The Cloud, the Virtual Desktop, and the De-Massification of Public Education

This is something I can see as a way to customize university software use. Virtual desktops for using software that is otherwise unavailable. But am I missing something?

Isn’t this google docs/zoho/livewriter but writ larger. I guess the unversity would have biggies on there like statistics programs, cad programs, animation/media programs. I can

see that. Clearly, this is an area that I need to explore and perhaps suggest to K-12 as well as higher ed. I am thinking that if there was 100% student access to something like this

tied to a program like Elluminate then I don’t really see the desparate need for bricks and mortar. I think we are witnessing the demassification of K-12 and beyond..

A Few Simple Ways To Introduce Reluctant Colleagues To Technology | Larry Ferlazzo’s Websites of the Day… Annotated
- In my community organizing career, I learned that a key to engaging people to move beyond their comfort zone is to first build a relationship — a reciprocal one. A relationship entails eliciting from others their hopes and dreams, along with sharing your own. It involves finding learning the frustrations and challenges that people are experiencing. It involves looking for ways to help the other person realize those hopes and dreams and get beyond those challenges. And, if educational technology can genuinely help in those ways, then building a relationship means framing the invitation to try it in a way that speaks to what the other person wants, which may not be the way you would prefer to frame it. It is the difference between “being right” and “being effective.”
- the simple ways I’ve introduced using educational technology as tool reluctant colleagues might want to consider — after I’ve developed or deepened relationships with them.

tags: no_tag
- an interesting research project that tracked how teachers and students used wikis and blogs in the classroom — Web 2.0 in the Classroom, Blogs and Wikis.
- 1. Virtual class space.
- test review
- share opinions
- discussion questions
- blog debates
- give and receive criticism about their artwork.
- One failed project is noteworthy — the teacher asked students to create a wiki about skin diseases, with each student covering a different disease. Students did not engage in any discussions on this project, because there was no real reason for them to care about reading, and commenting, on each others’ posts.
- 2. Communication
- a class blog where students would post comments and questions as they developed their project (a “digital story”).
- a travel blog, and asked each student to write an imaginary blog post about their visit to a spanish speaking country.
- students didn’t really care about posting a blog post to the entire world – they cared more about communicating with people in their local community or classroom.
- 3. Making and Producing Stuff
- Daniel Light (the presenter) shared his very detailed paper with a review of how teachers used many of the different tools and techniques discussed in this blog post. Download that here: Web 2.0 in classrooms

Esther Wojcicki: Revolution Needed for Teaching Literacy in a Digital Age Annotated

tags: no_tag
- Harvard educational psychologist Jeanne Chall famously called this phenomenon the “fourth grade reading slump,” where children cannot make the transition from learning to read to “reading to learn,” which hinders their learning in all other subjects. International comparisons show that because of these early literacy setbacks America is losing the global race in science and math, areas central for 21st century skilled jobs.
  - fourth grade reading slump
- far too many students hit a wall by fourth grade
  - Could it be that this is mwhen reading switches from being private to being public and social? We need to cast the iron bands of reading use at this age. Iron bands of habit dedicated to belief that reading is the royal road.
- the current approach to solving the literacy crisis is locked in a time warp,
  - great quote
- Unless the American education system changes course quickly to integrate literacy and digital culture into our current educational paradigm, academic achievement gains will continue to stagnate.
  - Read “rot”?
- rectify
  - To make right–implies a map and a compass. There is neither.
- exposed to a wide ranging vocabulary with complex words and ideas before age five
- Educational video games, simulations, modeling tools, handheld devices, and media production tools can allow students to see how complex language and other symbol systems attach to the world.
- These media teach students to master the production of knowledge, not just the consumption of knowledge. Kids learn to create videos, write blogs, collaborate online; the also learn to play video games, do digital storytelling, fan fiction, music, graphic art, anime and even more.
- informal process of learning, collaboration, and transforming passion into knowledge is desperately needed in schools today.
- Schools of education are still failing to teach student teachers how to integrate digital media in the classroom.
- never even heard of Open Education Resources (OER), which offers thousands of free online resources for teachers; nor have they heard of Creative Commons, an open licensing format to help teachers share work and work collaboratively.
- We recommend
- Digital Teacher Corps
- train teachers to help students learn to read by transforming information for discovery and problem-solving.
- incentives for schools of education to update curriculum
- use online collaborative tools, video production tools, blogging tools, mobile tools and a variety of commercial and non-profit programs targeting the classrooms. Frequently young teachers know how to use these tools on a personal level but not in the classroom.
- Design alternative assessments and include project based learning in standards
- assessments should be measuring skills based on project based learning, digital skills, problem solving skills and collaboration skills
- Assessments drive the curriculum and so we need new assessments to drive a 21st century curriculum.
  - Feedback not assessment. Assessment is an unalloyed evil.
- national models like Communities in Schools, First, Computer Clubhouse, Club Tech of the Boys and Girls Clubs, and the Quest to Learn, Digital Youth Network and School of One models in Chicago and New York City.
- Establish Model Digital Schools in every state
- High Tech High, Green Dot and KIPP Academies
- Each state should establish at least one digital partnership elementary school as a model and demonstration site.
- They could become a hub for the professional development of digitally savvy teachers.
- Modernize public broadcasting
- Alexis de Tocqueville, the French historian and author of Democracy in America, wrote: “I (fear) that men may reach a point where they look on every new theory as a danger, every innovation as a toilsome trouble, every social advance as a first step toward revolution, and that they may absolutely refuse to move at all.”

International Program Catches On in U.S. Schools – NYTimes.com Annotated

- The lesser-known I.B., a two-year curriculum developed in the 1960s at an international school in Switzerland, first took hold in the United States in private schools. But it is now offered in more than 700 American high schools — more than 90 percent of them public schools — and almost 200 more have begun the long certification process.
  - IB program strikes me as just another way for the rich to get richer and for the poor to jump ship faster.

Videojug – Get Good At Life. The world’s best how to videos plus free expert advice and tutorials.

tags: no_tag
- VideoJug, launched into public beta two days ago, is a site with the aim of creating a place where you can find and share advice, wisdom and know-how through video. If you are a visual learner, you will love VideoJug. VideoJug is like a video-handbook to life where VideoJug and its users create and share informative and helpful videos that teach how to perform certain tasks. You can learn everything from tying a tie to eating sushi, and the best part is, it’s fun! If you have a question, VideoJug aims to have the answer.
  
  The way it works is simple, and unlike your average video sharing site, users are not the only source of videos. This is because VideoJug has actually set out to create thousands of instructional videos that teach you how to perform tasks part of our everyday lives. Users can also contribute to the website by recording their own instructional videos and uploading them for others to learn from. You can find videos on cooking, house repair, technology, health, and more. Also, I found that thee VideoJug created movies aren’t just basic home videos showing you how to do something. They are actually very well made and professional videos performed by real experts. Take the foods category for example. You will find that some of the videos take you to real restaurants and have chefs actually take you through step by step. Pretty impressive.

- Create screencasts online. Java-based. Still in beta, but a great tool. Resolution much higher than what I’ve been able to achieve with SnapzPro on my Mac. And yes, it’s cross-platform! So far, you can’t embed, though you can download as Quicktime, upload to Google Video or YouTube, etc, and embed from there, I guess–which might cause the same fuzzy resolution I’ve been fighting with SnapzPro all along. iShowU, by the way, is a new Mac screencast software–about USD $20–that is far superior to SnapzPro, if you want to buy software for your Mac.
  Screencast-o-matic seems eager to add features and improve its service, so it’s definitely something to watch. Thanks to Jeff Utecht and Chris Craft for the tip.

- The pace of change in the most vibrant post-industrial sectors is such that the technical expertise of one’s 40s has decayed into anachronistic obsolescence by one’s 50s. Knowledge may be power but it is also perishable. Yesterday’s hot mark-up language is tomorrow’s Sanskrit; last decade’s breakthrough medical procedure is next year’s malpractice. The cliché about the distinction between “five year’s experience” and a “year’s worth of experience five times” has seldom been more apt or more bitter. Then again, cultivating and harvesting one’s socio-professional network for five more years can also yield disproportionate value.
