Put+Valley+2.0+Teacher

=Describe the Put Valley "2.0" teacher.=

- relinquishes control of the classroom to the students - uses Wikis for student collaboration - isn't the keeper of the content anymore; just the partner in helping to building critical thinking - uses digital portfolios - works with teachers from other disciplines, grades, schools - uses distance learning to offer differing perspectives on topics (regional, national, international) - uses video conferencing - provides alternative assessments - provides students with choices as to how they want to offer proof of their content knowledge (OWNERSHIP!!) - allows fluid curriculum from year-to-year, unit-to-unit - current - up-to-date - "hooks students up" with experts in a particular area - classroom and work is universally accessible (everything saved online; anywhere, anytime) - uses Delicious - uses enhanced podcasts

has more ability to differentiate instruction based on students' needs and abilities uses the copier less, creating a "Green Classroom" more willing to learn from their students Students teach one another and learn from each other as well!!
