  • Tools with adaptive content are all about two things: looking at a student's specific answer and then responding with unique hints, feedback and resources on a specific topic.
  • Adaptive assessments change and respond based on whether students answer questions correctly or incorrectly.
  • Tools with adaptive sequences are the most complex of the three. They often make use of “algorithms” and “predictive analytics” that can continuously collect data and use it to change what a student sees.

  • when used effectively and with specific goals in mind, iPads can have a positive impact on education
  • shouldn't be looked at as a computer, because it isn't...it is more than that.

how to education system change technology

shared by Phil Taylor on 10 May 12 - No Cached
  • Given the enormous impact that technology has had on nearly every other aspect of our society, how can that be?
  • Today our collective vision for education is broader, our nation is more complex and diverse, and our technical capabilities are more powerful. But we continue to assume the factory-model classroom and its rigid bell schedules, credit requirements, age-based grade levels, and physical specifications when we talk about school reform.
  • our focus should primarily be to design new classroom models that take advantage of what these tools can do.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • understanding what it is we want students to be able to do, the measures of success, the resources we have to work with, and our own sense of possibility.
  • Different schools may take different approaches to combining these components
  • The Information Age has facilitated a reinvention of nearly every industry except for education. It's time to unhinge ourselves from many of the assumptions that undergird how we deliver instruction and begin to design new models that are better able to leverage talent, time, and technology to best meet the unique needs of each student

  • It does take time to build up something like this, but it can grow organically just by registering on a few sites and then putting in 5 or 10 mins whenever you have time. In the long run, that’s far more time economical than going to a conference and certainly much cheaper, and best of all the network you develop is one that is absolutely specific to your own needs, so what could be better.

  • for the most part, schools have incorporated these 21st century instructional techniques and tools as add-ons to the teacher-centric 19th century classroom structure, in which the majority of the curriculum is pulled from a textbook, and, despite best intentions, most students learn the same thing in the same way at the same time.
  • what exactly is personalized learning? And why is technology so central to its outcomes?
  • personalized learning as an instructional approach that encompasses both differentiation and individualization, but is also flexible in content or theme to match the specific interests and prior experiences of learners
