My Students

Today's learner is a hands-on, do-two-things-at-once, give me information now type of learner. Students don't typically get excited to curl up with a book. But when offered an iPad and a challenge...they literally hustle to get started.

The students at our school love school.

They love learning and demonstrating their knowledge and skills through the arts and technology. Our school is based on the belief that we are all learners for life. Visual and media literacy skills will permeate all subjects at the elementary school. Reflective teaching and learning will be expected in every classroom with an emphasis on building a community of learners to be thinkers and creators, and who are preparing for college or professional careers. At the same time the school will prepare students to be participating members of a democratic society by engaging them as stakeholders in their education. The spirit of intellectual curiosity is encouraged in and through the arts.

My Project

With iPads on hand at all times, my students will be able to participate in peer editing of their essays. This could be done real time using Google Docs. Additionally, a group of students can work on one iPad, mapping out their ideas and sharing strategies in math.

Right now, I am using my own personal iPad in my classroom and can see the positive impact it has on my students' learning.

I hope that I can bring in more of these valuable learning tools, so that my students can prepare their minds for college and career. Groups of students work together to create rigorous products of learning. They can use these iPads to research, collaborate on writing assignments, create multi-media projects, and be champions of cooperative learning.
