    About Me I'm Jenny, an early childhood teacher. For 15 years I've been teaching young children and in my spare time I've even produced two of my own. In between making their school lunches and picking up their lego, I blog about my days at our small progressive preschool nestled in the beautiful Australian bush.

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

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.

  • all embodied artifacts are rehearsed performances, ready-to-hand cultural equipment created by “packaging” procedures for skillfully encountering particular situations in the world. By mediating one’s encounters with the world, embodied artifacts constitute an integral part of cultural and individual development. First, humans embody cultural procedures through participating in social activities

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
  • 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

  • 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.
  • 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.
