What is the future of technology in education? | Teacher Network | The Guardian - 0 views

shared by pristine_crazy on 07 Mar 16 - No Cached
  • The future is about access, anywhere learning and collaboration, both locally and globally. Teaching and learning is going to be social. Schools of the future could have a traditional cohort of students, as well as online only students who live across the country or even the world. Things are already starting to move this way with the emergence of massive open online courses (MOOCs).

    Matt has opened my eyes to view how education can change by the use of the cloud. His perception seems futuristic, but may be fulfilled in the near future. I have highlighted some information that I found interesting for people to view.

    Hi David, This looks like something new and fun but is it? Is this technology replacing, enhancing or transforming learning? Also there are only 8 children in the video in a real prep class there would be 20 plus and they would not be as calm and well mannered when taking turns. Seems like fun for a small group all the same.

Analog and digital technology - What's the difference? - 41 views

  • Now pretty much everything seems to be digital, from television and radio to music players, cameras, cellphones, and even books
  • we first convert the information into numbers (digits)

      It is during this conversion process that information can be lost. Depending on the process digital doesn't always capture all the gradations in analog data. Think of the difference between an analog clock (with an hour hand and a minute hand) and a digital clock (showing just hours and minutes). WIth a digital clock you can only ever see the exact minute 12:01am or 12:02am. The digital information doesn't show you the time between 1 minute past and 2 minutes past. But with an analog clock the minute hand is always moving. At halfway between 12:01 and 12:02 the minute hand will be halfway between the 1 and the 2 minute mark. If you look closely you will be able to see that it's halfway between.

    To me analogue means the old and digital means modern, and i am kicking myself because I knew on the quiz that the TV was not digital but because I thought of it as a way to communicate I ticked true. I have a digital watch (fitbit) and I wear my analogue one as it does not go flat on me, the joys of digital technology.
  • chloe260 on 13 Jul 16
     
    I actually thought similar to Susan, hence why I also chose true for the television question. I assumed ICT was any means of relaying information or delivery information, other than books or paper articles. Definitely a lot to learn regarding ICT

    What being digital means Being digital means more and more ICT devices are far more instant. They need to be mastered because this is the world we live in now even though there is still room for analog technology. ICT devices are all digital and is widely used in school and society itself.

    The teachers using effective pedagogy to help students in mastering ICT devices needs to be put into consideration in our local schools and community. The more ICT devices are explicitly taught, the more school community and activities around ICT become accessible in our classroom.

    The key word here is 'Physical' education. I can only condone activities that are of physical nature. If the ICT is restricted to hands controlling a remote then I would not execute them in my PE classroom. I can see how some of these games add excitement to teaching and learning but are they still teaching the kids the fundamentals? You cannot expect a child with no experience in the water to swim proficiently or with confidence no matter how much swimming gamification practise they've had. It is unrealistic and dangerous. Gamification has the ability to help correct techniques in elite athletes and create visuals for young children but is it really helping them with their stamina? Are they giving a 100% or just doing it half-heartedly, more for the fun? Physical education is just that ... physical. It helps your lungs develop and makes you stronger, fitter and healthier. I don't know whether I am for or against ICT in P.E.
  • djplaner on 15 Mar 13
     
    I didn't look very far in his blog, but it does appear that only the first post is talking about gamification. There are other post where he is exploring a range of resources associated with both the health theory side and also the physical movement. The rationale for sharing this was for the entire blog. To see a HPE teacher that is engaging with a whole range of ICTs, including some you may have problems with.
  • anonymous on 28 Mar 14
     
    He does discuss other reasons why ICTs should be used in classes, but unfortunately doesn't give enough practical examples. The gamification he talks about most specifically is a dance game on the wii. Now of course the students are taking part in a game, but their bodies are moving just like they would be if they were dancing without the use of the game, so it is definitely physical. Using these types of games in your teaching shouldn't outweigh the the students taking part in physical activity or sports and training, but it should supplement it. I think using ICTs in HPE will help to improve motivation and interest in students who are uninterested in sport, which is a big focus that teachers face, particularly with junior high school girls. Using these games to get them interested is better than forcing them to take part in an activity where they aren't going to put in much effort anyway. ICTs are also immensely beneficial to students studying PE in senior, as a lot more of the focus is on technique and improvement, so using videos to view performance and receive feedback is great for these students. Especially the apps and programs you can get nowadays that let you pause and rewind video, play in slow motion, and draw on the screen (to check if your body is creating the right angles in the movement etc). In primary they wouldn't be so concerned with technique improvement like this, but ICTs can be used to expose students to sports that they wouldn't normally see or experience. Primary students could research and create their own games and sports using the internet and computers. (It is harder for me to think about the primary context, because I haven't had much to do with it). I am sure there are many ways ICTs can be incorporated in the Primary HPE setting, you just need to think outside the box.

    Oops, I think I got PE Geek confused with a PE blog I was reading recently. After looking at the actual link, this PE geek offers so much more! It is actually great, the apps he talks about are great for primary and secondary.

    I came across a fantastic app for students called 'Popplet' which is a tool for students to make graphic organizers to visually represent their ideas and thoughts on a particular topic. This app can be used for sharing and collaborating and is an effective pedagogical tool to use in all learning areas.
  • tanyaward77 on 28 May 17
     
    I used Popplet the first time last week during class and I must say, it is a fantastic app. The students enjoyed brainstorming ideas through the use of this digital tool and were probably the most quiet they'd been all week. I will definitely be exploring this app in greater depth and using it in the classroom whenever the opportunity arises. Thankyou for sharing.
