13 reasons to use educational technology in lessons - ICT and Computing in Ed... - 7 views

  • ICT can provide both the resources and the pedagogical framework for enabling pupils to become effective independent learners. For example, computer programs are available that adjust themselves to the pupils’ level and then set appropriate tasks and give feedback on performance. Used wisely, these can help pupils to move on.
  • Where information and communications technology (ICT) is taught well, it has been shown to enhance pupils’ levels of understanding and attainment in other subjects. That’s because “real” ICT is more about thinking skills than about mastering particular software applications.
  • Pupils usually enjoy using computers and other types of technology, so lessons which make use of it start off with an advantage (which is all too often squandered).

  • Just about every aspect of modern life involves educational technology; therefore, to not make use of it in the curriculum is anachronistic.
  • ICT places all learners on an equal footing

      this is an important area. Used correctly ICT can support students that require greater levels of scaffolding and do so in a way that allows the student to maintain control of their own learning path.
  • Educational technology puts the pupil in control (if it is well-designed), enabling her to personalise the interface, select and create resources, and even choose what to learn
    • katrina carpenter
       
      This needs to be managed well as few students have the skills to fully manage what they are learning. Perhaps they do however the constraints of the curriculum require they cover set criteria. Choices are available but these still need to be guided and negotiated with the teacher
  • motivating pupils

      motivation also extends to reduced behaviour issues in a class where students are engaged in their learning

School kids correct celebrity grammar mistakes on Twitter - Your Community - 0 views

  •  
    News article describing how one Brazilian school is encouraging their students to reply to the tweets of their favourite celebrities to correct their grammar and spelling. On the plus side, it's engaging students in something they might get a kick out of in relation to grammar/spelling. On the down side, there are questions about how well this fits the Twitter culture. Some may also raise questions about the practice of having students attach photos of themselves to the tweets.

Understanding geography teaching - pedagogical practices - 1 views

  •  
    This was the first resource I came across after Googling the title I've written above. I took the advice in the learning path in selecting my subject for my unit plan (to pick a weaker teaching area in order to strengthen it) and this resource has helped me immeasurably! It provides focus questions, PDF and video samples, as well as providing additional links surrounding developing geographical thinking and communication skills and understanding geography teaching in terms of pedagogical practices. All in all, a good find!

    I found this webpage very helpful in showing teachers how to have a strong PCK when teaching Geography.
