Project Leader
Ms Kate Farrow

Year 7 Global
Citizenship Project


 Year 10 students created an alternate reality
   game played by 120 Year 7 students over
           3 consecutive school days
Year 7 Global Citizenship Project
The future…


If people don’t really learn how to learn and
how to engage, and how to be flexible and
adaptive, how to find communities and have
ideas about things that they want to do now,
we’re just really in trouble.
                               Professor Katie Salen
George Siemens suggests that, when students
  “make their learning transparent, they
            become teachers.”
Some questions to ask ourselves…


    Is it possible to share knowledge more
           effectively in online spaces?


        Who might be directing the
        learning in online spaces?
As teachers we are beginning
              to be urged to:

               Rethink access
            Rethink transparency
              Rethink openess
             Rethink ownership



Understanding Virtual Pedagogies For Contemporary Teaching & Learning
                                           AN IDEAS LAB WHITEPAPER
We are at the very beginning of what these new
           technologies will enable.
  Perhaps the question we should be asking
 ourselves is not how technology can improve
        what we are currently doing…

                              BUT

               what is now possible?
