Googlios: Google Sites + ePortfolios = 21st Century Teaching and Learning
For the direct link on dotsub click here
This 20 minute video was produced for the 4th Annual Inter/National Virtual (Synchronous /Asynchronous) K-12 Online Conference.
For this year's schedule see:
Abstract:
As blogs, wikis, and podcasts have become more mainstream, it is important that educators step back to see how we, as professionals, are best using these tools to serve our student's learning needs. If these modern technologies are going to be sustained in contemporary pedagogy, it is time that we "kick it up a notch" and be able to tie these tools to a higher theme and to learning theories. In other words, rather than using technology for technology's sake, we need to be supported by a new 21st-century foundation of learning theory. Through a screencast, webcam, and Power Point video, this presentation will offer a model on how one educator has come to understand and organize these tools to support a 21st-century constructivist and connectivist approach to "bridge the divide" in educating our digital natives. Using Google Sites as a main hub, this presentation will show how students can mash together and showcase a variety of other free Google services to organize their own Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) and "build bridges" to form their Personal Learning Networks (PLNs). This presentation will shed light on a model that shows a relationship between emerging tools and learning theories, and between PLEs, PLNs, and ePortfolios.
