Projects to Help Learners Connect to Self, People and Planet

Beschreibung

In the book Teach Boldly: Using Edtech for Social Good, education leader Jennifer Williams invited educators to purposefully use technology and innovative teaching practices to connect students to causes of social good and impact. This follow-up jump start guide focuses on elementary age students, offering nine project ideas that prioritize access to action, student inquiry and innovation. The projects are divided into Practices, which are regular, ongoing activities that students can engage in every day; Processes, continuing projects that progress, evolve and increase in complexity and difficulty over time; and Pursuits, major one-time endeavors that challenge and stretch students. The guide: * Prioritizes class-to-class collaborations and community and global partnerships. * Helps educators amplify student voice and inspire elementary student activism with students as knowledge constructors and global storytellers. * Connects to the ISTE Standards (Student section) as well as the ISTE+ASCD Transformational Learning Principles. The related jump start guide for middle-grade and high school students is Teach Boldly for Grades 6-12: Projects to Help Learners Connect to Self, Planet and People. (ISTE Jump Start Guide, 8.5" x 11", 3 laminated panels, 6 pages) Audience: Elementary educators; elementary school leaders and coaches; preservice teachers
