate technology into teaching, and the guidelines and standards for teaching content knowledge and skills.

3.Describe the role of the digital learner.

4.Discuss the framework for academic and career learning literacies.

5.Describe effective environments.

6.Describe the key concerns regarding copyright law for educational uses.Chapter Overview Chapter 1 is an introduction and overview for the textbook. The chapter sets the stage for learning in today’s schools as the authors discuss the influence of technology and media on the roles of teachers and students in the classroom. The text expresses the need for students to master core skills and gain knowledge for academic and career learning. Teachers are thereby challenged with facilitating this process by selecting appropriate media and technologies, and creating learning experiences that effectively use available tools and resources.Chapter 1 opens with a discussion of a Framework for Academic and Career Learning, The Digital Teacher, The Digital Learner, Framework for Academic and Career Learning Literacies, and Effective Learning Environments, followed by Copyright Concerns. The authors point out the difference between technology and instructional technology and discuss the status of the technology gap. Additionally, the chapter addresses the six types of media with examples of how those media are utilized as instructional materials. Technology standards for teachers and students are introduced throughout the chapter following the International Society of Technology in Education.Using This Chapter Chapter 1 provides background information about today’s classrooms, teachers, and students and could be viewed as an advance organizer for the remainder of the book. Undergraduate students in teacher preparation programs and in-service teachers will most likely prefer dealing with those parts of Chapter 1 that relate directly to the role of the teacher and to the teaching process. If the book is being used as an introduction to graduate study in our field, then Chapters 1 and 2 can be used as a conceptual framework for the course.Professional Vocabulary ASSURE MODEL- A structure to guide teachers through the process of creating lessons that achieve the goals of effectively using technology and promoting learning.BLENDED LEARNING – A combination of face-to-face instruction with distance learning. 2 / 4

INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES

Suggested Materials

• Locate a short video about the progression of technology advancement; there are many

high quality videos available for free on the Internet.

• Have students bring their mobile devices, laptops, and/or smart phones to class.

Introduction Suggested Activity. Begin the course with an informal discussion using the following questions: How has technology changed the last 10 years, 20 years?How do you use technology today in your personal, professional, or academic life?How did your students use technology in their high schools?How do your students currently use technology in and out of school?You might also have your students view a video on the subject of technology advancement.Such videos can be streamed for free from a variety of Internet sources such as YouTube.Framework for Academic and Career Learning Technology and learning for tomorrow are introduced early in the chapter. The relationship between technology and skills and knowledge needed to meaningfully prepare students are addressed early on. It should be noted to that technology is not a classroom cure-all but does offer benefits to teachers and students. Instructional technology and the technology gap are points for discussion in this section.Suggested Activity. Ask students to read and discuss the “Technology for All Learners” article about using technology tools to differentiate instruction. In small groups, have them discuss low-tech, medium tech, and high tech devices that could be utilized in each of the students’ content areas. Each small group could then share their findings with the whole class.Media Formats Suggested Activities.

• Revel Interactive application question 1.2 has students identify the types of media and the

connection to media formats and instructional materials. Students could individually complete the questions and then share their reasoning for their selections in small groups.

• Share the connection between instructional materials for each content area and the type of

technology and/or media that would be used. Have the students look around the classroom or flip through the text for instructional material ideas to share with the class.Possible discussion questions: Which examples are technology-based? Does technology improve the quality of instructional materials?The Digital Teacher Teacher-centered instruction uses technology and media to support the presentation of instruction. In an upcoming chapter more focus will be spent on how to integrate technology and media into instruction. Students should begin to understand the relationship between the ASSURE model and the ISTE Standards for Teachers.Suggested Activities.

• To model being a digital teacher, have students review through formative assessment

software such as Poll Everywhere or Kahoot!. Student responses are displayed in real- time and can be used to foster discussion and clear up any misconceptions.

• Have your students observe a K-12 teacher and report the learning activities in which the

teacher used technology. Or, interview a teacher to find out about their experiences with instructional technology.
