Information

• Education/Information – Past– Information was accessed by a few, well educated people– Was a process of assuring that knowledge was learned

and remembered– Being educated meant you had a great amount of

information in your memory• Education/Information – Now– Information is available to all who have digital access– Includes skills to find, navigate, access, decode, evaluate,

and organize information

Redefining Literacy 2.0 by David Warlick 2009

If all our childrenlearn to do is read,

they willNOT be literate.

Redefining Literacy 2.0 by David Warlick 2009Redefining Literacy 2.0

by David Warlick 2009

Let’s examine the information

available to our students.

Definitions

• Web 1.0 (approx. 1990-2000)

• Web 2.0 (coined in 1999, approx. 2000-now)

• Web 3.0 (?guesstimates 2015?)

Definitions• Web 1.0 (approx. 1990-2000)– "read-only web“– allowed us to search for information and read it– establish an online presence

and make their information available to anyone at any time

– focused on companies/corporations

• Web 2.0• Web 3.0

Definitions• Web 1.0 (approx. 1990-2000)• Web 2.0 (coined in 1999, approx. 2000-now)– “read-write web”– allows users to interact and collaborate in a social media

setting– focused on communities

• Web 3.0(?guesstimates 2015?)

Definitions

• Web 1.0 (approx. 1990-2000)• Web 2.0 (coined in 1999, approx. 2000-now)• Web 3.0 (?guesstimates 2015?)

– "read-write-execute“– the portable, personal web– focused on individual– allow the user to sit back and let the Internet do all of the

work for them– the search acts like a personal assistant knowing your

preferences/ likes and dislikes

Information overload!

What our children know will be

less important than what they know

what to do with it.Redefining Literacy 2.0 by David Warlick 2009

Web 2.0 overload!!

So, how do we

weed through them?

Low- threshold

Technologies

Low-Threshold Technologies• Low Threshold Application is defined as a "teaching/learning

application of information technology that is:

• reliable•accessible•easy to learn•non-intimidating •and (incrementally) inexpensive

..for purchase, training, support, and maintenance"

Gilbert, S. W. (February 2, 2002). The beauty of low threshold applications. Syllabus. Retrieved March 28, 2008, from www.tltgroup.org/gilbert/Columns/Syllabus.htm

Sounds perfect for education.

Wordle

• “A ‘Wordle’ enables you to see how frequently words appear in a given text, or see the relationship between a column of words and a column of numbers.

• You can tweak your word ‘clouds’ with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes.”

Size of a word is Proportional

• “The size of a word is proportional to the quantity associated with that word, which, in the case of free text, is the word count.” http://manyeyes.alphaworks.ibm.com/manyeyes/page/Wordle.html
