Guiding Principles

I don't have list of guiding principles. That is partially why I am taking this class.

The readings have given me a start.

DRAFT THOUGHTS

1. The technology has to be low threshold, high ceiling.
2. It has to provide a way to do new things in new ways.
3. It should support best practice & pedagogical strategy.
4. It should help teach the 21st-century skills outlined in "A New Challenge." I think it's a solid list.
5. It would be nice if helped support student participation and interest.

That's all that have so far.
They are not in any particular order.

  1. Jim,
    I like your phrase "low threshold, high ceiling". I agree!
