Investment in technology is a costly process, so making the right decisions for the right reasons is important. How do you reconcile the competing demands from teachers wanting the latest equipment and resources, with the 'push' from IT companies wanting you to purchase products and services from them? In this workshop we'll explore a framework for decision making that starts with the teaching and learning, and uses that to make informed decisions about the technology to invest in. This slideshow is from the workshop I present that introduces a framework for thinking about the pedagogical imperatives in our strategic thinking. |

Effective professional development lies at the heart of ensuring a school remains dynamic and effective as a learning organisation. The biggest problems many schools face, however, is how to ensure that the provision of professional development is effective in terms of addressing the broad range of abilities and interests of staff, while at the same time contributing to the overall goals of the school programme. Using a Concerns Based Adopting Model to underpin the design and development of school-wide PLD allows you to strategically plan for PLD activities that will effectively address both sets of needs. THese slides are from the workshop I facilitate to introduce the concept of CBAM to teachers and school leaders. |

An updated version of the presentation below, focusing on three key areas to be considered when thinking about driving change in schools using a pedagogically-driven decision-making process. These are:

An overview of two models I've developed to help explain the way in which we need to be thinking about a pedagogically driven approach to decisions about technology, particularly when considering the bigger picture issues around ultra-fast broadband. The first model separates the three key 'layers' of the system as a whole, with the pedagogical investment at the top of the tree, while the second model shows how a pedagogical framework can help drive decision make down, and provide a rationale and justification for investment. |

A summary slideshow illustrating an e-Learning maturity process that is based on what can be observed in classrooms re the interplay between prominence given to ICT and the extent to which this is based on curriculum and pedagogical decisions. This framework was a part of a series of 'tests' that were developed on the basis of a 3-year research project into the work of the ICT-PD clusters in New Zealand between 1999 and 2001 (This was part of what was presented recently to the Te Apiti Cluster) |
| Presentation prepared for cluster seminars at the beginning of 2011. It is framed around four key questions:
I've drawn on the Horizon Report 2010 (NZ-Aus edition) and provided links to illustrations of each of the trends. I've also created a livebinder (link below) which has all of these links listed for easy access. |

The future's not what it used to be! |
This is the keynote address I gave at the ULearn09 conference after the original Thursday keynote speaker was unable to be at the conference.The presentation focuses on the future of education, and the role of emerging technologies as identified in the Australia-NZ version of the Horizon report, and the developments around the advanced network in NZ.
The presentation was put together using CoolIris, following the instructions posted by Alan Devine. Here's the link to my CoolIris presentation (NB – you must have cooliris intstalled) |
| Keynote presentation to the Adult Literacy Practitioners Association (ALPA) in Wellington on Friday 22 may, 2009. Focusing on the challenges and changes that the use of ICTs into their work with adult literacy learners may bring, and the potential that these technologies offer to enhance the work they do. | |
| Presentation designed to provide practical examples of how ICTs can be used to support the development of the key competencies as outlined in the New Zealand Curriculum document. An emphasis is given to using applications that are available freely as illustrations, focusing on the ability of students to be able to access these from where-ever and when-ever they want/need to. | |
| An overview of CORE's ten trends re the use of ICT in education for 2009, presented at the Learning@School conference in Rotorua in February, 2009. The presentation provides an overview of key areas that are likely to impact on the decisions made at the school level about investment in and use of ICTs to support teaching and learning. | |
| A "Big Picture" presentation aimed at inspiring teachers to expand their vision and think more broadly about the ways in which ICTs may be incorporated into classroom programmes to support the development of 21st century learners. | |
| An overview of the various ways in which I use online applications to help manage my life online, including RSS aggregators, calendars, etc. | |
| An introduction to the Education Positioning System, an online school review and development tool developed jointly by CORE Education and Dr Julia Atkin. More information can be found at http://eps2.core-ed.org/ |
