    We need to teach responsible behavior!  If you don't allow for it, they will do it anyway!  Next time you walk into a workshop with educators,  notice how many checking those networks during the presentation. One-to-one schools have a unique opportunity to keep students MORE engaged by providing multiple stimuli and differentiated tools.  Some students may love the collaborative notes, others the lecture, and others a multitude of things.  Having a conversation about what distracted and engaged looks like with your students may be a great place to start.

Technology teaching cell phone

  • Anderson said cell phones are getting a second look at the senior high. As the phones have become more pervasive and more powerful, teachers and administrators have begun to look at ways they can be used as tools to enhance education rather than disrupt it. Students with Internet-capable phones have access to the district's Infinite Campus student management system, to check assignments, contact teachers and manage their school life online, he said. Mobile communications are an ever-growing part of what students have to cope with and manage, he said. "It's appropriate to bring that into our curriculum." While more and more students carry more and more powerful mobile phones, those who remain unconnected have one fewer option than they did several years ago. There's no point in a student keeping a few coins in his pocket in case he needs to use a pay phone - coin-operated phones have left the buildings. "I don't think they'd know how to use one," Anderson said.

    Unlike parents or teachers at their age, 21st century students are fortunate to have what Marco Torres refers to as "the global stage" which describes the worldwide publishing potential now offered by the Internet. Yet, for the most part students are performing on this stage completely devoid of teacher or adult influence. It is unfortunate that outside of school students operate in a world where they are interacting, publishing, and producing for thousands, yet as they enter the school building, they have to power down and produce work usually for an audience of one.

    This schism between how schools have traditionally taught and how students want to learn is bringing education ever closer to a tipping point.

    "When you cram any innovation, in any sector, into an existing model, that model basically usurps it, conforms it to the way the model already operates," says Michael Horn, a co-author of Disrupting Class: How Disruptive Innovation Will Change the Way the World Learns. "It doesn't fundamentally change that factory model in a way that's student-centric. It doesn't give each student what [he or she] really need[s]."

  • Those teachers who use technology on a daily basis in a blended classroom environment have the best success when it comes time for virtual school. The technology is already in place and more importantly the students know where to go to find information and what the expectations are. The students and educators who struggle the most are those who have to try and set up the technology at the last minute….it just doesn’t work.

education technology misconceptions

shared by Bruce Gorrill on 19 Jun 10 - Cached
  • by Michael Zimmer from the blog: The Pursuit of Technology Integration Happiness 1. Technology integration is THE ANSWER to improving test scores. 2. New teachers have a better understanding of how to integrate technology integration in schools. 3. Current teachers have no desire to learn how to integrate technology in their classrooms. 4. Integrating technology is too expensive for my school to afford. 5. I don’t have time to learn how to integrate technology in the classroom. 6. There can’t possibly be any technology to integrate in the subject matter that I teach. 7. I have to know EVERYTHING about the technology before I can integrate it. 8. My students have a better understanding of the technology, and that is embarrassing.

    Dwight Huber, a professor in the English department, has a practical approach to the issue of cell phones and classroom disruptions. "Students are generally engaged enough in my classes not to have the time to talk on a cell or text anyone," he said. "With active learning, an instructor doesn't need policies as such.
