that might work well for Julie (The 21st Century Learner). It is an example, do not use it for your
selected video.
2. (3 pts.) Using a word processor, write a short note to Julie explaining what the video is about and
give highlights of the key areas of the video that would be of most importance to her. Include a
link to the video.
Part 3 (15 pts.)
A couple weeks after sending Julie the video link, you get a phone call from your old high school
guidance counselor, Mrs. Hardy. She explains that Julie had actually talked with her about what you had
shared concerning 21st century skills. Mrs. Hardy was interested because she is always looking for ways
to impress upon students the types of skills they will need to live and work in the real world. Moreover,
she knows how closely those skills align with understanding technology, its impact, and the overall need
to be digitally literate. She wanted to discuss the possibility of you helping her prepare a workshop for the
high school teachers that would help them learn about 21st century skills and what it means to be digitally
literate. Most importantly, she wants to help the teachers see that these skills are needed in order for them
to be able to teach the skills to their students.
You are excited about this possible workshop and promise to send her an outline for the training. This
outline will consist of a list of relevant topics within the area of 21st century skills and digital literacy that
should be addressed during the training.
To fully describe your thoughts and ideas, you decide to create the list of topics and then create a
screencast (e.g., Jing video) of the list with you describing on the video exactly what each topic is about
and your thoughts as to why it is important to include.
Complete each of the following:
1. Brainstorm a list of relevant topics that deal with 21st Century skills, digital literacy, and with the
ISTE standards for teachers. Include between 5 and 7 items on your list. Be able to explain to
Mrs. Hardy why those items are relevant.
2. (3 pts.) Create a word processed list of the items in logical order for a workshop discussion and/or
activity.
3. (12 pts.) Create a screencast video (e.g., Jing or SnagIt) for Mrs. Hardy that focuses on your list
of workshop topics. In the video, show her the list and verbally walk her through your thoughts
on each of the items. On the screencast, record your thoughts as to why each topic would be
important for her teachers to know. The screencast video must be less than 5 minutes in length.
4. Save the screencast to YouTube (or another convenient web location), post the web address
below your list of relevant topics you generated.
Part 4 (10 pts.)
Complete the following:
1. (10 pts.) Using a word processor, write a reflection/narrative that addresses the following
questions:
o In relation to technology, what are the primary skills a teacher will need to be effective in
the 21st Century?
o What difficulties will teachers without 21st Century skills encounter in today's
teaching/learning environment?
o In what ways are the ISTE Teacher standards a roadmap for you as you develop skills to
teach in the 21st Century?
o Today, when it comes to teaching and learning, why is there so much emphasis put on the
access and use of technology? Is this always a good thing? Why or why not?
2. Your written narrative should be 1-3 pages in length (single spaced), well formatted, concise,
clear and free of spelling and grammatical errors.
