Why technology is a necessity for modern education…

michaelfaulkner66 — 2024-03-14 01:58:45 UTC

Education technology can simultaneously make teachers’ lives easier and support higher quality education for students – its importance cannot be overstated. Promoting equal access to edtech is vital for improving education on a global scale, and will help to prepare today’s learners for tomorrow’s world.

Adapting your edtech to the current climate

michaelfaulkner66 — 2024-03-14 02:04:13 UTC

Education technology is an important resource for enabling effective teaching and learning, both in the classroom and remotely. By taking advantage of existing technology provisions, schools can adopt a blended approach to learning and be ready to adapt quickly to changes in lesson delivery.

Each and every school should consider whether their current education technology provisions can support blended learning as well as rapid changes to the classroom dynamic. Promethean has responded to the situation, building on its existing demonstration programme to give schools more flexibility with a choice of virtual, remote and on-site options. Schools can choose whether to have an entirely virtual demonstration, a more traditional on-site demonstration or a virtual demonstration combined with a one-week ActivPanel road test.

Wiki for ICT in the Classroom

michaelfaulkner66 — 2024-03-25 01:20:02 UTC

Blogs and wikis are interactive activities which can be used for assessment OF or FOR learning. They can be used to demonstrate your learning for summative purposes (e.g. an online wiki that is graded) or to enhance your learning for formative purposes (e.g. a blog post that others comment on).

This paper examines how wikis can facilitate teacher learning of classroom management cases, focusing on three affordances: social, technical, and pedagogical. Two groups of teachers utilized wikis hosted on Google Sites® and Learning Activity Management System® (LAMS) to post, discuss, and propose solutions to cases. A quantitative survey found technical affordances ranked highest, followed by social and pedagogical affordances. Qualitative analysis revealed participants valued ease of use and freedom from technical issues, enabling interaction with peers and sharing of resources. The paper suggests further exploration of wiki affordances for designing effective case-based learning environments and highlights avenues for future research in wiki pedagogy.

Engaging with Students

michaelfaulkner66 — 2024-04-24 01:00:04 UTC

Borrowed from @Carolynhanks: This is a good read with some tips on how to engage students with learning. You don't have to be elaborate and over the top. Tapping into students passions, is easy and just asking them how their weekend was, shows them that you care.
