There’s nothing like learning something new to remind you of what your students might be feeling or to refresh your pedagogical practice. The post below is linked to the Wikipedia article for Constructivism (learning theory). I wrote the reflection first and was surprised that my learning experience linked easily with the article’s explanation to the nature of constructive learning

LEARNING JOOMLA

I decided to teach myself how to use the Content Management System, Joomla for a number of reasons – I needed a new way to present the school web page, it fits in with my Master of Education studies in Online Education, I was curious how Content Management Systems work and it gave me a chance to be involved in active learning.
For me it has been a typical learning experience (responsibility for learning) in that I experienced the whole range of feelings and thoughts when faced with a challenge:

• at first it was all too hard
• I doubted the point of it and wondered if I should change topics
• I struggled to find the right information
• I had to change my preconceived views of what I could do (background and culture of learner)

As my daughter walked past and heard me exclaim “This is too hard!” she repeated  the message I had always told her while working on her maths problems “If it is too hard then maybe you are going about it in the wrong way.” My experience was that math problems have a way of working out if you are on the right track so if it is too long and complicated you’re probably barking up the wrong tree. As it turns out, it was good advice and along with this blog (quoted below) that helped me see that I was trying to change something that wasn’t meant to be changed.

“Joomla? Getting the right modules (in Drupal “blocks”) in the right place on template can be nothing short of a nightmare, especially if you get things set up in one template and then decided to try another template.”

I had to “accommodate” my approach and look for a simpler way to start to get to know Joomla. I stopped trying to change  how Joomla should look (at least for now) and concentrated on the content.

Gradually as I learned to place content I learned more about Joomla in total and I developed a better understanding of the other features. I felt I was beginning to make progress, but with each step

• I needed to practice it more than once,
• I needed a lot of instruction (online tutorials)
• repeating it helped me to understand the concepts and relationships
• success led to more success
• as I mastered certain aspects I really wanted to share that knowledge. (It reminds me so much of my classroom where the students want to share everything they have done which is one of the reasons why it is important to have class blogs).

MENTAL MODEL – LEARNING CURVE

My mental model of the  “learning curve”, is that it isn’t a curve at all. It starts pretty much as a steep cliff face where there is lots of input that doesn’t necessarily make sense and so progress is very slow. You need motivation, perseverance and stick-ability at this stage to keep going. The  next stage is a little less steep but progress is still slow and input at the “zone of proximal development” is required. Eventually however you reach the stage where you get some momentum and you move along much more quickly and the knowledge you have already acquired is useful in learning new modules.  Finally you come to the top of the learning mountain where you have enough skills and background to use intuitive learning to add new knowledge quickly.

I think it is important to have mental model of learning so that you know what to expect and understand the range of feelings that a challenge will evoke. It is important to know that if you keep going the odds are that you will learn.

“We loved it, so much better than normal school! ”

This is the student response to inter-school debating online. I thought it was a fantastic experience all round – for teachers and students. Admittedly it was fairly nerve racking at first and I think the teachers were more nervous than the students for the first couple of debates but by the time we had completed three or four it became more routine and quite easy to manage.

The success was due to a number of key factors not the least being a very cooperative and keen partner school. Special thanks to @rakt for his help and organisation. It certainly did help to work with a school who had had debating experience and we learnt a lot throughout the whole competition. Our students were novices with no experience or training in the art of debating.

How does it Work?

The Draw

Create a draw with the debate statements. It is best if you have an affirmative and negative for each debate and then they can practise against each other and it helps prepare for rebuttal statements. In other words if you have 3 Debates you need 6 teams at each school.

Preparing the Arguments

Each team worked together on a shared Google Document that I prepared as a template with some indicators of what would be expected from each speaker. The teams had an “in school” practise debate against each other. They also practised their speeches against the clock to make sure they had the right amount of material.

Format

Each team had 3 speakers who had 90 seconds to present their arguments and rebut the opposing teams arguments. We allowed half an hour for each debate but this gave us plenty of time between debates. Older or more experienced students could have longer. The chairperson was provided by the affirmative team and each school was responsible for their own time keeper. We adjudicated our own students solely on their manner according to agreed criteria and compared scores on the screen while the students turned away or while the projectors were blanked out.

SKYPE Connection

We were fortunate to have a great Skype connection which we had tested well before hand. I had purchased a microphone especially for Skype calls that made it even easier. It allowed the students more freedom to present as it was much more effective in picking up their voices and easier to mute than using the internal microphone on the laptops.

In Summary

Debating is one of those authentic learning experiences where students develop higher order thinking skills. They work together as a team and it is clear which students are team players able to support and encourage others. They develop confidence in speaking and listening skills. There are so many teaching and learning opportunities within such a rich learning environment.

Skype enhances the experience by allowing inter-school debating without the  restriction of cost or location. It brings a whole new level of excitement and engagement when the students debate against another school. Our next debating exercise will be international with a school in New Zealand and I can see that it Skpe Debating will be a continuing part of my school program afterall it is “so much better than normal school”!

I started this post with a view to have the “Here Comes Learning” presentation below, support my staff Professional Development presentation about the importance of blogging. I’m sure a number of teachers still wonder why they should consider starting a blog. I spent some time working through the considerable information that Will Richardson presents in just the first twelve minutes (the rest of the presentation will have to wait for another post) and now I realise the question is much bigger than just blogging or wikis.

It’s not “Why should I blog?” but “Why should I be connected?”

Will Richardson is a renown author and leader in the field of Web2.0 technologies in education. He was a presenter at the NECC09 in Washington and I, fortunately, was able to attend the session. His message to teachers is that they must be part of the huge technological shift that is happening, that they must use and own the technologies so that they understand them and so that they will ready to teach students what they need to know about using web2.0 technology in ways that are effective for learning.

Here Comes Learning by W.Richardson and SNBeach

Here Comes Learning – Wiki with more links to this presentation

My summary of the Importance of Teachers being Connected by Will Richardson

• Students use the online world for social reasons but, also, increasingly to learn things -see the video about the bow drill which Will mentions throughout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuFsDN8dsJU&feature=channel_page
• Will quotes Clay Shirky when he says that the ability to form global groups about things we are passionate about which include all levels of expertise and the power of the group in an online world are part of signiificant change – a “Techtonic Shift.
• We have incredible access to raw data (see the Iran tweets, photos). We no longer depend on the traditional news sources to know what is happening. We need skills to critically analyse the information for importance and accuracy.
• These new technologies are having an impact on businesses. Companies monitor the conversation and how people form groups around their products. This is easily seen in Twitter when businesses follow and respond to those who use their product name in their tweets.
• Information Literacy has changed not just the way we write (Twitter and blogs) but the way we read and critically analyse information. New literacy skills are needed and suggested by the National Council of English Teachers :

Develop proficiency with the tools of technology Build relationships with others to pose and solve problems collaboratively and cross-culturally Design and share information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes Manage, analyze, and synthesize multiple streams of simultaneous information Create, critique, analyze, and evaluate multimedia texts Attend to the ethical responsibilities required by these complex environments

• Students are using the technologies Primarily to Socialise but now they are beginning to connect in interest based ways tapping into the millions of potential teachers, who are out there, when and where they need to do it

The problem becomes that many children/students have no adults that can teach them how to use technologies for ways that are effective for learning. Teachers need to understand these technologies, understand the shifts, own the technologies and make connections for themselves.They need to take time to immerse themselves in internet type environments to meet the challenge of providing students with the skills they will need in the 21st Century.

The second part of this presentation was concerned with the Professional Development model that will support teachers to develop deep seated skills and connections.

The Mathtrain is Eric Marcos. He is an amazing teacher because he inspires his students to learn and in particular to love maths. My travel buddy, Jenny Ashby and I had the pleasure of meeting him at NECC09 and to hear him present. He was at the Camtasia Studio Booth ( the makers of JING great free screen capture and screen casting toos)  showing how his students use screen casting to share their mathematical knowledge.

I first became a fan of Eric after listening to an Ed Tech Crew Podcast where he was interviewed. I have mentioned him in an earlier blog post when I was looking for examples of students articulating their learning. I think this is why I admire Eric so much. I am a strong believer in students using their voice to tell us what they know. I am sure it is one of the crucial steps in constructing knowledge. Using screen casting, as Eric does, not only builds student’s confidence as they tell an audience what they know,  but helps them crystallize their learning into solid knowledge.

Eric played a number of examples of the student’s work which can be seen on his Mathtrain.tv site but he talked passionately about the students and their enthusiasm for the process. I know that his students love the screen casting and publishing their work, but would guess that they also love the feeling that comes when they know they have learnt something new. The process that Eric Marcos goes through with his students lets them experience that feeling every time they create that snapshot of their math’s lessons.

• maths has suddenly become much more language focused
• Penelope is now the one in control
• using the screen casting lets Penelope realise her learning it completes a process
• screen casting to an authentic audience makes the learning more “imperative”

Screen casting is not a magic cure. It is clear that Eric Marcos does a lot of Math teaching before the students hit the screen casting stage, but it certainly changes the stakes for the students by giving them the opportunity to articulate their learning to an authentic audience.

Blogging like anything else has protocols and “political correctness” that you become aware of once you are part of the environment. Linking is one the big must dos, not just because it is the right thing to give credit if you have used others ideas and writings, but for self interest because it helps people find your blog as well.

Others have written about this in a far more eloquent way than I have so the following links are ones that I have found practical and very informative.

This post from the Problogger clearly explains why you should link in your blog and how it can help you develop an audience.

The Edublogger tells you how to link to other blogs and gives the following reasons for linking

1. A person’s blog if you mention a blogger.
   
2. The post if you are talking about a particular post on a blog”

Linking is an important part of blogging but do it for the right reasons. Don’t overlink or it’s a bit like crying wolf. Readers will only follow your blog if you have genuine content with relevant links.

We had our first Skype video conference with students in New Zealand. Four Australian students interviewed four students in New Zealand about being leaders in their schools. The Aussie students are using the interviews as part of our school’s weekly radio show. We recorded the audio of the conference and captured the video. Seeing the students face to face makes such a difference to the interpersonal connections you form.

I learnt a lot in this first “official” Skype Conference so here is a list of things I would change for next time:

1. I was relying on the wireless network but according to my techie if I had of used a Ethernet cable the bandwidth would have been better and the sound more reliable
2. We had four students interview four students – for such a formal interview as the one the students had scripted for the radio show this was awkward. Next time I would only have two at a time so that the students can all fit on the screen and generate more of a personal conversation.
3. We wrote the script and shared it with the New Zealand students on Google Docs. This worked beautifully. All parties had access to the script and last minute changes but we didn’t have time for our NZ students to script in any answers to our questions. Next time we would collaborate more on the writing.

blps-1_09-school-captains

This is only the beginning of our relationship with New Zealand and just the first of many Skype conferences. It is a fantastic way to flatten the classroom walls and connect students to their peers all over the world. If you would like to connect with us please let me know.

This is the final blog of a series about using Web 2.0 technologies in the classroom. This section looks at  our school’s “practice run” using blogs in the classroom and the lessons we learnt.

BEGINNING BLOGGERS

We had a clear purpose, and support from the school leadership to move forward on the weblogs. Once we started our blogs, eleven in all, it became clear that we needed some guidelines to define the tone and purpose of the class blog pages. One of the surprising comments from teacher who looked at the work the others were doing but wasn’t actually a participant was that “this could be used by parents to compare teachers.” Clearly this wasn’t the tone that we wanted.

In retrospect and for the future the main philosophy /guiding principals should be:

• The class blogs are collective blogs to give you and your students a voice and a way to communicate with the local and global community. For example if you browse through “ejourney with technokids” you can see the opportunities that Web 2.0 has opened up for communicating and collaborating. According to the interview transcript shown on the blog, the students particularly enjoy talking to students in another country.
• The class blog is an avenue for students’ to construct meaning through reflection and sharing their learning with an authentic audience. TaNuj^’s Weblog is an excellent example of a student reflection. It is also for teachers as can be seen by Dean Groom’s response to the student blog.
• The blog can add impetus to the Inquiry Process through collaboration with experts in the field. [In M3’s blog on Sustainability the students each give their ideas in their own words adding to the knowledge of the individual.
• It is an opportunity to showcase your grade and the work that you and your students do, and to keep parents and the community informed.

However the impact was immediate. The communication about classroom work in the first few blogs was far more than had gone home in the past year. It was visual, informative and varied according to the class, just as each class is different each blog had an individual feel to it and the added bonus was that the first comments were from students.

Conclusion

My initial idea sounded like a simple solution to a problem. Now I understand how complex it really is and how much work there is still to do. I also understand that it was absolutely necessary to take this step…leap, …plunge into web 2.0. In fact I find it difficult to image a classroom that should not be using the web 2.0 tools in some way. I am inclined to agree with Hargadon when he said it was bigger than the printing press

One last example of web 2.0 in education, and perhaps my favorite, is an infant grade in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan in Canada. The students have pre-service teachers as blogging buddies. The student teachers follow one child’s writing in Mrs. Cassidy’s blog throughout the year, responding to the child’s blogs, but noting the development in writing over the year. A win win situation all around. In an interview Cassidy explains what she does in her classroom and how each student has a blog, which is an online portfolio, and how blogging buddies work with her students. (Cassidy, WOW2 Show #91, 2008). Clearly Cassidy is an outstanding educator with very good technological skill. She has many awards to her credit, but Cassidy has shown that student age is no barrier to using Web 2.0 tools with students and how powerful it can be for communicating, creating and collaborating.

Convert Your Web Page to Web 2.0 and Your Staff Along with It. #1

This is the first in a series of blogs describing our school’s journey to using Web 2.0 technology in our classrooms . It includes the background research, reflection on a trial run, and problems and possible solutions.

Why Change to Web 2.0?

What is Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 is not a new invention but a shift in the use and capabilities of the World Wide Web. Previously the Internet was used mostly to retrieve information but now, due to changes in the software, users can easily and without technical knowledge participate as contributors, collaborate online and have access to online software.

“These concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies (the practice of catgorising content through tags).” (Stilton Studios, 2008)

Teachers and students who participate in Web 2.0 have powerful tools to construct knowledge, collaborate locally and globally and to be creative with many powerful and free online tools (think, communicate  and create).

Part 1: The People:

Since discovering web2.0 (blogging, online personal learning networks, wikis) I can’t help but feel all teachers should know and use these tools. I’m not sure if it is part of human nature that we have to share and bring others onboard to think the way we do because it is reaffirming or because we believe it is important and our duty to nurture our peers.  I feel there is an urgency to inform teachers about the educational online world. So much is going on in the “webasphere” especially in education, that if teachers are not connected then I fear they are being left behind and can only provide an outdated education program.

Part 2: Community  & Communication

The web site at our school is professionally designed and provides lots of information for parents and prospective families about the history of the school, the curriculum it offers, newsletters, contact details etc. However the communication is directed one way- out to the community. Even then only one or two people in the school have the technical knowledge required to upload information. Putting student work on the web page for viewing is limited by the time it takes one person to do it and without any avenue for feedback, one wonders if anyone even sees it.

Part 3: The Solution:

To solve both problems I believed we could convert the web page to weblogs and by giving the staff ownership of their own class blog they would begin to learn about web 2.0. This sounds simple, but of course there are many complications and responsibilities when you combine publishing material to the wider community, students work, and multiple teachers with a wide range of skills and knowledge.

•    Student safety and privacy,

•    school integrity, and

•    teacher’s professional image

…all have to be considered and protected. And this is a big change in the underlying philosophy of a school, which until now has had almost complete control of material that was published or written to the school community. The school now has to consider the “digital identity” that it is creating.

The Australian, Victorian Department of Education has links to documents, advise and help guides for schools and teachers who want to start their own web 2.0 pages. I have linked to some of the material below.

Documents School Must Have

Internet Acceptable Use Policy for Students

Student Images Agreement

Acceptable Use Policy for School (or Department’s) ICT Systems

Documentation Teachers Should Read

Copyright Information Sheet for Schools(National Copyright Unit, 2008)

Student safety and blogging(DEECD, 2008)

Global Teacher – Blog Directory and Web 3.0 Community(Global Teacher)

It is important to have the essential cyber safety rules and protocols in place before starting weblogs to protect student online identity. For example

• Student photos if the student can be easily recognized will not be used
• Only first name and grade, or initials, or an online name will be used
• All comments will be moderated by the teacher before appearing on the page

In our trial period we decided to follow the Department’s(DEECD, 2008) advice with becoming “proficient with your own teacher blog” (DEECD, 2008) before creating any student blogs. From my own experience the best way to understand how blogging can facilitate learning is to have your own blog and this is one time in teaching ICT that I think it is important for teachers to have prior learning before introducing it to their students.

Audio e-Learning – Helping students make sense of their learning!

How often do we ask students to rewrite information in their own words only to find what they have written is nonsensical or merely a rearrangement of the original text with some synonyms thrown in (the clever ones can do this with the online thesaurus) ? It is my experience that students are reasonably good at collecting information but much poorer at making sense of it. They can travel three quarters of the distance on their inquiry-learning journey but fail to fully complete it. They struggle to use the information they have collected to reconstruct the meaning for themselves. They might appear to have done the work but have not really answered their query or created new knowledge for themselves. However, when you ask students to paraphrase or read what they have written they will admit that they are not sure what it means or that it does not make sense. Gordon Wells emphasizes the importance of speech and writing as a means of building and clarifying knowledge.

“the fact that the processes of thinking, such as categorizing, hypothesizing, reasoning, and evaluating, are not only realized in language, in the sense of being made manifest in speech and writing, but also actually constructed and improved through its mediating means.” (WELLS, 2001)

• Students speak before they write and if we really want to know what they are thinking then the first form of communication should be oral especially for primary students who are still in the early stages of developing their writing skills.
• Finding the words to verbally report the meaning is different to finding the words to make a written report.
• Writing is more difficult than speaking and so students are much more likely to write things that do not make sense than they are to say them.
• When they speak they get immediate feedback by listening to themselves and realize that what they have said doesn’t make sense or that they don’t understand the material enough to articulate it.

While planning the curriculum for students in ICT my goal was to have the final product a spoken one so that students were more likely to access and construct information and new knowledge. I wanted to have students more involved in the process by making the realization of new information spoken not just written.

Two examples of Audio e-Learning in Practice

1. PowerPoint with Oral Commentary

My first exercise was to have grade five and six students reflect on what they had found out in their first inquiry unit. The students had completed a PowerPoint with information about their learning styles (visual, auditory or tactile/kinesthetic) and in which ways they were intelligent according to The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (Wikipedia) defined by Howard Gardner. They had used online surveys to gather the information and wrote about the results on the slides, noting whether they thought the results were an accurate reflection or not. The final requirement was to create a verbal commentary as a summary of the information on each slide, to enhance the information presented, but not read it word for word to the audience. The students created a series of short sound files and inserted them onto the appropriate slide to play automatically within the slide show.

Technically this was not difficult, but it did challenge a number of students in terms of making the final step in their learning, constructing knowledge for themselves from the information and linking it to their experiences.

The final product with the verbal commentary was insightful and much more engaging for the audience who are usually teachers and other students. Listening to the presentations quickly gave the teacher a clear indication of the student’s critical thinking skills and at which stage of the Bloom’s Taxonomy they are operating. (CHURCHES, 2008)

2. Radio Show

The students at my school have a live one-hour radio show on a community radio station each week (97.7FM 3SER Wed 2-3pm). All students in grade 5 and 6 who want to present on the radio have the opportunity to do. The show involves script writing, collaboration with peers (they work in teams of 4), careful selection of music and practice to deliver their scripts with a credible and interesting voice.

The program has certain elements that students are expected to talk about such as their interests, a community oriented subject and a link to the current classroom inquiry unit but it can include other original material such as stories, poems, songs etc. The radio show provides a genuine audience for their work. The focus is clearly on their oral expression and the digital recording equipment is the key to helping students evaluate and improve their skills.
The students take advantage of every opportunity to interview special visitors to the school. They use the pre-recorded interviews on their show and if applicable spend time editing and adding sound effects or music to enhance the interview. Creating surveys and analyzing the results to share with their radio audience has been another popular topic for some students. This is a very powerful learning experience integrating a number of key curriculum areas with genuine purpose, written (script) and verbal (presentation on radio) articulation of results and authentic audience.

The final element of that has been added this semester is that the students select a 2-3 minute interval of their show to Podcast to iTunes . Students are excited that their work is available in the “real world” and that their parents and friends can download their personal podcast.

As the year went on it became easier to see how to add an audio component to the lessons. More importantly it became clear that students needed to make audio files as a part of their everyday work to help them develop literacy and thinking skills. There are more examples of audio e-learning on our school blog from various grade levels using a variety of programs.

I have always been a strong believer in the importance of students’ oral language as a key step in their literacy development and in clarifying their thinking while learning. I also believe, as teachers, we tend to gloss over its importance, by not giving enough time in the school program for specific oral language development. For example the Early Years Literacy Program (used in Victorian primary schools in Australia) prescribes an hour for reading and an hour for writing every school day for students in grades P -4. Where is the dedicated time for developing oral language, especially in the early years?
Last year I was the full time ICT teacher for students in P-6 at my school and in an effort to improve my own skills in planning for oral language development I took every opportunity to introduce an audio aspect to the ICT lessons that I taught.
Below are some examples of how to integrate audio in the classroom.

Audio e-Learning and the Curriculum

It is a logical step that we should be spending more time developing students oral language skills if we want them to be good at using language to help process thinking at higher levels. I have selected the major teaching emphases for speaking recommended by the West Australian First Steps Oral Language Program to show how we can implement a digital audio e-learning program for students.
The West Australian First Steps, Oral Language Developmental Continuum was designed to provide teaching strategies to ensure that students achieve the National English Outcomes set out in the National Profiles. (EVANS & ALLEN, 1996).
The list below features an overview of the aspects of oral language that should be developed specifically to improve the student’s ability to use the speaking component of language. The features are common to all phases of development but of course the level of performance and material would become more complex as students progressed.

Major Teaching Emphases (EVANS & ALLEN, 1996)

Components, which are common to all phases of development.

• focus on language structures and patterns through songs, chants, rhymes and stories and the aesthetic features of writing
• develop student’s ability to adjust their language to suit particular purposes, audiences and situations – structure experiences that challenge students to select and use different styles of language to suit a range of audiences and purposes
• develop and extend student’s use of vocabulary in different contexts -promote the use of subject-specific vocabulary
• help students to give and receive simple explanations, information and instructions – help students to give and respond to increasingly complex explanations and instructions

Audio e-Learning

Examples of how Audio e-Learning can enhance learning

• Record and listen to students – Share with the grade, Podcast those that are popular and publish to web page. (Arrowhead Elementary School) is a great example
• Audio e-learning is the ideal way for students to practise language to suit particular audiences. Recorded can work can be shared with the grade, parents, year level, school level, published to the web and or used on a Radio Show. Recording allows for the students to receive feedback and to polish their performance.
• When students create a commentary for their Inquiry learning topics, they have the opportunity to demonstrate the use of subject specific language in context.
• Screencasting using simple recorders that come with Interactive whiteboards (Notebook Recorder is part of the SMARTBoard software) or free software downloaded from the internet such as “Jing” is an great way to create a procedural text that has a visual and verbal element. Sceencasting records all the movement on the computer screen while it records the student’s oral commentary. Eric Marcos’s Mathtrain website is an excellent example of screencasting.  (Mathtrain.tv)

There are many ways that technology can help students develop the components of oral language. The list I have provided is not exhaustive and is growing everyday as technology improves. It can be as simple as attaching a microphone to the computer and recording a sound file for a PowerPoint presentation or as complex as blogging with a mobile phone (Year 10 Agriculture).  Photostory and Voicethread are both excellent, free, software where the students’ voice can be the main form of communication.
