Blogging alone doesn’t make my students better writers
The Tool Needs Context and Pedagogy
It takes all three areas
to effectively integrate technology & improve learning.
BehaviorismDesired outcomes are
created through response/stimuli
Cognitivism
Learning is viewed as a process of inputs, managed in short term memory, and coded for long-term recall.
ConstructivismLearners create knowledge in process of understanding
experiences

• Information changes quickly
• Connections to stay current is what’s really important
• Learning is actuated knowledge
• Learning is the process of plugging into new knowledge sources
• The pipe is more important than what’s in the pipe
