Digital Learning: What to Know in 2020 | Schoology - 5 views

  • 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.

Social Networking In Schools: Educators Debate The Merits Of Technology In Classrooms - 2 views

  • In lieu of the controversy, networks have stepped up their efforts to create safer online communities for students. Facebook, which currently has over 900 million users making it the largest social networking site, partnered with the National PTA "to promote responsible and safe Internet use to kids, parents and teachers."According to a report about the collaboration, "National PTA and Facebook will establish a comprehensive program that will provide information, support and news to encourage citizenship online, reduce cyberbullying and advance Internet safety and security." Facebook went on to create both safety and education tabs that provide information and resources for educators and concerned parents.Myspace also established a partnership with the Attorney General, created a safety task force, and released a list of strategies for online safety.
  • As the debate over the role technology and social networking play in the classroom continues, proponents on both sides are fighting to find a balance between the importance of innovation and the safety of students. Though there are risks associated with encouraging students to use social networking sites, proponents argue the potential for opportunity outweigh the costs. As solutions that satisfy both sides continue to develop, online education resources may pave the way for growth in America's schools.

    "In this digital world, opportunities for education are available like never before. Though teachers using online tools are empowering students take part in their education, they may also expose them to inappropriate material, sexual predators, and bullying and harassment by peers. Teachers who are not careful with their use of the sites can fall into inappropriate relationships with students or publicize photos and information they believed were kept private. For these reasons, critics are calling for regulation and for removing social networking from classrooms -- despite the positive affects they have on students and the essential tools they provide for education in today's digital climate. "

    Hence more reasons why teachers must be well read and prepared and willing to work with a team/committee to help solve the issues of safety, legality and ethical behaviours before working on their school DLE.

Digital Learning Environments - YouTube - 5 views

    Published on Jun 18, 2016 This is a video summary of: Veletsianos, G. (2016). Digital Learning Environments. In Rushby, N. & Surry D. (Eds) Handbook of Learning Technologies (pp. 242-260). Wiley. Download the paper from: http://www.veletsianos.com/wp-content... Digital learning environments are everywhere. Learning Management Systems (LMS) are used almost universally. People learn how to play the ukulele by watching YouTube videos. They learn how to grow organic veggies by joining Facebook groups. And they join a vast array of specialist communities that help them improve their skills, from knitting, to drawing, to managing their finances. All these technologies, resources, and platforms that people use to learn online, is what I call digital learning environments. What are some important issues that researchers and designers need to know about digital learning environments?
