Evolving English: One Language, Many Voices :: Map your voice - about - 8 views

  •  
    A project that gathered audio of people speaking one of two texts. The audio has been combined with a Google map to show the location of the voice. You can traverse the map, select a voice and listen to it. Shows how ICTs can be used to gather and store information. And then be used to manipulate it (to present a map interface) to allow distribution.

what has technology enabled you to do? - Guardian Witness - 0 views

  •  
    A project from an English newspaper's online presence gathering contributions to the question "What has technology enabled you to do?" Not directly learning and teaching related, but interesting.  Perhaps as a project for students?

      The ICTs I noticed were different cameras (still shots), recording devises (footage), GPS tracker, computer - relay information, download footage, follow weather patterns.

How data analysis boosted the performance of Queensland school students - CIO - 0 views

  • “I don’t buy into the fact that we can get a system – and this is not a popular belief – that can do the full analysis of what students need,” he said
  • “I value the teaching profession and I think they need to look at the data that’s put out in front of them, the information that’s cut in different ways and use their ‘neck top computer’ [brain] to make some sort of valued judgement as to what the data is saying.
  • “Information can give black or white positives or negatives, but without the analytical mind of the teacher over the top understanding the student, what’s happening at home and in the classroom, they [IT] actually miss some of that analysis.”
  •  
    Magazine report of a presentation by the CIO (Chief Information Officer) of the Department of Education and Training in Queensland. The presentation talks about how using ICT to gather and enable analysis of student data is helping schools and teachers better support students.

What are ICTs?: A Queensland View - 10 views

  • technologies that are used for accessing, gathering, manipulating and presenting or communicating information
    • djplaner
       
      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
       
      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
    • djplaner
       
      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
       
      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.
  • what, in fact, is critical is “how” the technologies are used (Reimann & Goodyear, 2004).
    • djplaner
       
      It's important how technology is used. What impact it has on learning. Using technology is not enough

  • While the computer is itself not a catalyst, its valency as a conduit for communication, collaboration and knowledge building has the potential to transform learning.
    • djplaner
       
      The ability of ICTs to support communication, collaboration and knowledge building are important. Have you used ICTs for any of these?
    • Donna Schlatter
       
      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.
    • Michelle Newton
       
      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
       
      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
    • Kate Dugdale
       
      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
       
      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
       
      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.
    • Leigh Campbell
       
      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.
