    Very interesting article for those of us who want investigate about Course Management Systems. Sometimes institutions don't just care about learning outcomes but also the entrepreneurial aspects of data analysis.

    1) I love love love infographics. 2) Surprising data here. Is it that teachers overestimate themselves, or we underestimate teachers?

    3) Oops, posted before I read the fine print: "WeAreTeachers conducted an online survey...The data reported is representative of teachers who completed the survey and not projectable to the population of US school teachers." Bad on me; irresponsible of them.

    That takes care of the display challenge, now if we could only develop a more sophisticated and biologically intuitive method of data entry (no keys or multi-touch surface), the world will be a very different place. Def. an emerging technology with wild educational/training implications.

  • Many believe AR is the tipping point for mobile phones to supplant desktop searches in the next few years.


  • Tagword search on cellphones, like keyword search on desktops might become the dominant format to search for items in real-time.
  • Things in our real-world tagged with barcodes could provide much more information, which could Internet of Thingsthen be updated without having to change the original tag

    This is an editorial discussing how emerging technologies can help eliminate the need for annual standardized testing of students by tracking their progress constantly throughout the year through technology use. IPads, Khan Academy, data analysis, KIPP schools, the achievement gap, online courses and their innovations through emerging technologies are discussed.

  • Webinar guests will detail specific tactics for deploying educational technology to improve student learning, including: • How districts can more effectively analyze data to help improve academic achievement, including specific advice on how teachers should be using data-based decisionmaking to guide instruction. • How one-to-one computing is giving students access to higher-quality curriculum, topical experts, and multimedia tools. • How online courses can affordably help rescue students who are in danger of dropping out, giving them a second chance in real time that would otherwise not be available in their brick-and-mortar schools.

    I have viewed these webinars before and I would advise you to give it a go.

twitter education

shared by Jennifer Jocz on 05 Nov 09 - Cached
  • Suddenly, I’m not just the one at the front just dispensing everything, and the students aren’t just sort of milling about doing their thing — we’ve actually got a team of people working together. And Twitter is the glue that holds the team together.”
  • It’s also a data-gathering resource. Live discussion threads, Campbell noted, give professors loads of data on the previously mysterious question of what exactly is going on inside the heads of students during a lecture. No longer is a student’s ability to participate in classroom discussions contingent upon whether he is willing to raise his hand and has the good fortune to be called on, he said.

    Yesterday afternoon, some of us were at a talk by Prof. Alex Pentland I found several of the topics tie back to our class discussion. In particular, his thoughts that only the individual should have ownership over personal data and others may seek permission to access it was, I felt appropriate. Of course for young students it appears more complicated. I am considering reading his papers ( at least the non technical parts :) His ideas can impact learning in the class room too ! Please share your thoughts !

    Here is a brand new competitor for iPad, the Jetstream from HTC. This tablet takes advantage of AT&T's 4G data network, but its price tag is a steep $849. However, AS WITH ALL DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES< THE MORE COMPETITORS THERE ARE, THE MORE THE PRICE IS DRIVEN DOWN. So, perhaps this is good news for the future of tablets in schools...

    In general, these systems consist of a school photo ID card affixed to a lanyard that is worn around the student's neck. The ID has a RFID chip embedded in it. The tag includes a digit number assigned to each student. As a student enters the school or pass beneath a doorway equipped with an RFID reader, the tag ID is read, recorded and sent to a server in the school's administrative office. The captured data not only provides an attendance list (sent to the teacher's PDA), but tracks the student's movement throughout the day.

    I like that it makes attendance easier to monitor but still seems kinda creepy...and there's always a way around those systems....

    simSchool is a classroom simulation that supports the rapid accumulation of a teacher's experience in analyzing student differences, adapting instruction to individual learner needs, gathering data about the impacts of instruction, and seeing the results of their teaching. It's a virtual learning environment where instructors can explore instructional strategies, examine classroom management techniques, and practice building relationships with students that will translate into increased learning.
