This presentation was made possible by Jill Ackers and Dayna Laur, Project ARC, during the TCEA 2018 Conference. It was refreshing to listen to two presenters who spoke about the importance of unpacking instructional design in order for students to learn, and reflecting as to what our schools would look like in 2030.

The presentation began with challenging the audience to portray different scenarios, a surprise free scenario, an optimistic scenario, a pessimistic scenario, a disaster scenario and a transformation scenario as to our take regarding the impact and relevance of technology integration in student success, student learning, and teacher growth and development. It was interesting to listen to what each other have to say, based on the given scenarios, and what made it more interesting is the evidences that each participant/audience has provided with his/her statement. This is one activity that I would like to try during one of my meetings! 

As an ever-progressing race, we humans are always looking for something new, different, innovative, or better to support and serve our continuous desire for growth and development, meaningful insights, and purposeful contributions to society. As educators, it is in our nature to strive for something better, more improved, and if not, to change something that may not be working anymore.

Many of us are also aware that our current education system is challenged with staying relevant with the fast-paced and constantly-changing demands of society, particularly in ensuring students to be prepared and ready to serve the human race. For example, the technology realm is one of the common areas where change is happening too quickly and progressively, which have either been received positively or negatively by people. In doing so, the evolution of the web brings about great anticipation as to what students need to learn and how educators can best prepare them for the future. 

With this in mind, I will ask you the same question that was asked during this presentation. That is, "When you enter into a new or not so new learning experience, how will you rewire your way of thinking that will lead to the transformation of teaching and student learning?" More of my notes on this presentation are shown below.
