John Seely Brown, Visiting Scholar,

University of Southern California

“…you can’t just drop new innovations into a classroom and hope that the instructor will invent effective ways to use them. To fully utilize a new teaching technology, you often need to invent new teaching practices as well.”

LOTS can crowd out HOTS

“The more education a child had been allowed to have before his/her handwriting was changed over to cursive …the larger his or her vocabulary was …the kids who’d been required to do the least cursive had vocabularies THREE TIMES the size of those who’d been required to do the most cursive.”

Kate Gladstone, Handwriting that worksAs quoted in http://georgecouros.ca/blog/archives/1758

You must choose what to include.

Page 63: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Strengths

Allow you to program common INTERFACES

Allow communication & SYNERGY between different tools and teachers

If you don’t know where you’re going how will you know when you’re there?

UNFAIR to hand students TESTS that

Weaknesses

• You get what you measure"Perhaps what you measure is what you get. More likely, what you measure is all you’ll get. What you don’t (or can’t) measure is lost" – H. Thomas Johnson

"the most important figures that one needs for management are unknown or unknowable, but successful management must nevertheless take account of them." W. Edwards Deming(from Out of the Crisis, p121)

Page 69: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Weaknesses

• Standards, by nature gravitate towards Lower Order Thinking Skills

Page 70: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

LOTS can crowd out HOTS

Classrooms have microclimates too!

Page 72: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Weaknesses

• You get what you measure• Standards gravitate, by nature

towards LOTS• LOTS can easily crowd out

HOTS• Lack of flexibility for unique

classroom needs• Who controls the standards?• Semantic confusion

LAWS

Page 77: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

The semantics of standards

Majority doesn’t rule in science.

Just because most people think it doesn’t make it true.

A human law cannot change the laws of science.

Page 78: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Galileo

Every discovery began with just one person who thought it to be true.

Page 79: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

If STANDARDS aren’t inclusive,

studentswill find out

quickly you’re not giving them

the whole picture.

WARNING

Page 80: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Every student SEARCHING means all

theories will eventually be FOUND and brought into

the classroom.

speech- teachers need the freedom to

TEACH.#ccssconf2013

WARNING

Page 82: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

To overcome Weaknesses

• You get what you measure– Must MEASURE HOTS

• Efolios• passion projects• Define what HOTs looks like in a school.• Celebrate creativity• Creativity Competitions• Requirements to collaborate

• Standards gravitate, by nature towards LOTS– Create “HOT” standards of BEHAVIORS

we want to see happening

Page 83: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

To overcome Weaknesses

• LOTS can easily crowd out HOTS– Make room for creativity (i.e.

20% time project)• Lack of flexibility for unique

classroom needs– Teacherpreneurship– Expect customization

Page 84: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

To overcome Weaknesses

• Who controls the standards?– Be inclusive and comprehensive

of important theories regardless of your personal opinion

– Guard standard makers from political influence

• Semantic Issues– Be careful to define terms:

standards, theories, and laws

WHAT IS COLLABORATIVE WRITING?WHAT IS “THE CLOUD?”

The process of writing, editing, and producing with a group of people.

Page 104: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Dr. Justin Reich @bjfr

• “Only 11% of wikis have any form of student collaboration and only 2-3% of wikis could be called ‘highly collaborative.’”

• “Giving students access to collaborative platforms doesn’t mean they will collaborate.”

Page 105: 2013 june-ccssconf2013-keynote-common core in the cloud

Types of writing on typical wikis via Dr. Justin Reich

1. Concatenation– discrete content– Students don’t touch each other’s work

2. Copy Editing– Edit grammar, punctuation, syntax or spelling

3. Co construction– Substantively edit text of another student

through addition, deletion replacementAs quoted in

4. Commenting– Conversational move– Doesn’t contribute to wiki content

5. Discussion– Comment back and forth on a topic with at least

four conversational turns.
