Disengaged students are not a problem – more often they are the result of disengaging teaching and learning practices which forget that, as educators, we teach students not subjects.

How often is student engagement integral to your school’s planning? How empowered are your students?

There has been a lot of advocacy for change to the very nature of schooling to better address our modern digital world and whilst we tend to fundamentally support these ideas putting them into practice is not always an easy matter.

Come along and discuss the issues as we view and share great examples of schools that are moving beyond “factory” education and employing new approaches that empower students and lift engagement levels.

No device in itself can transform learning - teachers and students do that through constructive engagement with rich learning tasks. However the iPad does offer educators and schools an opportunity to think different and in the process transform teaching and learning within the classroom.

The purpose of this session is to examine two types of Apps: those that facilitate effective administration practices and those that allow students to control the path of their own learning to produce higher order engagement coupled with deeper meaning and understanding.

Come along and share examples of how the use of Apps is transforming teaching and learning in the classroom.

Easy to get excited by an App, but what is its educational value?

What are best Apps?

No such thing as a best App. The best App for you or your students to use is whatever matches the required task.

The educational use of technology began in schools around 30 years ago, yet its use is still not evident in all classrooms. Conferences are full of teachers at “beginning” levels but we should be well past this stage, so why aren’t we? Anyone involved in Professional Learning for staff is well aware of the diverse range of abilities and needs within our profession. So what is holding teachers back? Why don’t they get IT? How do we get everyone onboard with IT?

The time is nigh as teachers who are not onboard with the educational use of teaching and learning with technology will have difficulty satisfying the requirements of state Teacher Institute accreditation, National Standards for Teachers and Australian Curriculum implementation.

In this session we will identify the roadblocks and discuss strategies to get past them to build a more homogeneous staff in our digital age schools.

Digital Age

Education

Page 29: Leading a digital school kiosks 2013

Change is a natural by-product of a shift in time - so with the amount of change that has occurred our lifetime, no teacher in 2013 should be working in a school that resembles the school they attended as a student. A digital age requires digital age pedagogy and associated teaching and learning spaces – how well equipped is your school in this regard?

The process of change can be long and tiring with many hurdles but it should also be a rewarding experience. In this session we will identify the essential infrastructure decisions that shape the direction of learning within a modern digital school.

Come along and share examples of innovative learning spaces, ideas, experiences and ask questions you may have on leading your school in a digital age.

It’s not the technology itself that makes the difference

New buildings are also only part of the solution.

Rule of three for third millennium learning spaces •No more than three walls so that there is never full enclosure and the space is multifaceted rather than just open.• No fewer than three points of focus so that the "stand-and-deliver" model gives way to increasingly varied groups learning and presenting together (which by the way requires a radical rethinking of furniture).• Ability to accommodate three teachers/adults with their children. The old standard size of about 30 students in a box robbed children of so many effective practices; these larger spaces allow for better alternatives.”

Technology is a constantly changing playing field and it is easy to feel overwhelmed by the rate of change and the amount of information available. It is essential that we keep up with these changes to ensure that our students are provided with both current and relevant educational experiences.

For this to happen, teachers must maintain a personal Professional Learning Network for information currency in technology development, but where do we find this information?

In this session we will discuss a variety of worthy additions to your PLN and more importantly where and how you can share what you know?

Innovation and creativity has to start somewhere, why not with you?

Being innovative and creative is not a difficult as many think. Creativity does

not have to start with an original idea, you can be creative following

someone else’s original idea or even an old idea. In this session we will

discuss examples of creative and innovative practices at school and

classroom level.

We will examine a range of emerging technologies on the Horizon and

discuss how they are being implemented in education – virtual worlds,

augmented reality, Google projects, QR codes, etc.

We will also discuss the changing nature of schooling through innovative

approaches to teaching and learning such as the flipped classroom.
