CTRL + ALT + INQUIRE: Sparking Curiosity in the ICT Matrix!

1. Introduction: Setting the Stage with Frameworks (5 minutes) Introduce key frameworks for technology integration. Start with a quick poll. Participants will then reflect on integrating multiple literacies and multimodal approaches in their classrooms. 2. Discernment in Technology (5 minutes) Discuss the importance of choosing technology with purpose, reemphasizing the SAMR model and design thinking as essential elements for student engagement. 3. Showcasing the Inquiry Journey: Grade-Level Examples (20 minutes) Walk through grade-level examples of inquiry-based projects, showcasing how technology was integrated at each stage: Grade 1: Holograms: How students used AI tools to create holographic videos, integrating art and technology. Grade 2: Building Cities: How students sketched, designed, and 3D printed city prototypes, integrating design thinking. Grade 3: Exploring Cultures: How students created cultural identity cards at first, then collaborated online to celebrate our cultural diversity. Grade 4: Building Websites: How students inquired and built websites to document inquiry, practicing design thinking and content creation. Grade 5: Video Making: How students followed an inquiry-based process to create documentary films, including managing timelines and reflecting on content. 4. Reflection and Process: Putting It All Together (10 minutes) Revisit how showcasing the entire process to students helps them understand and reflect on their learning journey, while also offering valuable insights for educators to reflect on their teaching practice. Emphasize the importance of self-reflection for both students and teachers. Facilitate a discussion on how the process, not just the final product, is key for deep learning. We will use a collaborative board for real-time sharing. 5. Interactive Reflection and Discussion (5 minutes) We will summarize key takeaways and emphasize the importance of process-based learning. More tips about where to get started. 6. Q&A and Final Thoughts (2 minutes) Final reflections or questions. Connect for future collaboration.
