February 18, 2020 (UCF Downtown, DPAC-251)
It is well known that students today differ greatly from students 10 and 20 years ago. It has even been suggested by some researchers that their brains are wired differently. These students are often referred to as digital natives and have unique characteristics that impact how and where they learn. Conversely, many educators today are digital immigrants, having particular traits that influence teaching. When these two groups meet in the classroom, there can often be “communication breakdown.” This teaching and learning day explores the unique set of characteristics each of these groups bring to the table, and how they influence teaching and learning. Participants will unpack the four pillars of 21st Century Learning and identify how they can apply this approach to their own teaching.
