Youth Perspectives on Tech in Schools: From Mobile Devices to Restrictions an... - 3 views

  •  
    "Abstract:      This research brief is a contribution by the Youth and Media team at the Berkman Center to its Student Privacy Initiative, which seeks to explore the opportunities and challenges that may arise as educational institutions adopt cloud computing technologies. In order to understand the implications of cloud services for student privacy more holistically, it might be helpful to examine how technology that is already implemented in academic contexts is used by youth and to explore how students feel about current practices. Towards this goal and informed by our recent research, the brief aims to make visible the youth perspective regarding the use of digital technology in the academic context, with focus on privacy-relevant youth practices, limitations on access to information, and youth's relation to educators in a high-tech environment. The brief includes insights and quotes gathered through a series of in-person focus groups as well as data from a questionnaire administered to all focus group participants. In addition, it highlights in a few instances additional research and data."

  • We at The MASIE Center were curious about how far along organizations are in using mobile devices for learning. In particular, we wanted to explore the current state of - and aspirations for - mobile learning, ask where the interest in mobile learning is coming from, and determine the key challenges and opportunities organizations associate with delivering mobile learning.
