Closing session. The teacher: artist, bureaucrat, coach – or something else?
Inge Eidsvåg, the Nansen Academy
UNESCO: Since war is created in the head of men, we must make peace in the head of men…
The school can be used or misused.
In a changing society we need to have a changing school…
A peaceful world must start with the child.
The difference between a good school and a bad one is the teacher.
Nothing is learned which is not loved! (Augustin)
The teacher must be a life-long learner to keep his/her interest. To be a good teacher you must love the children.
You see the world as it is and ask why? I see the world as it could be and ask why not? (George Bernard Shaw)

Inte ska skolan vara kul?
På skolan vi är på har varje elev en egen dator. Enligt eleverna har det dock inte lett till att undervisningen blivit annorlunda. Huvudsakligen använder de datorn som skrivbok. De är inte ägare av datorn och har heller inga admin-rättigheter. Eleverna och lärarna är väldigt nöjda även om jag inte tycker det är så revolutionerande.
PDW, Oslo, dag 2
ICT in Teaching and Learning
Kjell Atle Halvorsen, Norwegian University of Science and Technology
Transforming the way we communicate, the way we learn… One of the reasons that teachers like interactive whiteboards is because they can keep the teaching practicing of the past putting in electricity…
What is web 2.0?
- A new generation of school internet services
- Rely on active user participation
- Play collective intelligence: Internet users work together
- Youtube, blog, sms, animations, games, facebook (eTwinning is there), chat, podcasting, msn, google maps, videos, second Life
- Youtube, blog, sms, animations, games, facebook (eTwinning is there), chat, podcasting, msn, google maps, videos, second Life
Google maps, putting in notes, pictures, facts
Do students leanr more with ICT?
Yes! … if we do it right … if we think differently
Should we use it to do more of the same – just a little more efficiently? To use the computer as a type-writer
or…
Pretty much the same - a lot more efficiently
or…
New stuff - different learning- more fun!
Open assignments, problem solving, collaboration, communication, student production, authentic learning, whole school engagement
