  • The effective use of ICT allows for the development of highly creative and inspirational learning and teaching resources and activity programmes.
  • It is a dynamic medium which, when used appropriately by students and teachers, can significantly reinforce and deepen geographical knowledge and understanding.
  • Allows students to collect, display, communicate and evaluate findings in a highly creative and personal fashion. Supportive of independent learning.

  • The Apple Watch's new feature is called the "taptic engine", which produces what Apple calls "haptic feedback". Haptics, derived from the Greek haptikos, refers to any form of interaction or communication by touch. The watch's engine allows wearers to set vibrations for various alerts and at adjustable intensity - or to send messages by taps to other users.
  • Ms Watt says the integration of haptics with the watch's map function is its most useful feature and is "definitely awesome for me as a deafblind person". It allows her to be directed around London's complex web of streets and alleys without hearing or sight

    Newspaper article about how the new Apple Watch is opening up a range of new possibilities, in particular for a deaf and blind woman. Mentions the Apple Watch's haptic capability - the ability for the device to give feedback via touch. Likely to be the first widely used example of haptics.

  • At Woodside, as elsewhere, students’ use of technology is not uniform. Mr. Reilly, the principal, says their choices tend to reflect their personalities.

      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.

      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.

      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

      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.

  • u1044051 on 17 Mar 15
     
    Thanks for sharing the resource. It clarifies key stakeholders' perspectives regarding ICT skills and the (in-)assessability of such through current testing options. Although Dede expresses cautious cynicism over the self serving nature behind each stakeholder contribution, it does indicate shared emphasis upon the importance of ICTs for the development of transferrable life skills which are reflected in the Australian Curriculum's General Capabilities. As with anything in the curriculum, interpretation of how these capabilities should be taught and assessed is subjective. Be it an impossible task or not, the key edict seems to be that educators are to provide integrated ICT/core content learning episodes that allow learners to develop universally current skills in personally authentic contexts but to also alert the learner to the transferable use of such skills for a global context.

      An obvious candidate for one of the reasons for using ICT.
  • The website Quia contains games that mimic popular games such as Battleship and Jeopardy. The teacher can type the worksheet questions into templates to quickly and easily create games for students to play during class or for homework. I personally would create these playsheets in the five-minute passing period before my students came into class. They would eagerly ask me to make playsheets.

    This is a primary school teacher whom i know personally. She began her career as a teacher soon after graduating high school - a dream job for her. Years later in her life she took a break from the classroom to run a family business. She has now done a complete 360 and has put her teaching hat back on once again. She quotes: "Well after having my first day back in the classroom I am SO HAPPY because I know I am doing the right thing for me. I had a wonderful day and I now know how much I actually missed being a teacher. Today was a big step in a new chapter that involves lots of learning for me but I am doing that through fresh and keen eyes and I am very excited!!" This woman is very inspiring and easily someone you can lean on for support. An asset to any classroom or workplace!
