memo

To: OTF Executive From: Ian Pettigrew, Director, Curriculum and Assessment Re: Report on the Ministry of Education’s 21st Century Teaching and Learning Roundtable

(February 9, 2016)

On Tuesday, February 9, 2016 Lindy Amato and Ian Pettigrew represented OTF at the Ministry of Education’s 4th annual 21st Century Teaching and Learning Roundtable (Roundtable) which brought together small teams from school boards across Ontario. The event was co-sponsored by CODE and the Ministry, both of whom are engaged in a collaborative 21st Century Innovation Research study. The agenda and companion documents can be found at http://bit.ly/21Crt2016

Building on the learning focus of past provincial Roundtables, the purpose of the 2016

Roundtable was to link pedagogy, technology-enabled learning, and 21st century competencies

and to share lessons gleaned by school boards from their quest to harness information and

communication technologies (ICT) in the service of effective pedagogy. Finally, it was designed

to offer a forum for knowledge mobilization around capacity building strategies to promote

scaling-up effective and promising practices.

Stephen Paquette, Anishinaabe Elder from the Wikwemikong First Nation, opened the event. In a video message, Liz Sandals, Minister of Education, underscored the need for students, in the 21st century, to develop competencies that would serve them in a global, knowledge economy. She applauded Roundtable participants for their ongoing innovative and transformational work in this area. Catherine Montreuil, Assistant Deputy Minister (ADM), Learning and Curriculum Division, and Janine Griffore, ADM, French-Language Aboriginal Learning and Research Division, shared duties delivering remarks that included references to impact evidence, Michael Fullan’s 6 C's, and the difficulties inherent in scaling up and replicating innovations in technology-enabled teaching and learning. They also shared a Ministry-developed video entitled Transforming Learning and Teaching: Ontario on the Move (http://bit.ly/1Qc9Fds) in which directors and principals shared insights about successful practices that have been implemented system-wide, where they hope to go next and how and why their student achievement scores have increased. In addition, teachers and students reflected on how the learning environment had changed.

Dr. Chris Dede (Harvard University) shared his international perspective as the keynote speaker

entitled Ontario’s Journey of Transforming Education for the 21st Century: System Scaling for

Student Outcomes. This was Dede’s third appearance as keynote speaker at the Roundtable.

1516/E/139-2

Dede observed that:

Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) can be an incredible “amplifier” of student learning;

It can support students by doing the mundane, easier tasks and liberating them to do deeper thinking;

In classrooms leveraging ICT, competition among students has an undercurrent of collaboration; so competition is not destructive;

ICT can help teaching occur in classrooms “with no front";

Achievement results and scores alone don't tell the whole, complex story;

Ontario and other jurisdictions have made progress with the pioneers and early adopters of ICT-enabled classrooms; however, there remains much work to be done with the vast majority of later adopters;

Fostering conditions that encourage risk-taking and unlearning habits will be necessary; and

Providing professional learning opportunities in technology-enabled learning for all teachers is imperative.

Dede also provided an opportunity for Board teams to discuss how they might assess their progress in the leveraging of ICT in four areas: curriculum and instruction; professional development; leadership, administration and instructional support; infrastructure and technical support. As a model, he offered North Carolina’s Digital Learning Progress Rubric (attachment 1). Following Dr. Dede’s keynote, morning breakout sessions (a full list is available at http://bit.ly/GalleryWalk16) provided an opportunity for participants to hear from Boards who participated in the Ministry’s $150 million Technology and Learning Fund. Ian attended the Simcoe County District School Board’s "Ripples of Inquiry: Possibilities" and the Waterloo District School Board’s "Learning - It's All About the Change." Lindy attended the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board’s “Transforming Learning Everywhere...Driven by Instruction...Accelerated by Technology” and the Upper Grand District School Board’s “Digital Historian Project”. In the afternoon, participants were invited to a gallery walk in which they could connect with other innovation leaders across the province. Lindy and Ian shared OTF station ambassador duties and showcased OTF resources and initiatives connected to 21st Century learning and highlighted OTF Connects offerings. In the closing segments of the Roundtable, Catherine Montreuil returned to share "What Research Tells Us: 21st Century Competencies" She referred to Minister Sandals’ Achieving Excellence Mandate Letter Progress: Education (https://www.ontario.ca/page/mandate-letter-progress-education) which states: “By 2025, Ontario will have an education system that seamlessly integrates services from early years to adulthood. Ontario will be a world leader in higher-order skills — such as critical thinking and problem solving — which will allow Ontario to thrive in the increasingly competitive global marketplace.”

1516/E/139-3

She noted that as part of its plan, Ontario is engaged and working with other provinces to identify pan-Canadian 21st century competencies. She underscored a “don't wait for us [at the Ministry] to innovate” approach. She also encouraged Boards to explore Ontario’s Draft 21st Century Competencies/Global Competencies (attachment 2) a hard copy of which was circulated at the session. She ended by referencing CODE’s two resources which consolidated Dede's ideas from the last two Roundtables:

• Technologies that Aid Learning, Partnerships on Real-World, Authentic Tasks

• Learning Partnerships among Educators Enabled by Technology Both are available at http://bit.ly/21Crt2016 Dede closed out the day with three final thoughts: 1. Ontario can, and should, share its collective wisdom with other jurisdictions; it has many

learnings and insights, from its foray into this area, to offer others. 2. The next stage of the journey is here, but it is not evenly distributed. More cross-pollination

needs to happen. Board leadership teams could benefit from tapping into the wisdom and expertise of other Boards.

3. Education often stalls out when it stops with the “early adopters". Knowledge diffusion will be important and must involve determining who the influential figures are to whom others will look and want to follow.

Catherine Montreuil and Lilian Patry, Manager - Student Success and Learning Until 18 Unit, French-Language Education Policy and Programs Branch, officially closed the Roundtable and Stephen Paquette, Anishinaabe Elder, was invited to close the event.
