    List of "things" that you'll probably still find in most schools, but which this article argues are obsolete. Many of these link with aspects of EDC3100. Assuming you agree with some of thse, a challenge is how are you going to help make these obsolete? e.g. "Isolated classrooms" is one you might be able to do something about. As is "Teachers that don't share what they do"

  • 1. The lesson involves the students themselves in actively using technology for inquiry learning.2. The technology is integral, not peripheral, to the learning activity.3. The lesson focuses on the mathematical concept, not the technology.4. The technology facilitates learning activities that would be more difficult or impossible for the students to accomplish without the technology.

    That got me thinking.. I have held the view that by giving children one to one laptops from grade 4 will just create a generation that don't know how to write..

    Tallyn, my wife is currently studying for a big test, one that will take 5 or 6 hours. One of her biggest concerns is having to write with pen and paper for that long. Something she rarely does and knows will cause great pain in her hand. Let alone the pain caused to the marker by having to try and read my wife's handwriting. In 50 to 500 times there will be people laughing hard at us for thinking the ability to write with a pen was essential.

    You can almost picture your grandchildren laughing at you for picking up a pen and paper to write your to do list can't you?? It is an exciting time we live in though:-)) Good luck to your wife.. she will need a hand massage after that sized written test..

      Although it's still Google, it only searches through journal articles and other such documents.  While it may only list them for us if we're not willing to pay for access, it's a helpful tool for finding articles that we can then look up in the Library databases to see if we have access.

      Though if you've used the "connecting Google Scholar and the library" material pointed to in the learning path, you'll be able to access the papers directly from here (at least the ones that the USQ library has access to)

  • Effective Teaching Strategies for Special Education
  • Working with Short Attention Spans Set clear expectations for all students. Break assignments into smaller pieces to work on in short time periods. Space breaks between assignments so students can refocus on their tasks. Share ideas with parents so they can help with homework. Carry out everyday routines consistently. Develop a reward system for good behavior, completing work on time and participating in class. Use visual and auditory reminders to change from one activity to the next. This may need to be done several times before the change is made. An egg timer is a good auditory tool that indicates a signal to begin or end an activity
  • Managing Constant Change
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Design teaching aids and lessons that are flexible. Add creativity to lessons and homework. Develop easy-to-use monitoring tools that are needs-based. Design lesson plans that can be modified to fit each student. Develop a set of resources and interventions that work.
  • Teaching Effectively
  • Use a multiple-scenario approach to developing lesson plans. Monitor and verify student responses to lessons. Evaluate and adapt lessons as necessary. Use peers to review lesson plans and to develop ideas that might be applicable. Develop and maintain a pool of mentors. Keep a list of resources for teaching, lesson plans and professional development Set a professional development plan for yourself and track your goals Develop or implement a system that allows for easy and comprehensive data collection to help monitor and adapt lessons Gather some tricks of the trade from fellow teachers, including those who do not teach special education.

    Hi, Reading Eggs is fantastic. I have seen it used whilst I was on practicum and the students were in the computer lab and working at their own pace. It was engaging and levelled at their ability, which I found to be the best feature of the program. As they learn they progress to the next level. Great literacy program. Thanks, Gianna

      Again a list of operations that can be done with these technologies. How many of these operations are used in learning and teaching?
    • Justene Webb
      Justene Webb on 17 Jul 13
       
      For me personally I have seen many of these technologies being used in learning and teaching. Eg - The use of Ipads and computer labs, using the smart board to do internet searches as a whole class by encouraging the students to think about key words relating to what they are researching, and using a software application called Tux Paint to re-create a story scene as an extension from an English project.
  • ICT tends to mean computers and their peripheral devices

      This is no longer the case. Mobile phones, tablets, bee bots and the integration of ICTs into a range of devices is moving beyond just computers
    • Donna Schlatter

      I totally agree.  Children are using technologies like vados, easispeaks, iTeddies, digital cameras to achieve required outcomes and assessment tasks.
    • Colleen Lenehan
      Colleen Lenehan on 23 Jul 13
       
      I thought that was the old definition of ICT and that its new definition embraced anything that was available for communication purposes, storing data, gathering it, sharing it, etc. as seen in the Hello Kitty video. I fully support the idea that ICT is not regarded as a piece of equipment but it should be a way of life where it is a/any tool used for whatever is required so rather than thinking how we can incorporate ICT into the school curriculum, it should simply be one of the avenues used by students to achieve what they want to achieve.

      The ability of ICTs to support communication, collaboration and knowledge building are important. Have you used ICTs for any of these?
    • Donna Schlatter
      Donna Schlatter on 20 Jul 13
       
      Yes, the classroom that I work in has a little down syndrome girl who uses an iPad for communication.  I know of another class who has a student diagnosed with dyslexia and he uses a computer for typing up all his work.

      What a great example of differentiation and inclusion.
  • a similarly disparate and motley collection of machines of different capacities and configurations may be being used by students and be constituting the learning environment
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 09 Jul 13
       
      It is 8+ years since Lloyd wrote this piece. In very recent times we've seen the Digital Education Revolution - where many students were given laptops - but that is now slowly moving onto the BYOD (bring your own device) era. An era where students are allowed (of if they are not, they still do anyway) their own devices (phones, tablets, computers). It's likely that BYOD is likely to end up with "a similarly disparate and motley collection of machines of different capacities and configurations", what are the implications for teaching?
    • Colleen Lenehan
      Colleen Lenehan on 22 Jul 13
       
      Surely this would encourage discrimination between the students with everyone knowing who had expensive/cheap computers with out of date/the latest versions of software packages. That being the case then it will increase the difficulty of the teacher to both teach ICT and allow the students to use their own forms of ICT. Firstly, because more recent software packages allow greater flexibility (usually) so some students will be physically capable of more complex software usage and also it would be a lot harder to guage what all students are doing on their ICT equipment as a quick glance will not necessarily let the teacher know where each student is at with their work.
  • The configuration of computers in schools may range from individual machines, to distributed models, and to sophisticated networks

      I work in a school that has recently rolled out Samsung slates to all students in grades 4-6.  Next year they are going to roll them out from grade 7-12, and then, the year after in grades P-3.  They have also commenced using a program called D2L (Desire to learn), to deliver the content to students.  It has been very interesting to see how different teachers have coped with the changes.  Some embrace it and have done an amazing job of incorporating it into their teaching, while others have resisted the changes and really struggled with incorporating it into their classrooms.  No matter what ICTs the school has available it seems, to me anyway, that the teacher will be the crucial factor as to whether these ICTs are used successfully and appropriately.
    • Colleen Lenehan
      Colleen Lenehan on 22 Jul 13
       
      I agree with you, Kate. When people resist what has to be done, then there is no creativity or extensions or allowing the students to be risk takers themselves. This is borne out by Toomey (2001) when part of his definition of ICT actually includes "manipulating" and "communicating".
  • There is no standard school configuration of machines
    • Donna Schlatter
      Donna Schlatter on 20 Jul 13
       
      How true is this... I have been to a few schools for prac and each school has a different focus on ICT.  One school I attended had a computer lab, put the screens were the good old huge dinosaur ones.  Then another school I attend had two computer labs full of up-to-date computers with flat screens etc.  It's a same that schools aren't all the same.

      I agree Donna, unfortunatley that's where funding and grants come into it as well as the hard work of the fundraising activities, sometimes the budget focus is on other areas as well. Access and equity in relation to current technology is a major issue in educational equality and very topical too.

  • Here’s a list of what you need, from some of Schank’s early 1990s work: Learning goals – target skills or understandings the student will grapple with Mission – objective the student will pursue Cover story – a fictional background story that provides a motivational context for the activity Role – the character a student will play in the simulation Scenario operations – the activities the student will perform to achieve mission, presented in optimal sequence. Resources – the reference materials the student will use to solve the problems presented Feedback – provided by experts (usually through video) but in just-in-time segments, usually telling stories about related experiences
