10 December 2009Zoraini Wati Abas21We believe the 1:1 environment is prompting a new learning ecology, which we describe through four unique conditions:

Immediate and constant access to information and a global community;Intensity, relevance and personalization of learning;Highly developed teacher capacities; andHighly developed student dispositions.Toward a New Learning Ecology: Teaching and Learning in 1:1 Environmentshttp://www.fi.ncsu.edu/podcast/white-paper-series/2009/04/22/toward-a-new-learning-ecology/

10 December 2009Zoraini Wati Abas22As a result of these conditions, we have proposed five strategies for consideration to be included in 1:1 teacher professional development. These strategies are:

Technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK);Project-based inquiry;A global skill set;Performance-based assessment; andProfessional learning communities and networks.http://www.fi.ncsu.edu/podcast/white-paper-series/2009/04/22/toward-a-new-learning-ecology/
