Developing students's Digital and Media Literacy includes getting them to understand the impacts of technology on their lives and communities.
New technologies create benefits and drawbacks, intended and unintended consequences, advances for some and harm for others.
From an instructional standpoint, students can learn about technology by exploring the history of technology.
Technological change and diffusion is one of the main engines of history, propelling new developments and the radical rethinking of old assumptions and practices. Think of The Scientific Revolution, for example, and how it transformed Europe and the world, even though many of the new ideas had already been developed in non-western societies.
The Massachusetts History & Social Science Curriculum Framework is filled with opportunities to explore technology and its impacts on people and societies.
DIRECTIONS: Write a 1 Page Response
1. Review the Massachusetts curriculum standards for the subject and grade level you are teaching and locate one or more standards that address science, technology, technological innovation and societal change.
2. Examine resourcesforhistoryteachers wiki page(s) for that standard or standards and assess the resources provided by teaching about technology and technological change.
3. Explain how you plan to integrate teaching about technology in learning experiences related to the standard(s) you are reviewing.
