Students will understand a design process and use it to generate ideas, test theories and solve problems. By using a design tool, students will be able to plan/manage a design process to develop and text prototypes.
Students will be able to choose appropriate platforms and tools for meeting the outcome of their design. They will be able to create original works or repurpose digital resources into their own creation.
Students will be able to use technology to digitally collaborate on a global scale. They will be able to connect with learners from a variety of cultures and backgrounds and contribute constructively to project teams.
Learning Technology and Policy Framework
Policy Direction One: Student Centred Learning Outcomes. Students will access, share and create knowledge through innovative critical thinking. Students will be able to demonstrate good communication skills as well as a global and cultural awareness/understanding. Teachers are expected to establish technology based, student centred learning. The Ministry of Education must align the curriculum with technology based initiatives.
#
Policy Direction Two: Research and Innovation. Teachers are expected to stay current/research technology developments and apply their findings to learning and teaching. Alberta Education should support Ed-Tech research and their decisions should be informed by this research.
Policy Direction Three: Professional Learning. Administrators are well equipped to use technology to create personalized student centred learning. Teachers do this through professional growth learning opportunities. The Ministry of Education is required to ensure that teachers are well prepared.
#
