Bridging toward a New Bloom’s Taxonomy.

In reading both the article Bloom’s and ICT tools and the blog post
Why Our Schools Need EdTech Professionals by Caleb Clark I was struck by the lack of an
effective bridge for many teachers toward an a holistic implementation of meaningful
technological integration into the classroom.
Simply put, for myself and many teachers, the lack of not only finding new technology to introduce along with a thorough understanding of where these new technology practices fit in in the Bloom’s taxonomy and higher order thinking skills creates a vacuum.
At my school we have two IT guys whose days are filled with classes, tech questions, and other tasks not related to tech integration in the classroom.
Mr. Clark hit the nail on the head with his post, many schools are lost at sea without an EdTech who can come in and bridge this gap.
