Teaching with Technology - Tools of Engagement - 0 views

  • Using Clickers (Personal Response Systems) to Facilitate Active Learning in the Classroom Clickers allow instructors to assess students’ understanding of the subject matter, receive immediate feedback and reinforcement for what is being learned, get shy and under-prepared students to participate, poll students’ opinions and preferences instantly, observe student misconceptions, and encourage peer instruction. Improving In-Class Discussion with Technologies Use principles of priming, integrating and reinforcing to improve in-class discussions. Use available technologies as tools for supporting these principles.

Practical Guidelines for Using Technology Tools in Classroom Teaching | CRLT - 0 views

  • While technologies make it easier for instructors to create learning opportunities, provide prompt feedback, and improve student engagement with content materials, they also pose challenges.
  • Limit seven words per line and eight lines per overhead/slide.
  • Have a clear goal for using a video clip or clips
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Avoid putting students in a passive mode of receiving information by combining the overhead/slide presentation with chalkboard/whiteboard use or other learning activities.
  • Limit the length of video clips.
  • Provide detailed instructions for students, including student roles and responsibilities
  • Create a comfortable atmosphere for the online conferencing/discussion, for example: Be an active participant. Challenge the students without threatening them. Use personal anecdotes when appropriate. Bring your own experiences to the discussion. Do not dominate a discussion or let a few students dominate it.
  • Energize the online discussion if needed (e.g., using role-plays, simulations, pros and cons).
  • Have a back-up plan for lectures (e.g., print or save the web pages on your local hard drive).
  • Emphasize the need for filtering and interpreting information on the Web when encouraging students to use online resources.
  • Use clickers in conjunction with teaching strategies such as “Peer Instruction” or “Think-Pair-Share” to improve students’ conceptual understanding of the content, as well as their critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.

  • I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially.
  • When the teacher's role is to guide, providing access to information rather than acting as the primary source of information, the students' search for knowledge is met as they learn to find answers to their questions.
  • Developing a curriculum around student interests fosters intrinsic motivation and stimulates the passion to learn.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • hen students have ownership in the curriculum, they are motivated to work hard and master the skills necessary to reach their goals.
  • In setting fair and consistent rules initially and stating the importance of every activity, students are shown respect for their presence and time. In turn they learn to respect themselves, others, and their environment.
  • Teaching is a lifelong learning process of learning about new philosophies and new strategies, learning from the parents and community, learning from colleagues, and especially learning from the children. Children have taught me to open my mind and my heart to the joys, the innocence, and the diversity of ideas in the world. Because of this, I will never forget how to smile with the new, cherish the old, and laugh with the children.
  • I will help children to develop their potential by believing in them as capable individuals. I will assist children in discovering who they are, so they can express their own opinions and nurture their own ideas.
  • My role as a teacher is to give children the tools with which to cultivate their own gardens of knowledge.
  • will allow children to become responsible members of our classroom community by using strategies such as class meetings, positive discipline, and democratic principles.
  • One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my own passion for learning with them.

  • To accomplish this goal, I will teach to the needs of each child so that all learners can feel capable and successful. I will present curriculum that involves the interests of the children and makes learning relevant to life.
