I was unable to investigate/observe this during my case study. However, I would be interested in researching to find out if there is a method (digital or print) that helps students retain non-fiction facts from reading. Knowing what I have learned about sight word acquisition, I presume that printed material would provide students with a higher rate of recall. But, further research would be necessary. ]]> 2020-01-26 19:14:12 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436165879 melindakellogg1 https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166089 Do students enjoy learning using technology more than traditional instruction?

What I learned...
Not all students enjoyed using the Seesaw application to practice sight words. Some had a hard time navigating the application, and some had a hard time recalling the sight words correctly & therefore couldn't complete the activities. ]]> 2020-01-26 19:15:38 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166089 melindakellogg1 https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166286 Are students engaged in more complex  and in-depth conversations following lessons using technology or traditional methods?

What I learned...
Students are more engaged in conversations following instruction using traditional methods. This may be because they were more likely to have completed the lesson/task whereas  when using technology there are outside matters that can delay a student completing an activity (e.g., device error, internet problems, unsure user, etc.). ]]> 2020-01-26 19:17:00 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166286 melindakellogg1 https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166810 Is there a difference in knowledge acquisition and retention when using a digital format for note taking vs. pencil and paper?

What I learned...
While it may be different to recognize and recall sight words than acquire and retain content knowledge, my case study revealed that there was no major difference between digital and traditional methods. ]]> 2020-01-26 19:20:35 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436166810 melindakellogg1 https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436167394 Do students feel that a lesson given using technology has the same importance as a lesson given using traditional methods? (Do they understand that using technology or a device isn't just to pacify them)

What I learned...
Most students viewed the use of technology as a passive activity and were not nearly as engaged as they were when practicing sight words using traditional methods. ]]> 2020-01-26 19:24:20 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436167394 melindakellogg1 https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436167952 How students with naturalistic , kinesthetic, or interpersonal learning styles do using technology to learn? How are their needs met?

What I learned...
Some students who prefer kinesthetic learning did not enjoy being seated in an alternative seat (e.g., carpet, library nook, teacher table) when using the iPad to complete the Seesaw application. ]]> 2020-01-26 19:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/melindakellogg1/zx28kbruk5if/wish/436167952
