    Over the years we have seen little time or funding devoted to professional development (PD) that might equip teachers with the skills required to make smart and productive use of new technologies. What little PD we have seen was devoted mainly to the learning of software and how to operate the latest toys. We have too often placed carts before horses. Managing learning in the laptop classroom requires considerable savvy. This article explores the dimensions and characteristics of such classrooms, identifies the chief challenges facing teachers in such space, and suggests moves, tactics, strategies, tricks and scaffolding designed to optimize student learning.

    Student Response Network (SRN) is a powerful "virtual Clicker" student response system designed for use in school computer labs or with wireless laptop groups. It does away with the need for personal handheld "clicker" devices by providing a software-only solution for use with networked Windows desktops or laptops.

      And the reason is that we buy toys and only allow our students to do what they always did before, yet we expect different results. Notice what they say these kids will use these ipads for. Revolutionary? Hardly. Sound education? Not even close.

  • As the project got underway, there was considerable interest in seeing the how similarly K-12 and higher education were viewing emerging technology. As it turned out, there is a considerable overlap, but there are also clear distinctions.

  • barriers such as policy constraints on using online tools, the fact that many students do not bring laptops to school (as opposed to many college students, who do), and policies that restrict Internet access in many schools.

      I hope so. But, as I travel around the state I'm still seeing schools blocking wikis and blogs - even in IU buildings where the only users are adults! The fear of lawsuits is palpable! What we need is a news-worthy crisis to make us take this seriously.

    "In most classrooms around the world, using cell phones to send text messages and laptops to access sites like Facebook and Twitter are very much discouraged. Considered a high-tech distraction that impedes the learning environment, such actions often end in the student being reprimanded, penalized and even having their devices confiscated."

    Traditional computing labs need to transform into flexible, technology-enhanced learning spaces. Initial research into space use and future needs can guide design and resource decisions. Involving all the stakeholders invests them in the outcome and optimizes design choices. Small changes can have big effects in redesign of existing spaces.

    Outlook is a Microsoft Corp. developed email client that works with the Windows operating system (Windows 7/8/10). It allows users to send emails from various devices like smartphones, laptops, etc. To use this application you need to create an account that will be linked directly to your phone number or your social media profile such as Facebook or LinkedIn etc. depending on how you want to link it to other people's contact list so that they can easily find out who their mutual contacts are from the app itself without facing any difficulties in using its features like calendar sync etc.

  • Columbus Signature Academy
  • New Tech Network of schools which are problem based learning high schools. The first thing I noticed was the open spaces and architecture
  • The second and more lasting thing I noticed was the students. They were in hallways and classrooms. They were on laptops, listening to headphones, working independently, working in groups, and working on projects. Everyone seemed engrossed in whatever tasks they were involved in. Not everyone was doing the same thing. It was not quiet, but it also was not loud either. The one group of people I had a hard time locating were the teachers.
