Agenda: [[Media:Seminario - OLPC .pptx | Seminario - OLPC .pptx]]
Nearly two million XO laptops have been distributed to children in over 40 countries. In 5 countries, in particular, XO laptops are an embodiment of a deep commitment by a group of politicians, community leaders, and educators to implement disruptive large scale education reform initiatives that will advance their countries into the twenty first century and prepare their children for interconnected global creative knowledge economies. The stakes for the success of these initiatives are high, and local stakeholders as well as numerous international organizations look to these bold experiments with cautious optimism. These programs hold the promise to radically expand and realize the learning and creative potentials of entire nations at all societal levels. As such, arguably, the greatest challenges and opportunities facing these initiatives are in designing and implementing evaluation programs that help make the outcomes visible, understandable and actionable by as broad an audience as possible.

==Objectives==
*Pedro Cuellar
The goal of this workshop was to bring together some of the leading practitioners and researchers in learning, education and technology to share and reflect on methodologies and data from active OLPC implementations and to critically review promising approaches to data collection, assessment and decision making in one-to-one computing and learning projects. The facilitators and invited presenters are selected for their expertise in new media and computational literacies and curricula, data visualization and alternative forms of assessment, and educational leadership. Workshop participants include researchers and experts from OLPC laptop initiatives in Uruguay, Paraguay, Peru, Nicaragua and Colombia.

How to fit all these elements together? by Ann Koufman-Frederick

<u>Summary </u>
Ann Koufman-Frederick outlines some of the best practices on assessment of learning results in technology based projects as superintendent of Watertown Public Schools in Massachusetts.
Ann describes a hierarchy pyramid in which the foundational elements for Curriculum Application and Assessment are: Access to technology and connectivity (Network infrastructure and hardware), technical services and data management, leadership and administrative support (administrative council), and communication and collaboration strategies.
To promote their mission at the distric of Watertown, Ann focuses on two components that encompass all other strategies:
1:1 Access and Professional Learning/Development. Other important tools include: Communication & Collaboration,
Student Assessment, Content Creation & Publishing, and 21st Century Learning Environments.
To measure learning, Ann mentions examples of innovative performance based assessment tools.
Finally as a way to measure their own progress, on a yearly basis, they analyze stages of succesful implementation by evaluating practices and strategies applied within the school year. This particular event (one day retreat with all administrators) provides guidelines for school improvement planning and strategic action plans for the following school year.

<u>Summary </u>

Joan DiMicco shared effective strategies and evaluation methods from her research on social software for IBM.
The goal of creating a social software for the organization is to build a community and simoultaneously to evaluate the system. The question "what is the ROI (Return on Investment) of creating a social networking site?" can be translated into "why are people using the site?" which can bring insight on personal benefits. Consequently this can inform the kind of impact this represents for the organization as a whole. Surveys created to measure Social Capital are used to establish a correlation between amount of social capital of user and the actual type of behavior observed on the site, this last obtained by an automized system logging. Many of the ideas presented by Joan could be effective: to allow networking tools for users (teachers, students, technical teams, etc.), and to obtain inmediate data collection of user behavior.

*Breakout Session 2:
Bring Your Own Data
What data are we collecting? How are we sharing the data with stakeholders and reflecting on them?

*Day 1 Closing
Reports from Breakout Sessions and Reflections

Melissa Henriquez presented a review of the evaluations conducted across the region, [[Evaluations_indicators_review_2009-2010 | "Evaluations of OLPC projects
A review of 2009-2010 reports"]], in which we summarize the most common indicators measured throughout eight evaluations of OLPC projects as well as most common tools used for data collection.

==Main Ideas Day 1==
Participants described the following expected outcomes for the workshop:
*To make explicit what everyone is doing in terms of evaluation, why we need to evaluate.
*To find common indicators, what to measure and to measure competences/skills.
*How can we make the tools (software/journal) easier to collect relevant data?
Why do we need to evaluate? For different audiences:
*Public sectors/goverment needs valid data.
*Donors, private and public sector.
*Ourselves, to get feedback of our work, to know if it is working.
*To tell the story at scale.

What do we need to measure?
*Creativity
*Digitalization
*Technological Fluency
*Cost-Benefit Analysis
*Games-Learning

==Agenda Day 2==
*Overview of the day:
Goals and future actions by Claudia Urrea, Director of Learning of OLPC LA

*Thematic Session 3:
Alternative ways of assessment and understanding impact

Multiple Intelligences and Portfolios: A Window into the Learners Mind (book, available on arrival)

Video of Presentation Part 1 [[File:evangeline stefanakis part 1a]], Part 1B [[File:evangeline stefanakis part 1b]],

Part 2 [[File:evangeline stefanakis part 2]]

<u>Summary </u>

Evangeline Stefanakis demonstrated how useful digital portfolios can be as a comprehensive assessment system of student learning. As an addition to formal, curriculum based assesments that can only represent a snapshot in a particular time, we learned how portfolios can make evident students' learning over a period of time. Furthermore, portfolios can improve students' learning and teachers' teaching as a result of having students take ownership of their work, and fostering reflection on learning and on teaching. By incorporating the Multiple Intelligence approach, we engage students on projects that target all aspect, and incorporate different media that allow students to express themselves the way they feel more confident on. Evangeline's presentation gave us clear ideas on how we can improve the Journal on Sugar by taking advantange of its uses and adapting it towards a more structured way to collect data on children's learning.

Margaret Weigel outlined highlights from the New Media Literacy white paper, from her work as research director for the project "Confronting the challenges of Participatory Culture: Media education for the 21st Century". The proposed skills to be cultivated in an online context are: Play, Performance, Simulation, Appropriation, Multitasking, Distributed Cognition, Collective Intelligence, Judgment, Transmedia Navigation, Networking, and Negotiation. Margaret gave examples of positive and negative ways students can develop these skills, plus she presented clear guidelines for educators to assesss students' performance on each skill.
