Learn how teachers can use different technologies to engage and support meaningful student learning. Meaningful Learning with Technology, Fourth Edition, grounded in constructivist teaching, is organized around learning processes such as inquiring, experimenting, writing, modeling, community building, communicating, designing, visualizing, and assessing. Numerous examples from teachers in K-12 classrooms, offer a clear understanding of how technology can be used with all students across grade levels.
New to the Fourth Edition:
A Focus on 21st Century Classroom Instruction
· Gain an understanding of major educational technology and learning standards
through the review and discussion of three alternative conceptions and standards
for meaningful learning: ISTE NETS, 21st Century Skills, and Technological
Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK).
· See practical examples of how various types of learning activities can align
with NETS and 21st Century Skills in every chapter.
· Identify critical issues involved with information literacy and learn effective
ways to provide support through an expanded section on information literacy
skills.
· See how the most current technologies can enable teaching and learning
through a strong focus on social educational networking and Web 2.0 tools
for learning and collaboration.
A Focus on Practical Technology Application
· Assessing Characteristics of Meaningful Learning rubrics provide teachers
with practical tools they need to begin analyzing and assessing the quality of
their teaching.
· Examples given to support the learning technologies described in the text
have been updated to feature more primary grade elementary students’
meaningful learning with technology.
