Extractions: Going the Distance By George Grimes Filamentality: webbing the curriculum to the standards Teri Terry, a media specialist for Pinckney High School, President-Elect for The Michigan Association for Media in Education (MAME) offers its members a variety of opportunities to gain professional development. One experience called the MAME Academy is offered in cooperation with Eastern Michigan University. The Academy has been offered the past eight years and each year has addressed not only current trends in the media profession, but also ways to integrate the Internet into the school curriculum. In August 1999, the Academy focused on Information Power , the "Big6" and "Filamentality." The national guidelines, Information Power , set the standards for the library media profession to use in developing their curriculum. The "Big6" research/reference process, is the means of implementing those standards. "Filamentality," as the participants of Academy VIII found out, is the vehicle, which delivers it all. Tom March , with the support of Pacific Bell, developed the interactive free Website called "Filamentality" to provide a template for quality designed learning activities using the Internet. This learning/teaching tool consists of two components: "filaments" (similar to the strands of a spider web), and "mentality" (similar to the brain’s thinking capacity). The components of Filamentality work together to spin pieces of the web into web-based learning activities.

This model was developed in 1995 at San Diego State University by Bernie Dodge with Tom March . For more information about WebQuests, visit The WebQuest Page Clay Animation iMovie Projects - Coming Soon! Thematic Web Units - Using the knowledge and skills acquired in methods classes and student teaching, students created instructional units for elementary students and teachers. Most of the student units are designed to teach specific ideas and concepts found in the Virginia Standards of Learning. The teacher units offer lesson plans, activity ideas, and background information for specific topics in the curriculum. Subject Samplers - This format presents students with a small number of links (3-5) organized around a main topic. Students do, read, or see something at each site and then are asked to respond to by carrying out activities such as journal writing, creative artwork, poetry writing, and more.

Extractions: Theory: an Introduction In 1995, "What's on the Web?," was written with the goal of scanning the Web for what might be useful to teachers and students. The "might be useful" was not individual stellar Web sites, but a broader contextual framework to cyberspace: if not exactly defining the universe, I hoped to at least mark out that some things are galaxies, a few constellations, and many are stars radiating their own special light. Books entitled such things as "Explore the Unleashed World Wide Web in 7 Days for Dummies/Educators" list tens of thousands of "Killer Web sites," implicitly suggesting that once you get a handle on these you'll have "done" the Web. But this is akin to getting access to the Library of Congress and being handed a piece of paper listing someone's Top Ten Favorite Books. Oh yes, and the library's collection doubles in size every three months. So, it's not the titles that are needed, it's the structure, the organization, the forest for the trees.

We eventually decided upon a handful of different application types . Most of what is on the Internet is information (resources and references) which contributes the raw material for learning, but processing the learning itself still falls to the teacher and learner. Before someone can be expected to teach students something (let alone champion, evangelize, or inspire), that person needs to have a heart-felt, internalized insight on the value of what he or she is teaching.

Extractions: WebQuests A wonderful way to get students on the INTERNET in quality learning situations is to create a Webquest or Scavenger Hunt. Hunts can be curriculum related and highly motivational. The teacher ensures "safer faster hunting" by finding the links first and cuts down on the time required to complete the hunt. They can be very simple or difficult depending on the student level. Questions can have a link for the student to click on to find the answer. A hunt could take a student to many different websites OR just one. Other quests can require the student to search for the answer. Some quests supply key words and the particular search engine. Every time students visit a web site, they are working on reading comprehension, and processing and applying information. Students learn how to work between two programs. Scavenger Hunt. 1.)One is to create one in WORD and save it in your computer. Students can access it the way they do their own saved files. They will write their answers on the printed version of the hunt. Clicking on the hypertext links takes them to the Internet site you've selected for them to find the answer. 2.)

Extractions: WebQuests are curriculum activities or units that engage students in authentic tasks. They are different from Treasure Hunts in that WebQuests involve the use of resources to solve a problem or to come to a conclusion about a topic. A Treasure Hunt involves students in using sites to answer individual questions. While Treasure Hunts are effective in getting students to try different Internet resources, WebQuests give students pre-defined resources that the instructor has already determined to be useful to the defined problem solving task. The Internet is the main source of information and motivation for a WebQuest, but other print or non print media are also used. It is important to use a variety of information sources so that students realize that the Internet is not the sole source of information for research. The Task:

This project will enable students and teachers to make worldwide curriculum connections. Students with limited access to technology outside the classroom will learn to use and incorporate technology as an integral part of their lives through this project. There is a vast amount of information available on the Internet that supports Utah State Office of Education (USOE) core curriculum. Our goal is to organize this information in a way that makes it meaningful to students and teachers. Filamentality web software enables the Internet user to manage Internet sites and tie them to curriculum by designing a hotlist, treasure hunt, or activity page/web quest. Project teams, composed of students and teachers, can teach students how to use Filamentality. Students and teachers can then create curriculum-based web pages that can be placed on activity pages/web quests to be used by their peers globally. This creates a two-way learning model, shifting participants from active learner to active teachers within their own classroom setting. Salt Lake City School District (SLCSD) has an increasingly large population of low income students who speak a language other than English. The Internet will help students see relationships in their world as they use the Internet to synthesize information, and it will give them lifelong skills to repeat this process, as outlined in the State Life Skills document.

Institute 1: World-Mindedness For Teachers This workshop is for teachers who wish to incorporate more world-minded materials and methods into their existing programs; the content covers many dimensions of Geography Education today, providing exposure to and experience with a large range of ideas and practices. If there is interest, we cover the "Mapping The World By Heart" year, but in any case we talk about many activities and lessons from that curriculum. Large-scale group projects will be discussed, and demonstrated, such as the global-trade game created for North Shore Country Day (and featured at NCSS in 1999). We will also spend time making and using outdoor maps, and on world-minded activities of all kinds, and there will be lots of discussion and problem-solving people sharing their teaching assignments, and the particular questions they have and problems they want help with.
