Apple Global Institute, Cork 2012: Takeaways

Spread the love

The Institute has been very enriching indeed! I have come across some inspiring teachers, great IT cracks and very dedicated educators. So what am I taking home – apart from the assignments for the group project on Digial Citizenship and OER?

A list of new Twitter contacts: The Hashtag #ADE2012 comes up with a lot of names of people I’d like to keep in touch with.

An inspiring new video, showing what Apple Distinguished Educators are and do.

Some new definitions and interesting quotes:

We require our teachers not to teach, but to mentor (Peter Scott, Open University)
Data has to belong to the learner (Peter Scott, Open University)
It’s not what you DO, but how you DESIGN it (Peter Scott, Open University)
A good communicator is falling in lover everyday (Bill Frakes)
Don’t show the tools – show the magic (Aline)
Learning how to fall ofd the bike is just as important as learning how to ride it (?)
Technology should be like oxygen – ubiquitous and invisible (?)
If you’re teaching the way you were 10 years ago, you’re guilty of educational malpractice.-J Rickabaugh
