Focus on Student Learning

STOP -> GO -> IDEAL

• ICT – (Prensky's digital native)
• Sage on the Stage - with so much information available we need to focus on teaching students how to USE and APPLY information when and where it is NEEDED. (Loader, 2007).
• Loader says; “…another very important goal is to ensure that students are able to make sense of their learning experiences and thoughts, and of society. Learning is about personal growth, achieving a stable base from which individuals can function effectively with resilience in a testing, changing society. Hopefully it’s also about creating a better, sustainable world”. (Loader, 2007).
• Options for learning – different uses for ICT to support different learning styles.
• Opportunities to develop individual skills – make sure everyone is accommodated – and valued!
• Opportunities to follow and develop areas of interest – choice of curriculum electives.
