I think there's a lot of value in the way the article approaches "why tech doesn't work as pedagogy." What I worry about is that there's a real danger of an either/or approach. Sometimes people need training, and we know that not all people can figure things out alone. Some need step-by-step instruction for technology that seems easy if you have certain aptitudes. It's all well and good to focus on the learning, but if you can't work the gizmo, you're not going to be facilitating much learning. This is aggravated when the tool is a communication channel, and you can't send the messages that need to be sent (e.g. Haiku and assignments, attendance, notes on grades, etc.)

"The iPad is not a PC. As obvious as that sounds, if the only computer you've ever used was mainly a box on a desk, or ran a desktop operating system with a physical keyboard attached, its only natural that the ways you attempt to use a new device will be dictated by the old paradigm. Instead of just sticking with such an approach, this book looks at the different ways that the PC and iPad have been designed to work, and then detail new ways that the iPad can be used for workflows not work.

Pausch and Jobs could have confined their presentations to small groups, relying on much more direct interaction with a few audience members. They could have embedded their messages in interactive computer software programs that asked learners numerous questions and provided constructive feedback on their responses. They could have phoned their lectures in, using the latest distance-learning technology. Fortunately, however, they did not, and our world and the world of today's health professions students is the richer for their choice to lecture.

  I'm willing to accept the argument that the lecture has a place in education. Lectures can be an effective and inspirational teaching tool.

Don't Give Up on the Lecture - Atlantic Mobile - 3 views

m.theatlantic.com/...281624

shared by Chris English on 24 Nov 13 - No Cached

According to the data, students exposed to lecture more than other classroom activities showed more significant learning gains than their peers. The authors were careful to point out that this data need not be proscriptive. One of the study’s faults is that there is no way to account for the teachers who gravitate more towards lecturing because they excel at it, and those who encourage group work because they are comfortable managing such dynamics.
- Chris English on 03 Dec 13
  
  Connecting the argument to this study is spurious, at best. I read the study. The researchers are much more cautious about the results of their study.
