10. 2. The digital learner ?

11. “Many students have turned to social networking through the cluster of computer-based applications known as Web 2.0. Here, they can communicate, share and learn informally” Williams (2008) Leading schools in the digital age: a clash of cultures School Leadership & Management, V. 28(3)

12. 2. The digital learner ? 1.Not for everyone 2.Identity: e.g. gender 3.Ecology: digital families Not a singular idea…

13. Digital learner? 1. Not for everyone “When my sister goes on, she spends hours on it and nowt ever seems to happen, you know. She just sits there, it’s like she clicks on something and then she’ll click off it and then she’ll go back on it and then she’ll go back on it and off it and on it and off it, just to see if she’s got a message. And it’s like she could speak to them on the phone you know” “Some people like sort of, especially in the winter when it’s dark, dark after school, they just sort of can’t really be bothered to get up and do Something, so they just like all go on the computer and talk to everybody”

17. “Like one time, right, I was in school and there’s one computer that you can get onto MSN from in the library and I asked my Mum like various types of things and some information and she said like ‘Oh wait until you get home’. I got home and then she showed me this website, which was really good.” Digital learner? 3. Ecology: scaffolding in the digital family

18. 3. The bemused teacher ? 1.How de-coupled? 2.No strong learner challenge 3.Innovators: some lessons

19. Many students have turned to social networking through the cluster of computer-based applications known as Web 2.0. Here, they can communicate, share and learn informally using knowledge systems their elders can barely understand. Some of their contemporaries have turned away altogether, rejecting school and contributing to record levels of truancy and exclusion Williams (2008) Leading schools in the digital age: a clash of cultures School Leadership & Management, V. 28(3)

20. Bemused teacher? How de-coupled? Experts vs. Reality

23. “It would be like,.. a web page, but with Publisher and Powerpoint and everything all put into it and you do all your work on there and then like you have like an internet like search thing, then block all of it for like naughty stuff and things that you could annoy people with but then like you can just get onto those when you’ve done all your work.” OK, that’s quite a nice idea. Would you want some sort of messaging on there? “Yes, like if you’ve done your work and then someone else has done their work as well in a different class then like a messaging or like speak to them straight after they’ve done their work.” On “the perfect school website” Bemused teacher? 2. No learner challenge?

24. Bemused teacher? 3. Innovators : some lessons 1. Web 2.0 as content and context 2. It takes a lot of time 3. The assessment hurdle 4. The security hurdle 5. It will happen from the bottom up 6. It’s the pedagogy, stupid!

It’s the pedagogy, stupid! “For me it’s not about computers, you know, occasionally I’ll still be seen as kind of a geeky teacher, but I can’t emphasise it enough with my colleagues, that for me, I’ve very little interest in computers, it’s about communication”
