In North America, the Canadians have long had to play country mouse to the flashier city mouse of the U.S. It's the latter that gets all the attention, while the former sits quietly in a corner. But recent stories have shown just how big a player the Canadians are becoming---at least in the surveillance realm.

"Every time a kid comes home from school a parent asks the same question - 'What did you learn today?' - and the standard answer is usually 'Nothing.' "
The digital revolution hasn’t changed that, says Alberta educator, innovator and motivational speaker George Couros - but the social media tools our children take for granted could help parents get more than the usual one-word answer.

This amazing Canadian resource allows for teachers to gain an insight into how their technology practices can impact their students in different ways. It also has current news and research into ways teachers can support students with their learning in terms of digital technologies.
This resource covers all areas of the curriculum and how teachers can implement the curriculum within their classroom. Although it is a Canadian site, it is information that is relevant for the Australian Curriculum also. |
