ICTs and Pedagogy

Matt has opened my eyes to view how education can change by the use of the cloud. His perception seems futuristic, but may be fulfilled in the near future. I have highlighted some information that I found interesting for people to view.

Kathy Cassidy writes and shares a video about what risks are acceptable to take when teaching children new tasks such as reading and writing. The idea that risk taking is apart of teaching is hard not to agree with. All students are individual and have a different way of learning, so approaching activities with different mindsets can be quite daunting. As teachers, she writes that we need to grasp the idea of the work risk-taking.

Erin Klein's blog post '3 Reasons to Use Bing in the Classroom' raises many issues of child safety on the Internet. One of her fears are what students will come across while independently researching Bing. She stresses that teachers not only need to teach students how to use ICT's but how to be 'digitally responsible'.

Erin Klein is well known for being an award winning educator, a national keynote speaker and achieved her masters in education. She provides information to her readers about creative ways to amp up lessons, keeping organised and gives tips and tricks for classroom activities and using ICT's.
