Le développement de notre société repose sur la création de communautés globales. Ce sont les jeunes qui montrent la voie dans cette réforme massive. Voici quelques questions de l’atelier: Questions cruciales : (1) Comment peut-on intégrer efficacement les TIC dans le curriculum et les pratiques d’enseignement? (2) Compte-tenu de ces affirmations, comment se fait-il que nous ne procédons pas à leur intégration immédiate? (3) Les TIC sont-elles encore perçues comme faisant partie de l’infrastructure et non d’un outil d’enseignement? (4) Quel est la position et le rôle des éducateurs dans un monde en constante évolution, où les technologies ne sont pas perçues comme des distractions mais plutôt comme permettant d’améliorer les apprentissages et l’enseignement ? |

Ronald Canuel Magog, Quebec Ron is the Director General of the public education system known as the Eastern Townships School Board, located in Magog, Quebec. Ron is the visionary leader in the successful integration of a 1:1 wireless laptop computer in all classes from Grades 3 to 11, the final year of high school. This initiative, known as the Enhanced Learning Strategy (ELS) began in 2003 and has since transformed many of the learning and teaching environments in the schools. Ron was the recipient of the Canadian Association of School Administrators EXL award for Excellence and Leadership in Education, in 2006 and recently, received the 2008 HERO in Education Award from Reader's Digest-Selection magazine, again, for his work in the creation and implementation of the ELS. Under Ron's guidance, the Eastern Townships School Board signed partnership agreements with the world famous Cirque du Soleil and with the country of Uruguay, to assist them in the largest deployment of laptop computers in the world, over 400,000. Ron has been an educator for over 33 years and has been a speaker at many conferences in North and South America, as well as in Europe. As a teacher, administrator, consultant and parent, Ron believes that education is now at an important crossroad. Ron has been often solicited for his insights and perspectives on the best approaches to take when using technology in the classroom. canuelr@etsb.qc.ca  |
