Educational Technology Is Making Achievement Gaps Even Bigger - 2 views

  •  
    "The very tool designed to level the playing field is, in fact, un-leveling it," they wrote in a 2012 book based on their Philadelphia library study. With the spread of educational technology, they predicted, "the not-so-small disparities in skills for children of affluence and children of poverty are about to get even larger."

    Like it, easy for children to create their own, as you suggest, book cover. Technology in kids hands should evoke creativity and not only be a means of media consumption.
  •  
    A very useful tool. Can be used for creative designing.
  •  
    We can practice adjectives, nouns , verbs, adverbs. We can make them to create Noun Cloud. :) That would be awesome. It motivates children to create some very personalize. They would chose the shapes for their group of nouns, adjectives, adverbs, articles, etc.

    Which is a good software to help students (4-5 yrs) prepare a simple slideshow or arrange pictures in a logical sequence (eg. transformation of a butterfly from egg to adult)?

    There are a lot of different ways of using word clouds as far as EFL is concerned. You name it: 1) predict the content of a text e.g. topics, style, purpose, etc. 2) writing or speaking prompts 3) reading comprehension questions just, then comparing answers after reading the actual text 4) summarise a presentation 5) identify or create the key words to a text 6) expanding vocabulary (definitions, synonyms, antonyms, or brainstorm words associated with a new one, match parts of collocations) 7) explore a topic (students add own ideas to a question stimulus & build a cloud) 8) student ice-breaker 9) highlight examples of misspelled or overused words in student writing by inputting their own work 10) 'grammar game' e.g. students classify words from a cloud into different parts of speech or different tenses 11) 'sentence structure' game e.g. input a complex sentence or short series of sentences into a word cloud, and have students reconstruct them in the correct word order 12) 'memory game' e.g. show a word cloud, take it off the screen, students write as many words as they can recall 13) identify parts of speech (students highlight or underline in different colours) 14) Students pre-assessing their own knowledge and understanding - "What does something mean to me?" as in a KWL chart

    Hi you also use this Online RSN to BSN Degree Program for more knowledge and acknowledgement.
  •  
    I have seen these in classrooms. They definitely seem to help the students.
  •  
    It is the first time I see this app and I love it! I think it would look great on a cover and it could work really good for engaging students with a kind of crosswords´ activity.
  •  
    I went through the site and it looks like an amazing site to add to my tool/resource list. I can use it as a mindmap for children in the class and collate their ideas. Thank you for sharing.
