• Higher Order Thinking - Student learning/questioning at synthesis/evaluation
• Engaged Learning - Students help define the task, the process, and the solution; collaborations extend beyond the classroom.
• Authenticity - The learning experience is directly relevant to students and involves creating a product that has a purpose beyond the classroom that directly impacts the students.
• Technology - Technology use is directly connected and needed for task completion and students determine which application(s) would best address their needs.

“Unless we resort to open-source operating systems, we might be subjected to the dominance of a
certain system...That is the reason why we seek Linux,’’ a
KIPA official said.

Economically disadvantaged students, who often use the
computer for remediation and basic skills, learn to do
what the computer tells them, while more affluent
students, who use it to learn programming and tool
applications, learn to tell the computer what to do.

programming and tool applications...they learn to

8Those who cannot claim computers as their own tool for exploring the world never grasp the power of
technology...
They are controlled by technology as adults--just as drill-and-practice
routines controlled them as students.

8We must provide new outlets for kids to practice and publish their learning.
They need to showcase their content knowledge in some way other than a bubble sheet, a test proctor, and a
newspaper article reporting the results.
When they publish personally in these new ways, there is immediate
feedback and reflection and relearning.
This is the driving force behind what we are doing....
