Digital Writing, Digital Teaching - Integrating New Literacies into the Teaching of Writing » Blog Archive » Quick Quote in MEA Voice Just today, a colleague of mine was telling me that I need to be better at self-promotion. So, here goes… Future teachers (college students now) use blogs and wikis to share their own writing—so they can someday help their own students do the same. “Teachers are teaching the digital generation,” explained Troy Hicks, assistant professor of English Language and Literature at Central Michigan University, where he instructs preservice teachers. (MEA Voice, February 2009, p. 10) Earlier this year, I was interviewed by a reporter for the MEA as a part of their special issue on teaching with technology.

Met deze instructie leer je: Matrix of NETS, AASL standards, and activities The definition of information literacy has become more complex as resources and technologies have changed. The continuing expansion of information demands that all individuals acquire the thinking skills that will enable them to learn on their own.

Alfabetización Informacional del sitio web »SCONUL siete pilares de la alfabetización informacional In 1999, The SCONUL Working Group on Information Literacy published “Information skills in higher education: a SCONUL position paper” (SCONUL, 1999), introducing the Seven Pillars of Information Skills model. Since then, the model has been adopted by librarians and teachers around the world as a means of helping them to deliver information skills to their learners. In 2012 the model was updated and expanded to reflect more clearly the range of different terminologies and concepts which we now understand as “Information Literacy”. In order for the model to be relevant to different user communities and ages, the new model is presented as a generic “core” model for Higher Education, to which a series of “lenses”, representing the different groups of learners, can be applied. In the 21st century, information literacy is a key attribute for everyone, irrespective of age or experience.

Reflections on Creating "The Digital Writing Workshop" on Prezi The Presentation This Prezi moves through a series of ideas from the book, beginning with the cover, and then through three sections that (roughly) cover the ideas of being digital, crafting digital writing, and teaching in a digital writing workshop, followed by a photo from the classroom of my friend and colleague, Aram Kabodian. Depending on how much time I have, how many questions I want to entertain while talking, and the overall goals I have for the audience I am presenting to, I flex my speed and delivery of the presentation. On the first "section" (for lack of better term), I show the book cover. I can tell some anecdote about the writing of the book, and I always focus on how the principles of the writing workshop—choice and inquiry, conferring and response, author's craft, publication, and assessment—are the primary components of the cover, not the fingers typing on the keyboard.

Middelbaar onderwijs – Profielwerkstuk – Nederlandse Vereniging voor Verouderings Onderzoek Enkele jaren geleden is het profielwerkstuk (PWS) verplicht gesteld op alle middelbare scholen in Nederland. Een belangrijk onderdeel van het PWS is het doen van onderzoek. Dit is voor wetenschappelijke instituten een gouden kans. De bakermat voor de wetenschap ligt immers in het voortgezet onderwijs. Leerlingen in het voortgezet onderwijs hebben echter weinig of geen ervaring met het zelf verzinnen en doen van onderzoek. Want hoe bedenk je onderzoek? Mitä tapahtuu, kun googlaat? Lue tämä ja seitsemän muuta tietoa hakukoneista Datakeskus Suomessa mahdollistaa kyselyn käsittelemisen paikallisesti. Jos googlehaun tieto kulkeutuu Kuopiosta Haminaan, se taittaa lyhyemmän matkan, matka taittuu nopeammin ja voi kuluttaa vähemmän energiaa. Tuolloin reitti on myös luotettavampi kuin merikaapeleiden tai ulkomailla sijaitsevien solmukohtien kautta.

Guidelines on Information Literacy for Lifelong Learning by Jesús Lau Final Draft These guidelines have been compiled by the Information Literacy Section (InfoLit) of IFLA with the aim of providing a pragmatic framework for those professionals who need or are interested in starting an information literacy program. The guidelines will aid information professionals engaged in educational programs, i.e., basic and higher education, in their efforts to meet their current information needs. However, most of the concepts, principles and procedures can be applied with minimal adaptation to any library setting. Information professionals working in all types of libraries should have as one of their main institutional goals the facilitation of users’ efforts to acquire information competencies.

Digital Is...what exactly? Here at the Digital Is website, we aim to collect and create resources, stories and reflections on what it means to write, teach, and learn today. We invite thoughtful educators from schools, universities, libraries, museums, and youth-serving institutions to join us in this effort. For all of us, this is a moment when new digital tools and Internet environments have given writers/learners a rich set of new opportunities to compose, create, and publish. As these new tools take their place alongside our beloved older tools—our pencils, our journals, our print publications—the National Writing Project seeks to host a place for educators and writers to stop and reflect on what it all might mean for our work as educators. Please join us.
