When you woke up this morning, were you in a house, an apartment, or a condo? Look around you. What kinds of buildings do you see? Skyscrapers, mid-rise office parks, strip malls, tracts of suburban homes, fields or water? When you went to work, did you drive, bike, take a train, or walk? When you go to buy food, how far do you go, and how do you get there? Where do you go to get a drink? Via Mr. David Burton

The Padagogy Wheel is designed to help educators think – systematically, coherently, and with a view to long term, big-picture outcomes – about how they use mobile apps in their teaching. The Padagogy Wheel is all about mindsets; it’s a way of thinking about digital-age education that meshes together concerns about mobile app features, learning transformation, motivation, cognitive development and long-term learning objectives.

Digital pedagogy is such a complex field, but it doesn't have to be! The SAMR model, Bloom's taxonomy, frameworks for teaching literacy, numeracy and other capabilities, as well as this pedagogy wheel are great tools for helping us to get through the fluff and into what really matters - the learning experience. It's all about the pedagogy first - learner-centred, content-directed - and the apps we use to apply that pedagogy, second.

This is a clear representation of thinking which I think all teachers should have a look at and apply to their curriculum planning.
