What worked for me?

My students apply their IT skills to create teaching materials by

using Wikis in LMS Moodle. These activities help students realize

how, even at their age, they can contribute to their own education.

It is always amazing to see their creativity come to life. I love

hearing responses like, ‘I really enjoyed this class. I didn’t think that it was possible for the class

time to run so fast.’ A few students even said that they would like to create their own

courses. It is really rewarding to get that kind of feedback!

What didn’t work for me?

Very few students are still Student 0.0 and 1.0

No access to the Internet from their homes

Dependent on Facebook Not motivated Passive Opportunist in using Wikipedia

Without parental support, control, supervision

Where are we heading to? What are we supposed to do

next?

Our main goal should be to create learning environment for Student 3.0

WEB

Teacher 3.0 and Students 3.0

can empower each other

Chris Lehman: Principal Leadership Magazine

“Those of us who work in education talk a lot about student engagement, but I don’t think that goes far enough. Engagement is certainly better than boredom, but schools should set the bar for themselves is much higher. What schools should strive for is student empowerment”.

And not to forget …

We need a Parent 3.0

School 3.0Wisdom. Encouragement.

Empowerment.
