DAY 2
Morning Spark Sessions

Shouldn't the school system be adapting to the life of students?
Changing teacher practice is the hardest thing teachers do.
You can't reflect if you don't try new things. It doesn't have to be perfect!

What is student engagement?
- challenge
- time flies
- social
- creative
- accomplishment (way different than sense of done)

Generation Z are our first digital natives.
They want school to come to them in bite size chunks.
THEY KNOW the magic happens outside their comfort zone.

We have to stop being the comfortable experts and become restless learners - Holly Clark


Critical Thinking and the Web - Holly Clark
The New Digital Divide
- Those who know how to think about search and those who don't.
- Those who know how to validate information and those who don't.
- Those who know how to get information to travel to them and those who don't.

Our students need to be TRANSLITERATE ~ Not just reading and writing.

I'm NOT a good searcher ... and it is very likely that my students aren't either.

300,000 - 500,000 is a good number of results.
