So sorry I'm behind in confirming your topic choices for the digital book. Jenny, you want to do digital citizenship, which I can see easily for the theoretical piece and the lesson activities. I"m not sure about what resources you will evaluate, but I'm ready to hear your plan. Melinda, I have you down for planning for integration of New Literacies into literacy instruction. Theresa, I have you for social media and collaboration. I"m looking forward to what you all do with those topics.
The readings for Week 4 focus on the planning process for integrating
New Literacies/new literacies into your teaching and classrooms. Last
week's readings also alluded to planning as part of describing new
literacies on classrooms. I hope that as you read, even if the literal
content is not about your teaching area or grade level, that you have
been making connections to your own situation and in your mind, thinking
about how the information could be used at your grade/age level.
As you read the chapters, think about how the ideas
they put forth are part of planning for instruction. How are they
related to last week's readings? Compare and contrast the different
frameworks. How are the readings all connected to this week's
overarching topic? What is new to you about this process and what is
just an expansion of what you already do? On Page 28 of H&C, you see a link to the Tech Integration Matrix site. Go there and see where you fall within the two dimensions of the matrix. How will all of this information help you as you plan for your own lessons/activities integrating digital and multimodal literacies into your classroom?
Have a good week! I'm looking forward to seeing you on Friday, Sept 14 at 5 pm. I"ll let you know where via email. If there are questions that you woudl like to discuss in class (content or assignments), let me know in the blog discussion.
