Why Technology in Schools? | EdTech Action Network - 0 views

  • Seventh graders with a variety of physical, cognitive, and emotional disabilities benefited from the use of laptop computers, provided to students as part of Maine’s Laptop Technology Initiative. “Overall, special education teachers viewed the laptops as highly beneficial to their students with few exceptions,” according to a teacher survey. “The laptops were credited with improving the engagement of students with disabilities with their school work; increasing their motivation and ability to work independently; and improving their class participation, interaction with other students, interaction with teachers, and class preparation. Special education teachers and parents indicated that the laptops also increased students’ personal organization. Another important finding of this study was that special education teachers perceived their special education students to have increased the quality and quantity of their writing.

When teachers have a positive attitude about using technology, they often excite students’ interest in technology as well. Students are able to learn skills that are related to technology which will add to their utilizable skills in the future.

Pros & Cons: Is Elementary Too Early for 1:1 Technology? - Getting Smart by Guest Autho... - 0 views

  • Students in elementary school are not too young to benefit from 1:1 technology. Care must be taken, however, to ensure that the benefits of 1:1 are maximized for young students without taking away physical books, manipulatives, and opportunities for physical movement. 1:1 is all about students having ubiquitous access to technology when it is beneficial; it certainly does not mean that students will use technology for every single minute of their classroom experience.

Using Presentation Technology in the Classroom | University of Wisconsin Whitewater - 0 views

  • make it easier for students to take notes and track instructor thinking
  • If an instructor has taken time to write it down, it must be worth the student writing down. Students will assume anything appearing on a PowerPoint slide is important, unless they are told specifically by the instructor to focus on some points of information and not others. Some of us like having the slides available on BlackBoard before class, some of us don't.
  • Effective instructors are likely to use technology effectively

  • Strive for balance: make sure that there are equal doses of technology and human interaction. 
  • PowerPoint may stimulate, or it may overload. Balance: half of a student's notes might come from PowerPoint, the other half should be things derived from the instructor or the remarks of other students.

  • Flashnotes allows students to upload their lecture notes and sell them to other students who need more help or resources. The rating system allows the best note takers to get more business and the general pool of knowledge expands as students continue to share their work with one another.
  • Study Blue’s main attraction is that it is mobile. Whether standing in line for coffee, riding the train, or waiting at the dentist, a student can easily access their class work and prepare for an exam. The social aspect also helps students find other people studying similar subjects, capitalizing on a different set of notes and study guides.
  • Despite the rising popularity of tablets, Google’s Chromebook may snatch the competition in the lower grade school classrooms. The laptops have a few distinct advantages over the apple iPad: -They are less expensive -One-button-push easy setup -Easy to control settings and restrictions -Offers the traditional keyboard for fast typing and note taking -Hardware fixes are easier and less costly

  • While not a technology per se, this teaching model is using technology to change the way instructors teach. Rather than spending the class time lecturing the students, the lectures are delivered to the student’s in video format for them to watch at home (or in study hall). Then, the classroom time is set aside for 1 on 1 help, discussion, and interaction based on the lecture homework. With nearly every student carrying a mobile device or laptop, this model may give students and teachers more time to work on areas of difficulty rather than simple straight lecture. For too long, instructors have seen that precious class time go to waste while a teacher scribbles on a blackboard and has their back to the students.
