Book Synopsis Building School 2.0 by : Chris Lehmann
Download or read book Building School 2.0 written by Chris Lehmann and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ninety-five propositions for creating more relevant, more caring schools There is a growing desire to reexamine education and learning. Educators use the phrase "school 2.0" to think about what schools will look like in the future. Moving beyond a basic examination of using technology for classroom instruction, Building School 2.0: How to Create the Schools We Need is a larger discussion of how education, learning, and our physical school spaces can—and should—change because of the changing nature of our lives brought on by these technologies. Well known for their work in creating Science Leadership Academy (SLA), a technology-rich, collaborative, learner-centric school in Philadelphia, founding principal Chris Lehmann and former SLA teacher Zac Chase are uniquely qualified to write about changing how we educate. The best strategies, they contend, enable networked learning that allows research, creativity, communication, and collaboration to help prepare students to be functional citizens within a modern society. Their model includes discussions of the following key concepts: Technology must be ubiquitous, necessary, and invisible Classrooms must be learner-centric and use backwards design principles Good technology can be better than new technology Teachers must serve as mentors and bring real-world experiences to students Each section of Building School 2.0 presents a thesis designed to help educators and administrators to examine specific practices in their schools, and to then take their conclusions from theory to practice. Collectively, the theses represent a new vision of school, built off of the best of what has come before us, but with an eye toward a future we cannot fully imagine.

This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Didactics - E-Learning, grade: 10, University of Macedonia, language: English, abstract: This study investigates the second generation of the World Wide Web, called Web 2.0. The revolution of Web 2.0 over Web 1.0 was that it allowed Internet users not to be passive recipients. who simply read the digital content of a web page, but enabled them to add digital content, share information, and collaborate online. The blast of Web 2.0 is therefore largely based on the electronic sharing of knowledge and information. In this paper the basic features of Web 2.0, its basic services, functions and tools will be firstly described. Next, concepts such as social networking services and social networks will be analyzed and the application of Web 2.0 in education, as well as the benefits it can bring will be studied. In conclusion, a summary of the possibilities of Web 2.0 is made and the advantages, disadvantages and its role in the educational process are presented through a critical point of view. One of the major differences between Web 2.0 and the traditional World Wide Web is the greater collaboration between Internet users and other users such as digital service providers and businesses. While Web 1.0 was software organized around pages, technologies, and businesses, Web 2.0 was organized around ordinary people and services. In the Web 1.0 era, internet users had the ability to read the digital content of a web page but could not create their own since the only person who could update the web page content was its webmaster. In other words, we would say that Web 1.0 was not oriented towards the creation of digital content by internet users.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents findings from a two-year investigation of the ways in which Web 2.0 tools and social networking technologies are being used to support teaching and learning in classrooms across the United States. With funding from Intel[R], the Education Development Center's Center for Children and Technology (EDC/CCT) interviewed or visited over 30 educators in 22 different schools throughout the country as they employed these tools in their classrooms in innovative ways. The authors also spoke with and observed a number of students in these schools. Over the two years of their research, the sample of teachers was drawn from the Intel[R] Teach Essentials course and the network of master teachers and training agencies that has grown up around that program. Through this network of educators, the authors sent out a request for volunteers to teachers that are experimenting with Web 2.0 technologies in their classrooms. During the first year they recruited 12 individual teachers, but for the second year they targeted districts with larger groups of teachers experimenting with Web 2.0 and were able to reach 27 educators across three districts. This report is divided into two sections: (1) a summary of some of the most frequent Web 2.0 applications they encountered and (2) a discussion of different themes and issues concerning the use of Web 2.0 tools in classrooms that emerged from all the interviews and visits. Appended are: (1) Tools that create or support a virtual learning environment; (2) Tools that support communication and cultivate relationships; (3) Resources to support teaching and learning; and (4) Tools enabling students to create artifacts representing what they are learning. A bibliography is included. (Contains 4 tables and 1 footnote.).
