KIDS REACT TO WALKMANS (Portable Cassette Players) - YouTube - 2 views

  •  
    Video of kids (13 yo and younger) being shown a walkman for the first time. e.g. when shown Walkman headphones, "My grandpa has these!" Links somewhat to Postmans 5 things, but also to some of the primary folk doing History.

Cameras for Special Needs - Digital Photography - 1 views

      I found this  article about digital cameras in the context of special needs. Digital cameras as still webcams,  options of left handed cameras and remote trigger devices are some of the resources out there. A mobile phone has a versatile camera, on hand at most times and particularly handy for incidental learning.

    The ALEA website has a bookshop where you can purchase great texts - it's a good idea to keep an eye on this over time as they add new resources.

    Its great to hear people say that we need to work together. I remember years ago a friend of mine (who was a Grade 6 teacher) told me of her frustration when she would encourage her students and they were alive with excitement to learn and explore and the work they handed in was exceptional from her point of view. However, six months into the next year she would be so disappointed because the grades of the Year 7 students would be declining and their attitude was one of apathy. What she wanted to do was to work with the Year 7 teacher so with a combined effort they could assist the students to continue their positive attitude throughout their time at upper primary school. The Year 7 teacher felt threatened and the sad cycle continued. When I read http://www.independent.co.uk/news/education/education-news/blog-early-blog-often-the-secret-to-making-boys-write-properly-2211232.html as well as http://www.letthechildrenplay.net I was thrilled to hear what great progress is being made by teachers/schools when they collaborate. Thanks for the info.

    This site requires free registration and then sends only one email a day with the latest top picks on freeware. This is where I heard about Instagrok and others. It is well worth the time reading every day or so to build resources.

Teachers TV - 0 views

    Watch some great teaching practice in action...
  •  
    I love Teachers TV. I'm glad we can still access after it closed down a couple of years as it is so educational and gives practical demos for preservice teachers everywhere, as well as accredited educators also. It's so good to have real life teachers taking you through their strategies and lessons. very educational for those of us who are learning all the time to prepare us for the day we are the teacher.

Interactive whiteboards engage students and enhance their learning | ictinearlyprimarye... - 1 views

  •  
    Interactive whiteboard games allow the whole class to engage in a learning activity at the same time. Cooperation and collaboration between the students and the teacher is used to explore problem sole, share ideas and achieve answers. In this blog I have attached a website that links to interactive whiteboard games for kindergarten to year nine.

Back-To-Rule (2001) : Stager-to-Go - 0 views

  • Back-to-school time often coincides with the arbitrary banning of toys, apparel and assorted nick-knacks from our classrooms and playgrounds. It seems as if instinct takes over whenever administrators encounter something kids care about. The reflexive impulse is to forbid these objects from the educational environment
  • There are several reasons for taking a deep breath and exercising caution before enforcing the next pog embargo. We risk alienating children from school and missing potential curriculum connections.
  • High-tech devices allowed today may integrate prohibited technologies in the future. Convergence will bring increasing power to kids and headaches for administrators. What happens when the book bag contains a laptop, the laptop contains a cell phone or sneakers contain a laptop and a cell phone?

  • Reducing classroom distractions is often cited as the rationale for this rule, but this is nonsense. If you walk into Carnegie Hall or an airplane, a polite adult asks that you please turn off your phone for the comfort or safety of those around you. Why can’t teachers do the same
  • If a student disrupts the learning environment then that action should be punished in the same way we address spitballs, note passing or talking in class. It is irrational to have different rules for infractions involving electronic devices. We must address behavior, not technology

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