This presentation examines some of the qualities of our students outside the classroom information experiences. The point is that perhaps, rather than integrate technology into our classroom teaching, we should integrate qualities of their "Native" information experiences into our assignments and projects.

While I was still teaching history, my grandparents moved from the house they'd lived in for more than 50 years. Because I was the only teacher in
the family, they gave me all of their (ancient) National Geographic Magazines.
I am ashamed to admit that as I leafed through those magazines, I had scissors in my hands. I cut those things to pieces -- because I wanted to
bring those pictures, maps, and diagrams into my classroom, put them on the wall, and give my learners a chance to learn from them.
You see, I taught in an information-scarce learning environment. The methods I used in the classroom were based on information scarcity. The
pedagogies I learned in university were based on information scarcity.
Today, Flickr, the social photo album site, is receiving more than three million new photos every day. We are now teaching in information-
abundant learning environments.
One of the most interesting questions in the education field today is, "What are the pedagogies of information-abundant learning environments.

Responsive
Our learners’ outside-the-classroom information experiences are responsive. They are accustomed to receiving feedback on their actions, decisions, and ideas. Video
games are an obvious example of how they play and work in an environment that responds to them. If you send your player down the wrong road or through the wrong
door, he dies and you have to start again. But there has to be a logical and contextual reason for it. There has to be a basis that the player reasons through to rationalize
the death and plan better for the next time through.But it would be a mistake to believe that all of the responsiveness that our learners are accustomed to is immediate – or
that immediacy is even the most important element of responsiveness. Many video games fail the player out, not because of a single mistake, but for committing a cascade
of mistakes, some of which may have been committed minutes, hours, or days earlier. Even their social networking is responsive, and the comments they receive back are
often extended across hours or days.The key to responsiveness is not time-based as much as it is relevance- based. If the response is authentic to what the learner is
doing, then the influence on learning is greater.
Classroom Examples:
Instructional software that provides feedback within a learner identified context
Writing assignments submitted as blog entries or wiki pages to be read and responded to by classmates or readers outside the classroome
Portfolios, accessible from outside the school environment and available for comment/feedback
Various academic (and physical) competitions (website creation, robotics, field day, competitive quizzes)
Collaborative work that involves group planning, individual specialization, and a valued deliverableStudent produced learning resources (study guides or even student
produced textbooks)
Provokes Conversation
There is very little that millennials do alone, and it is, to some peoples reckoning, counter intuitive that today’s youngsters are actually more sociable and skilled socially
than previous generations. They are together at school, at the ball game, at band camp, at the mall, and at home, through their IM, text messaging, and social networks.
They are more like room mates than mere friends. They are constantly engaged with each other and they never say goodbye – because the conversation continues, even
when they are no longer physically together or even in the same state.
Beyond the availability that they have with each other, through the information and communication technologies (ICT) that they assume to be a part of their experience,
many of their activities demand communication. The very nature of Facebook, Beebo, and MySpace is conversation. You are posting your updates to be read and responded
to. They comment on their digital walls, upload photos and videos for comment, and discuss their homework through their social networks.
Many video games also require conversation. Operated over the Internet, players are encouraged to form themselves into teams or guilds, plan and implement campaigns,
form economic cartels, and even push the games into unintended functionality, such as machinima (http://bit.ly/o5lm7).
Classroom Examples:
Online collaborations across classrooms and even age groupings
Ask students to read separate parts of a chapter and then sequence and outline the context as a team
Arrange guest speakers either in-class or virtually, but, after a short introduction, have students interview the speaker rather than ask for an extended formal presentation
Assign homework that asks students to collaborate through theirsocial networksAsk students from geographically different places to plan, together, virtual field trips
through
Skype or other video conferencing software
Google and what it represents has turned us into a question-asking culture. We love to ask questions at a rate of more than a hundred billion a month, through the top ten
search engines.3We ask questions, because we know that the answers are available and often no further away than our pockets. Our demand for high speed access to the
answers has increased, even during recession years and among previously reluctant demographics.4
But, for our students, it goes much deeper than posing questions out of curiosity. Consider that many of the video games that they play come without user guides. With a
sense of context that they receive from introductory videos and conversations with friends, they find themselves thrust into an alien world with almost no guidance. How
do you approach an experience like this? You approach it by asking questions:•What are the goals of this game? •What are the rules? •How can I use the rules to
accomplish the goals?
The game constantly presents barriers to accomplishment that the player has to question his way around.

Ft. Edmonton
‣ Grade 2 students from Westglen School
Visited Fort Edmonton.
‣ Returned & researched modes of
transportation of the time.
‣ Using MS Paint they made an image of
one of the modes.
‣ Grade 4 students from J.A. Fife School
visited Fort Edmonton.
‣ Used MS Paint to draw a background
for the grade 2 drawings.
‣ Hired grade 10s in a hypermedia class to
animate the pictures.

The objective of the work was learning about prairie life in 19th century Alberta by producing graphic illustrations
of how they traveled.
The nature of the work was conversation/collaboration. Conversation and collaboration are not easy, and the
deep and productive collaborations necessary in a technology-rich, information-driven, and increasingly global
environment is especially hard.
The students' collaboration was handicapped by asking them to communicate through classroom walls, school
campuses, and through age differences. The students were challenged to be resourceful.
