Connectivity is
the essential characteristic of a classroom in which students with an
Information-Age Mindset will learn. Our students are looking for:
- regular access
to full multimedia workstations
- tools and peripherals
for creation of graphics, video, audio and interactive environments
- workstations
constantly connected to high speed local networks, intranets and the
Internet
- personal workspaces
accessible from various locations
- collaborative
workspaces where groups of students meet to share resources, share information,
collaborate and communicate with each other
- access to the
seemingly limitless online resources
- strategies for
finding the educationally sound and valuable resources.
Teachers need -
ditto. All of the above, plus support in getting into an Information-Age
Mindset.
