Our new mission calls for an "elegant synthesis of humanity and technology" as descriptive of our educational technology efforts. We chose these words because we don't want to just shove information technologies into classrooms and consider that 21st Century learning. The application of tehcnology must have a certain purpose, the strength of work well done and of course a nice presentation. All three of these are present at Wilder Elementary's online movie (the Colors of Wilder) and art show. The purpose is to share the wonderful activities and products with people beyond immediate driving distance to the school. Parents at work can get a glimpse of students in class; grandparents out of state can enjoy their latest family artwork and other educators can appreciate the activity through the online presentation. The art itself is very well done and a credit to the school, the teachers, students, parents and community. And the presentation itself is well done using technologies provided by the district and online services merged into a very pleasing web space. Visit their student gallery page by CLICKING HERE.
