Infusing Multiliteracies and Technologies through Diverse Pedagogical Approaches within and across Disciplines

Reflective Questions for Teachers

How do we create learning experiences and assessment practices that

  • reflect the ever-changing landscape of teaching and learning by adapting pedagogical approaches to strengthen instructional design and practice?
  • make connections (across disciplines, classrooms, and teachers) to provide interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary opportunities for learners?
  • model and use innovative thinking practices to build authenticity, deepen learning, increase engagement, and nurture curiosity?
  • include a selection of resources and technologies for different purposes and multiple modes?
  • create learning environments that invite learning through creative, experiential, active, and authentic ways?
  • ensure that assessment practices mirror/reflect classroom learning?
  • support the triangulation of evidence of learning (observations, conversations, products/performances) through learning experiences?

Reflective Questions in a Digital Environment

Where do opportunities exist in my teaching practice to create developmentally appropriate digital learning experiences and assessment practices that

  • respond to the ever-changing technological landscape of teaching and learning by acquiring and adapting pedagogical approaches to strengthen instructional design and practice?
  • use a selection of resources and technologies to personalize instruction, encourage connections and curiosity, and provide learners with choices in how they engage in and demonstrate their learning?
  • incorporate various forms of digital media, communities and communication to increase the breadth and depth of learners’ experiences?
  • provide authentic, cross-curricular opportunities for learners to use technology to become creators, critical thinkers and active problem solvers?
  • balance traditional and digital assessment, evaluation, feedback and reporting that reflect diverse ways of learning and demonstrating understanding?
