Technology/Pedagogy/Content - Science of Teaching

I COME FROM AN ANCIENT WORLD

 

LANDED

ON:

"TPACK"

My pet peeve is to look up word definitions and write them down.  Leftover from my time in Gambride Institute; the way to learn new words and knowing how to use them in a sentence;  my next project will be focusing on that way of learning, with today's technology, as it was nerated on Dr. Mcleod's video of Technology-Pedagogy-Content

Technology – define technology:  the dictionary defines technology as;  the branch of knowledge that deals with the creation and use of technical means and their interrelation with life, society, and the environment, drawing upon such subjects as industrial arts, engineering, applied science, and pure science.

Pedagogy - define pedagogy: the dictionary defines pedagogy as; the art or science of teaching; education; instructional methods.

Content – define content:  the dictionary defines content;  substantive information or creative material viewed in contrast to its actual or potential manner of presentation: publishers, record companies, and other content providers;

TECHNOLOGY

I will use the TPACK model for my Middle/High School students, in my future classroom. 

Dr. Mcleod's video engligten me in teaching students of:

ESL/LEP & BILINGUAL CLASSROOM: TEACHING THEM TO WRITE

BLOG:

Students will write a journal every day.  The journal will consist: 

Thoughts about teaching

Subjects they will like to read

Books, periodicals they like to read

Topics to talk about

What games they will like to see developed

Freedom of writting their ideas with prohibitions, of certain forms of language usage, of course.

They will not know how much they are helping themselves in writting and developing english language skills but at the end of 10 months the advancement in writting skillfully, will be obvious. 

I will link the blog with appropriate books to give them ideas of what to pick for reading

Visit to the school Library certain day of the week, as a group, to find the books we picked for our reading in class and take home to read for pleassure.

On Monday we will write -including the teacher- what we liked about the book(s) we read and we will continue on what we will like to read next, or what the book made us think of to explore next.

They will learn to make blogs to link to the books they will like to read.  Along with the writting part the reading part will be rabidly developed.

Chapter books will be best for the younger ones and the High School students could pick books of their interest.

PEDAGOGY

We will have conversations on how we learn, or how we can further add blogs with subjects of our interest, "playing" will cross pedagogy with technology.

CONTENT

From Content to Technology; videos, tutorials, games; they will be usefull and fun to explain the content, be analytical in the speech we use, write down new words, explain the meaning.  Make a new blog where we will write all the new words, linked them with the sentence from where we picked them from or the video, tutorial, game, we heard them, how they were used in a sentence. 

Technology - Pedagogy - Content:   the essence of something that tells us what to do.  "Writting" the essence of "Reading"  "Reading" the essence of "Writting"  to learn how to write, we have to learn how to read, to learn how to read,  we have to learn how to write.   A new way for me and most inteligent to explain to students on how to find essence and how to use it. 

NEUROSCIENCE:  Another subject of a great intrest of mine.

Educational Technology Blog 1 for Katerina Drakaki-Peterson  Jan 27, 2013

1. Begin by describing student work that you might design using blogs. Use the TPACK Model to identify each aspect of the work. The following questions will help guide your thinking:   
• Content--What content you addressing? Considering the verb in the standard and Blooms Revised Taxonomy, what is the desired level of thinking from the standards?
• Pedagogy--What pedagogical stance (or which learning theories or theorists) does this work support? In other words, whose “shoulders” did you stand on?
• Technology--What affordances can you identify for the technology selected? Justify the match of your pedagogical stance/strategy with the technology affordances.
2. Discuss other ways that this technology can be used in the learning environment.
3. Identify any obstacles to using this tool. What makes this tool worth using even with these obstacles?
