- KL After Slide 21, show TIGed video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBQwThHBy4s Different kids' brains actually ARE in the new era, so we have to be willing to adjust to that. These propensities HELP THEM TEACH THEMSELVES. We cannot let insecurities about our technological knowledge get in the way. Students can often support one another, and assist teachers – which is an empowering experience. Multiprocessing - The digital learner can do several things at once despite what parents think. One can listen to music, talk on the phone and answer email. Multimedia literacy - The digital learner's literacy is beyond text and includes images and screen literacy. This new literacy, beyond text and image, is one of information navigation…the ability to navigate through confusing and complex information spaces and feel comfortable" (Brown, 2000 p. 14). Discovery-based learning - This learning merges with play. The digital learner is active and searches for knowledge and there is a merger between learning and entertainment, thus creating "infotainment" (Brown 2000 p. 14). Bias toward action - The digital learner focuses on learning in situ. Learning is as much social as it is cognitive and becomes situated in action.
- KL - The TIGed site ( www.tiged.org ) offers a community of over 4,000 globally minded educators in over 120 countries worldwide, a growing database of global education resources, a safe and customizable online learning platform designed to support international collaboration, and professional development e-courses related to global education and project-based learning. Now we will take you through some of the elements of TIGed in the Community, Resources, My Classes and Support sections, as we did with the elements of the main TIG site.

- SH - In the resources section of platform, you’ll find TIGed’s thematic classrooms: online classrooms pre-populated with content to teach about important global issues. Don’t need to go into detail, just run through the focus of them: environmental sustainability, food systems, democracy and good governance, rural development, HIV/AIDS, tobacco. Another, soon to be launched, focuses on mental health, and another on deforestation is being launched as part of a broader environmental education and problem solving initiative just launched this week in Cape Town at the Worldwide Innovative Education Forum by Microsoft, TakingITGlobal and the Smithsonian Institution. BACKGROUND ON THEMATIC CLASSROOMS Tread Lightly - A secondary school resource for a more sustainable future Exploring climate change through the lens of ecological footprints, this thematic classroom helps secondary school students to understand basic climate change science, develop a sense of personal and collective responsibility for the earth, and adopt more environmentally friendly habits and behaviours. GRUB - Youth Perspectives on Food Choices and Food Systems Utilizing the Photovoice technique, this thematic classroom encourages intermediate and secondary school students to ask important questions about the food we eat, where it comes from, how we make food-related decisions, and the local and global impacts of these choices on human and community health. Orange Revolution This thematic classroom helps secondary school students explore issues related to human rights, good governance and political stability by examining the Ukrainian Orange Revolution in 2004 and 2005. Particular focus is placed on the role of Canadians and Canadian organizations during this period. Ayiti: The Cost of Life Developed to support learning through the Ayiti role playing game, this thematic classroom helps intermediate and secondary school students explore how rural poverty affects individuals, families and communities in developing countries such as Haiti. TIG Xpress - HIV/AIDS Young people are amongst those most affected by HIV/AIDS. Drawing on photography and digital media, this thematic classroom provides secondary school students with a participatory educational resource based on social justice, transnational communication, and global solidarity. It focuses on five main areas of HIV vulnerability: gender, migration, stigma, poverty, and access to treatment. The Virtual Classroom on Tobacco Control Smokers almost exclusively take up the habit during their youth. Designed to help reduce the incidence of tobacco use among secondary school students, this thematic classroom supports learning about the health impacts of first- and second-hand smoke, the exploitative nature of the global tobacco industry, and how to effectively encourage peers to lead smoke-free lives.
