    Sesame Workshop and The Joan Ganz Cooney Center today released the report Always Connected which examines the media usage patterns of young children. Findings include: * Nearly 80 percent of young children (ages 0 to 5) use the internet at least once a week and just under half of all 6-year-olds play video games. * Almost nine out of ten children over age 5 are TV viewers -- at least three hours daily. * A gap remains in access to technologies, especially among low income and ethnic minority children and also notable differences in usage.

    "A new app allowing parents to look at their children's call history, text messages and internet use will soon launch in Australia. The app, called Teensafe, already claims 1 million users in the US. But Australian police are warning that while the threat to children from online predators is real, spy apps allowing parents to track their children's smartphone usage are not a 'silver bullet' and could breach trust."

    Gives you current statistic on internet usage which could be handy for 'selling' your case to your school to promote policy development on digital citizenship. Also useful for assignments 1 & 2 if you need figures to support SNS usage etc.

    There's another mining boom you may have missed. It too involves paying young people six-figure salaries in their first jobs, and exploring deeper for resources that may have been previously overlooked. But it's not about driving trucks or digging holes. It's about building algorithms and crunching facts and numbers. It's mining for data.

  • Digital learning is meant to enhance learning, not simply continue it via a digital means.
  • The reason being the LMS is not just another tool; it often represents a cultural shift
  • 97% of which were from the United States
  • ...30 more annotations...
  • The data clearly reveals that our respondents overwhelmingly agree that digital learning positively impacts students and teachers.
  • In short, digital learning can enhance learning experiences, save teachers time, enable teachers to better tailor learning to student needs, aid in tracking student progress, provide transparency into the learning process for all stakeholders, and much more.
  • we’ve identified 10 key insights from our survey that provide some clarity into the current state of digital learning.
  • professional development.
  • digital citizenship programs
  • helping to address internet safety issues—teacher’s #1 digital citizenship concern.
  • Twitter
  • professionally
  • earning management system (LMS)
  • Both personalized and individualized learning are considered to be the most effective types of differentiated learning.
  • Social Media
  • debate about the role of mobile devices in the classroom rages
  • winner
  • emerging
  • mobile devices are being incorporated into digital learning more frequently than ever
  • Obstacles
  • lack of a digitized curriculum,
  • ineffective professional development and a lack of parent involvement
  • lack of parental involvement or understanding as a challenge has jumped from the #7 challenge all the way to #3
  • Digital learning takes many forms—from barely blended learning to gamified, mastery learning
  • Schoology conducted a landmark K-12 study called The State of Digital Learning.
  • As you can see, their #1 challenge is providing relevant and effective PD.
  • Many education professionals agree that ongoing instructional coaching is one of the most effective forms of professional development.
  • This year, we’re excited that nearly 70% of respondents now use the same LMS for professional development as in the classroom
  • I
  • nterestingly, schools and districts in which LMS usage is mandated are the most effective at enabling collaboration.
  • The data that comes to mind is the fact the majority of PD isn't modeling instructional best practices and that has to change.
  • From personalized learning to social media and coding in the classroom, the education landscape is being fertilized by technology and will continue to grow.
  • In fact, the data suggests that merely providing students with access to devices doesn't necessarily lead to better outcomes. But the thoughtful integration of technology to enable students to actively engage with ideas and their peers does enhance the learning experience. It's a nuanced and strategic challenge that grapples with countless tangible and abstract variables—devices, software, classroom practices, professional development, and collaboration among the many stakeholders just to name a few.

    A recent article by Lauren Davis in the Schoology (LMS) website that unpacks a survey of 16000+, mostly USA teachers, about the impact of digital learning. It includes some interesting insights into enablers and barriers for DLE. A good starting point for the 523 Assessment 3 environmental scan.
