Cadre 12's Design Library for Addressing Challenges with Technology
Educators and learners face problems every day and increasing there are learning technologies that can be combined to solved this problems. In this design library, Cadre 12 have tackled a range of problems (some real and some as examples) to help you see how you might put a set of tools together to create learning contexts with technology.

(Note to students... So in the first column, write a few line description of the problem. This should then link to a web page that is a "presentation" of what you did in eluminate. You can have it be links to the tools but with demonstration content. So for the last group, it might start out..

//What do you do if 80% of the your students are suddenly sent home to avoid spreading an outbreak of swine flu. Then the story is about how quickly 5 minute videocasts were made (using JING) to demonstrate to teachers and students how skype combined with etherpad could be a quick simple way to hold classes with students at a distance. Classroom NING could be set up organize learning context and Tweetbots with the school name could be created to keep all of the teachers operating as as distributed team. (And then you show how this could be done. ) It is a great example of how with a few tools you could mobilize a solution to a this timely problem.//

Or for the 4th group...

Y//ou are a school counselor and your school wants to increase personalization of contact with students. How can interactive web tools help create a personalized extension of your work with students and get put the computer at work making sure that students pay attention to deadlines?//
