Guiding Questions for 2011 PL

 1. Are today’s students different to those in previous decades? Are they attention deficient? Some aspects the same, some different (social skills, expectations). They are attention different rather than deficient.

 2. What do they want from education? A lot, they have high expectations of service. Flexibility.

 . How can we better motivate and engage current and future students? Start by accepting that one size does not fit all and by working to understand them eg they are happy with always being on but I want down time.

 3. How can we help students learn by adapting our attitudes to Information and Digital Technology (IDT) that inform our practices ? Continually introducing new technologies and pedagogies, then reflecting on the experience and changing as needed.
