A tale of two classrooms
The watching skills curriculum
Traditionally.. “Children go to school to watch teachers work.”
Time-based Outcome-based Fragmented curriculum
Integrated and interdisciplinary curriculum
Focus: Memorization of discrete facts
Print as primary form of learning and assessment
Lesson focus mostly on lower-level Bloom’s
Teacher as judge – no one else sees student work
Textbook driven Grades are averaged
Passive learning Diversity in students is ignored
Learners work in isolation within 4 walls
Curriculum is irrelevant & meaningless to students
Teacher-centered Literacies in 3 R’s
Little student agency Driven by NCLB and standardized tests
Learning makeover
Learning makeoverTime-based Outcome-based Fragmented
curriculumIntegrated and interdisciplinary curriculum
Focus: Memorization of discrete facts
Focus: What students know, can do, and are like when details are forgotten
Print as primary form of learning and assessment
Performance, projects, and media used for learning and assessment
Lesson focus mostly on lower-level Bloom’s
Learning designed across Bloom’s
Teacher as judge – no one else sees student work
Self, peer and other assessments – audience expands to others
Textbook driven Research-driven Grades are averaged Grades based on what was learned
Passive learning Students responsible for their learning
Diversity in students is ignored
Curriculum capitalizes on student diversity
Learners work in isolation within 4 walls
Learners collaborate with others locally and globally
Curriculum is irrelevant & meaningless to students
Curriculum connected to student interest, experiences, talents, and background
Teacher-centered Student-centered Literacies in 3 R’s Multiple literacies
Little student agency Tremendous amount of freedom
Driven by NCLB and standardized tests
While observed, does not limit learning

Blended Learning
Brace yourself: This is not new
16th century Italian architectural education
18 century engineering education in France
1911Stanford Ed School Dean says adapt to real life and student needs
1916Report - Students should “learn by doing”
1918Project Method
1920’s-30’s Activity Movement
1950’s Life Adjustment Movement
1980’s Outcome-based Education

DecisionComponents
What do I know about my learners?
What do I want learners to be
able to do?
What other issues unique to this
context should I consider?
Is the organization ready and supportive of blended options?
Are there any barriers to technology-based delivery?
What learning activity would be best accomplished by which delivery method?

Create problem-based scenarios that require critical thinking
Monitor student progress while moving increasingly toward student ability to self monitor
Collaborate and tweak resources to deepen your knowledge, skills, and dispositions

Technology, we insist, is not what constitutes the revolutionary nature of this exciting moment.
It is, rather, the potential for shared and interactive learning that Tim Berners-Lee and other pioneers of the Internet built into its structure, its organization, its model of governance and sustainability.
The illiterates of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write
but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.
