The Myth Of Digital Citizenship And Why We Need To Teach It Anyway | EdReach - 3 views

  • “I get that it’s new technology. But aren’t we talking about basically the same behavior? We’ve just shifted from an analog to a digital method, right?
  • if we teach clear and comprehensive expectations about behavior we have pretty much all our technology bases covered in regard to digital citizenship.
  • digital citizenship. It’s just citizenship. The rules don’t change just because you have a screen in front of you.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • instead we teach responsible cell phone use consistent with our other behavior expectations.
  • The real way technology challenges us is the impact of misbehavior. The scope and reach is immediate and vast. An infraction that in the analog world would constitute a small gaff can become a full blown media incident in our digital age. What technology has done is taken the social consequences and amplified them beyond the capacity of many of our students to comprehend.  It’s taken what historically has been pretty low price tag infractions and inflated them at a rate many of us are unprepared to deal with. Consequences we engineer should teach.  The consequences brought about by the ramifications of misuse of technology often do not teach. They often do damage. We really have very little control of the coarse reaction the world drops on our children.

Clickers in the Classroom: An Active Learning Approach (EDUCAUSE Quarterly) | EDUCAUSE ... - 0 views

  • Clickers, or student response systems, are a technology used to promote active learning. Most research on the benefits of using clickers in the classroom has shown that students become engaged and enjoy using them.
  • For this reason, I conducted a study that compared learning outcomes resulting from the use of clickers versus another active learning method—class discussion. Even though both techniques employ active learning, would using clickers increase learning outcomes more than another active learning approach? Two key features distinguish clicker use: Clickers provide a mechanism for students to participate anonymously. Clickers integrate a "game approach" that may engage students more than traditional class discussion. The study also investigated students' perceptions of their learning using clickers versus classroom discussion
