Interactive Whiteboards: Leading us into the 21st century or chaining us to the past?

Creativity and innovation in the Classroom

Lessons from the Yamanote Line

As teachers we all have an enormous responsibility......every single day; we take on the important task of nurturing the impressionable minds of future generations. But what does it take to be an outstanding teacher? What does "peak performance" look like for an educator? In particular, what skills, attitudes and beliefs are helpful to us if we want to be the best teachers we can be? When you look at what great teachers do, there is always a common thread....a collection of core qualities that they all seem to possess, so how do we learn to deliberately cultivate these?

Passion, Purpose, Perspective and a Pirate Attitude

Our kids are supposed to be the Digital Natives, the ones that inherently understand all this technology stuff. After all, they've grown up with technology and live with it every day! We talk a lot about how fluent our students are with technology, but are they really? In this keynote we'll think about some of the realities of technology use in schools, and try to get a clearer perspective about our roles in the learning process.

The Myth of the Digital Native

The world has changed (a lot) and if we can't adapt we run the risk of becoming irrelevant and replaced. Creativity, and looking at the world in new ways will be what helps us thrive in this new world, where so many of the existing skills are being automated or shipped offshore. The curriculum that is supposed to provide opportunities for creativity often lacks the real teeth to do so and our job as contemporary educators is to make sure that creativity, innovation and thinking different are highly valued and rewarded in our classrooms, even if the system in general doesn't measure and support these things. We need to ensure that we do great things with kids in spite of the system. Finally, the impetus for maintaining our motivation and our understanding of the changing world can only come from surrounding ourselves with networks of like-minded people that can support us in our work every day.

Teaching And Learning In A Digital World (Without Breaking The Law)

In this talk we will look at the role of the teacher in a 21st century student-centered learning environment, and in particular how this role can be powerfully enhanced with interactive technology such as IWBs. If modern classrooms are all about making learners more responsible for their own learning, what are the essential skills that every teacher needs to bring to that environment? How do we find the right teaching/learning balance? And what role can technology play in helping us find this balance?

Wizards are very useful for creating a good user experience. In all businesses, interactive sessions are most beneficial. To improve the user experience, wizards in Odoo provide an interactive session. For creating wizards, we can use transient models or abstract models. This gives features of a model class except the data storing. Transient and abstract models have permanent database persistence. For them, database tables are made, and the records in such tables are kept until they are specifically erased.
