Confronting the Myth of the 'Digital Native' - The Digital Campus 2014 - The Chronicle ... - 0 views

    "It is problematic that there are so many assumptions about how just because a young person grew up with digital media, which in fact many have, that they are automatically savvy," Ms. Hargittai says. "That is simply not the case. There are increasing amounts of empirical evidence to suggest the contrary."

What Is The Role Of Content In Flipped Classrooms? - Edudemic - 0 views

  • It is not about having fun while learning something; it is about being engaged while learning it.
  • Interactive content is not necessarily inquiry-promoting content — boasting several animations and interactive buttons for the user to click-and-explore does not mean that it is able to get students thinking deeply and posing questions to seek clarification for understanding, or to apply what is taught (in that piece of content) in new situations
  • Put simply and in the context of the flipped classroom, simply forcing students to view a lesson at home before a lesson in class, or rewarding those who do, just won’t work. Having the lesson fronted by a teacher who inspires the students may work for a while but may not be sustainable in the long term.

  • The benefits of a flipped classroom are progressively recognized and relatively well-documented (Fulton, 2012; Bergmann & Sams, 2013; Bergmann 2011; Ash, 2012). In its ideal state, a flipped classroom can transform the learning experience of students. But this also means that students will need to commit close to two times the amount of time in official lessons for any given topic: once inside the classroom (lesson) and another at home watching the lesson presentation.
