Creating a Digital Age Learning Culture
As you move through this Capstone, consider how you can promote a Digital Age Learning Culture. How can educators prepare to teach in a digital nation? What online learning trends should be front and center in professional development? What culture shifts influence how we teach and learn? As you explore the challenges and resources, consider how you will bring this ISTE-Standard to your own organization.
Get started by exploring PBS Learning Media's "21st Century Schools: Learning in a Digital Nation" and the activities surrounding digital age teaching and learning. You might also review the quizzes, polls, and content in the lessons in "21st Century Schools: Learning in the Digital Age". What opportunities do you see for engaging your own staff in this conversation?
Next, preview the "Multitasking at MIT" video. What habits are emerging in our digital nation that impact teaching and learning?
