The Overselling of Ed Tech - Alfie Kohn - 2 views

shared by djplaner on 16 Mar 16 - No Cached
  • y, my response to ed tech is “It depends.” And one key consideration on which it depends is the reason given for supporting it
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      'd sugest that "it depends" includes consideration of the "somewhere" in which it is being used. The class, the learners, the teacher(s), what is being learned..
  • But the rationale that I find most disturbing — despite, or perhaps because of, the fact that it’s rarely made explicit — is the idea that technology will increase our efficiency
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      And here's #2 of the "big three".
  • Other people, particularly politicians, defend technology on the grounds that it will keep our students “competitive in the global economy.”
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      The first of the "big three reason". As here, there are arguments aginst this particular reason, or at least for not having it drive the why (not) question
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • We can’t answer the question “Is tech useful in schools?” until we’ve grappled with a deeper question: “What kinds of learning should be taking place in those schools?”
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      The "theory" method from the Why (not) framework can help inform this, but you do need to question your deeper assumptions about this question. Of course, the problem you face is that the "way things are done" impacts this greatly and can limit what you can question
  • Some people seem to be drawn to technology for its own sake — because it’s cool
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      Why "goodish practice" can be a problem. Often it's what is "cool" that attracts attention.
  • Despite corporate-style declarations about the benefits of “innovation” and “disruption,” new forms of technology in the classroom mesh quite comfortably with an old-school model that consists of pouring a bunch o’ facts into empty receptacles
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      i.e. horsey horseless carriage thinking
  • Far more common, in any case, are examples of technology that take for granted, and ultimately help to perpetuate, traditional teacher-centered instruction that consists mostly of memorizing facts and practicing skills
    • djplaner
      djplaner on 16 Mar 16
       
      This is where we can have some argument. There is some value in doing this type of stuff as long as there is amplification going on AND it's part of a broader move from traditional forms of learning to different types of learning. I'm also troubled by the "one size fits all" approach to this. "Nothing works everywhere".
  • According to an article in Education Week, “a host of national and regional surveys suggest that teachers are far more likely to use tech to make their own jobs easier and to supplement traditional instructional strategies than to put students in control of their own learning.

      There's nothing wrong with using ICT to make your job easier, but it shouldn't be the only thing you do with it

The Effects of Whiteboard Animations on Retention and Subjective Experiences when Learn... - 1 views

www.sciencedirect.com/...S0360131516300550 research reasons animation whiteboardanimation
shared by djplaner on 17 Mar 16 - No Cached
  • we found that whiteboard animations have a positive effect on retention, engagement and enjoyment, although we do not rule out the possibility that some of this result is due to novelty
  • While animations have a long history in the realm of education, and there is a plethora of research on instructional animations, attempts to measure their impact on educational outcomes have been inconclusive and often contradictory (Betrancourt, 2005)
  • For practical applications, however, the relevant question is not whether animations affect learning, but rather when and how animation affects learning ( Höffler & Leutner, 2007; Mayer & Moreno, 2002)
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Thus, the goal of this study is to investigate the relative effectiveness of whiteboard animations on retention and subjective experiences of enjoyment, engagement, attention and challenge compared to more common and less costly instructional materials
  • Overall, we found significant positive effects of the use of whiteboard animation in conveying physics lessons
  • While encouraging, these findings suffer from some shortcomings: the lessons are all in one topic area, and the narration is, from the outset, conceived with animation accompaniment in mind, which may unfairly represent the other formats. This is a general enigma of media comparison studies; if you use the same material in all contexts, it may skew in favor of the context for which it was originally designed. If you don’t use the same material you cannot guarantee uniformity of experience.

shared by djplaner on 14 Jun 15 - No Cached
  • blogging is a great way of expanding the immediate classroom community
  • teachers are able to incidentally include the development of keyboard / typing skills, teach about copyright and Creative Commons, allow students to develop their navigation and research skills, and foster the smart, safe and respectful methods of electronic communication; thus giving the students the potential to become more literate with technolog
  • djplaner on 14 Jun 15
     
    A blog post (was an article) making the argument that blogging is now an essential literacy. Includes many of the arguments why EDC3100 students are required to blog. It's now just about the end of the S1, 2015 offering of EDC3100. I wonder what the folk in that offering think of this and blogs. I know I've seen a few express some disquiet about the value of blogging.

    The students in Scott Jackson's eleventh grade American History class have almost no common knowledge about the country's early beginnings and important moments. His students at Brooklyn International High School are recent immigrants to this country who are learning English and how to be American school students at the same time.

      The image below (sorry had to highlight more than the image) is an example of a link to an online resource. It's actually an example of two types. First, click on the image and you get taken to a larger version of the image on another site.  i.e. it's linked to another resource. But the image itself as embedded in this page is actually coming from somewhere else online.  Another example of a link to an online resource.

      Hi djplaner This image has many words that resinate with how I am feeling at the moment including; clever, excited, interested and successful! I am very excited to extend my knowledge of what the wonderful world of ICT has yet to teach me. I just learnt about ICloud and Drop Box today from one of the teachers on the campus. Just loving how everything on the world wide web is connected and through accidental networking I can learn so much! Just clicking on this resource has linked me to another page with information regarding scootle and campus information. How beneficial! Who knew that pictures could be hyperlinked as well as words and URLs.

    A Swedish academic writes an open letter raising some concerns about the SAMR model. A common model for understanding what ICT can be used for. Mentioned briefly in the week 3 learning path.
