How are the ideas and information presented 

CONNECTED to what you already knew?

What new ideas did you get that EXTENDED or 

pushed your thinking in new directions?

What is still CHALLENGING or confusing for you to 

get your mind around? What questions, wonderings or 

puzzles do you now have?

Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligence Theory 

provides alternatives to our past educational 

practices as does the incorporation of 

technology into the field of education via 

Mobile learning, MTV, and using social sites as 

an extension of the classroom.

The world is rapidly changing and 

progressing heavily towards being more 

technology driven. It makes perfect sense 

for the P21 to advocate equipping our 

students with the necessary knowledge and 

skills of a successful 21st   century employee 

and citizen.

Educational social network sites, Web 2.0's, 

and educational mobile apps have changed the 

face of the educational experience. As a result 

I have begin implementing the above in my 

personal classroom experiences with my 

students via: using QR codes to great papers at 

home, link to enrichment information on a 

particular subject, as well as communicate with 

students outside the classroom as a means of 

scaffolding with rigorous lessons.

Through the use of   PLN, I have been 

able to retrieve new and innovative 

ideas to incorporate in my classroom 

environment, as well as provide some of 

the easier ways to increase student 

engagement with the use of Web 2.0's 

in the classroom.

In the classroom environment, HOTS has 

been a troublesome area for me, 

especially with differentiating those skills 

amongst students. However, with the 

integration of using Web 2.0's and MTV, 

HOTS has been much easier. Students 

have been creating flow charts, 

presentations, and etc. allowing me as a 

teacher to develop and evaluate their 

HOTS more efficiently.
