Maths Uses computer technology to produce texts. WS1.12 Produces texts using letters of consistent size and slope in NSW Foundation Style and using computer technology. Critical Literacy – look at why people published their work on blogs, add to wikis, post to youtube.

20. The Thoughts of Year2h

26. Why is it important for children to be exposed to Web2.0?

27. What is MCEETYA? Ministerial Council on Education, Employment, Training and Youth Affairs.

28. The current generation of students was born into a highly technological world. They inhabit, navigate and communicate within a society which is both technologically-rich and information-rich. Pedagogy Strategy : learning in an online world. MCEETYA 2005.

29. Mobile technologies, chat, blogs, wikis, web cams, reality television and interactive games are intrinsic to their worlds. Current technologies shape their expectations and their abilities to access, acquire, manipulate, construct, create and communicate information.” Contemporary Learning: learning in an online world. MCEETYA 2005

30. Digital Natives are used to receiving information really fast. They like to parallel process and multi-task. They prefer their graphics before their text rather than the opposite. They prefer random access (like hypertext). They function best when networked. They thrive on instant gratification and frequent rewards. They prefer games to “serious” work. Marc Prensky Digital Natives Digital Immigrants ©2001

31. What is a 21st Century Learner? And what do they need in order to learn?

33. How do we create a community of 21st Century Learners? There are 4 key components that create a digital learner.

40. The challenge is to ensure all schools transform and optimise their use of technology to provide a relevant, sustainable 21st century education. Contemporary Learning: learning in an online world. MCEETYA 2005
