eLearn: Feature Article - It's the Pedagogy, Stupid: Lessons from an iPad Lending Program - 1 views

shared by Patrick Berry on 20 May 11 - No Cached
  • The truth is that the iPad is not destined to change the face of education. Nor is it just an expensive toy bought only by Apple fanboys, as some anti-Apple bloggers hyperbolize. It's a tool, like any other, and in the classroom it must always be thought of as being in the service of pedagogy. The pedagogical foundations must be solid, because the tool will achieve no heights the underlying pedagogy will not support

    As Fraser mentioned on twitter, just because the iPad is "a tool, like any other" doesn't mean all tools are equal.

  • This puts me in mind of a theme I've been developing in various conversations and presentations over the last few months: that technology, pedagogy and curriculum each have influence on the other. If you're not able to modify your teaching methods or curriculum to take account of new technology, that's a barrier to getting the maximum utilisation out of these devices.

    This is from Fall 2010.  One very interesting part of the summary states: "From a faculty perspective, the greatest benefit was having uniform hardware and software available across the class. Said differently, faculty knew all students had access to the same learning tools. This was critical when planning assignments and class activities." Yes, this is exactly what Speirs was talking about in Run What Ya Brung.

    Very cool setup to replace whiteboards or smart boards with a single iPad app that gets you a lot functionality.

    I find this article to be helpful for those of us about to work with the faculty in Academy e-Learning at Chico State. It helps paint a picture of how it has been used in Higher Ed, what worked well, what didn't and how to use it.

    Nice free iPad intro app here.

    This looks like a good freebie app aimed at new iPad users. Maybe something to consider for AeL3?
  • Eddie Vela on 30 Apr 11
     
    I agree. It's free for now (otherwise $0.99). Looks to be a great introduction to the iPad app. I just downloaded it and already learned new stuff about the iPad.

    A good break down of app numbers per store.  It's important to note that price is just one consideration in the purchase decision. Also note that when an app is free and supported by ads, you are what's being sold.  It's not bad (or good), it's just important to know.
