PLN ideas - 2 views

  •  
    This is a website I came across on Terry Rees blog page http://terryrees.edublogs.org/ . She says one of the most important things for her is to develop a sustainable and quality Personal Learning Network (PLN) with other professionals with which she can share ideas, experiences, thoughts, and seek advice. If you are in need of resources and advice for starting a PLN this may help. Thanks Terry for putting me on to it. Hopefully others will find it useful too.

      The main reason for blogs in EDC3100 is to encourage reflection on what you learn during the course. But it is also hoped that it may become a part of your PLN and encourage you to continue the practice.

Teachers, Teaching and ICTs | infoDev - 2 views

  • ICTs are used in education in two general ways: to support existing ‘traditional’ pedagogical practices (teacher-centric, lecture-based, rote learning) as well as to enable more learner-centric, ‘constructivist’ learning models. Research from OECD countries suggests that both are useful, but that ICTs are most effective when they help to enable learner-centric pedagogies.
  • despite rhetoric that ICTs can enable new types of teaching and learning styles, for the most part they are being used to support traditional learning practices.
    • djplaner
       
      Experience in EDC3100 supports this. People tend to use ICT to enhance existing methods, rather than for transforming what they do. Especially in Assignment 3 (which is based on Professional Experience).
  • The existence of formal and informal communities of practice and peer networks can be important tools to support ICT in education initiatives and activities. Such support mechanisms can be facilitated through the use of ICTs.
    • djplaner
       
      This is one of the main reasons behind the push for you to create a Personal Learning Network. A PLN is a peer network that can be an important aid to your teaching.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Adequate time must be allowed for teachers to develop new skills, explore their integration into their existing teaching practices and curriculum, and undertake necessary additional lesson planning, if ICTs are to be used effectively
  • Effective teacher professional development should approximate the classroom environment as much as possible. "Hands-on" instruction on ICT use is necessary where ICT is deemed to be a vital component of the teaching and learning process. In addition, professional development activities should model effective practices and behaviors and encourage and support collaboration between teachers.

      Is EDC3100 achieving this?
  • By providing access to updated and additional learning resources, ICTs can enable teacher self-learning in his/her subject area.
