Technology does not necessarily improve education. Take a simple innovation like the pencil: One can use it to write a superlative essay, to drum away the time, or to poke out someone’s eye.

How technology and the internet are changing the way we get and use information.

Research Technology can enhance both what
and how children learn when used in conjunction with: (1) active engagement, (2) participation in groups, (3) frequent interaction and feedback, and (4) connections to real-world contexts. Roschelle, J.M., Pea, R.D., Hoadley, C.M.,
Gordin, D.N., and Means, B.M. (2000). Changing how and what children learn in school with computer-based technologies. The Future of Children, 10:2, 76-101.
What is a Participative Learning System? An environment where the
learner has: Choice and say The ability to actively add
input/information to the activity (the learner adds value)
Ownership in the learning activities The ability to show that they know
the material in diverse ways The ability to provide feedback to
the teacher, others, and themselves

Forward Thinking Lesson analysis on a wiki Tagcrowd Ask students when they are ready for
the assessment Learning experience – learning takes
place through the active behavior of the student; it is what he does that he learns, not what the teacher does. R. Tyler (1949)
Philosophy of Edu. – R. Tyler (1949) Adjust to society – accept social order or
improve the society in which he lives? This is a school issue!
Forward Thinking
Learning as a member of a small learning team is much more need-satisfying, especially to the needs of power and belonging , than learning individually. – Glasser (1990)

Principles of Good Instruction Well managed learning
environment Clear expectations Rich well-organized physical setting
for accessibility Prior knowledge and motivation Appropriate learning and
assessment strategies Provide for opportunities for diverse
talents and ways of learning
Principles of Good Instruction Encourage active learner
participation all the way through Develop reciprocity and
cooperation among learners Monitor progress Discussion and questioning
techniques to improve interactions
Provide prompt feedback Encourage learner self regulation
and self monitoring
What does this all mean? Are we still teaching the same way we
did in 1975? (not that it’s bad, the students have changed and so has our culture)
Are we growing as individuals? Are we giving learners choices? Are we accepting and giving
feedback? Are we creating ownership? Are we respecting the diverse talents
of our students? - Choice
Research Using computers to teach low order
thinking skills, such as drill and practice, had a negative impact on academic achievement, while using computers to solve simulations saw students’ math scores increase. Wenglinsky, H. (1998). Does it
compute? The relationship between educational technology and student achievement in mathematics. Princeton, NJ.: ETS Policy Information Center.
Research
Supporting a diversity of learning styles recognizes that students think and learn in many different ways and offers opportunities for learners of all ability levels to excel. Gardner, H. (1985). Frames of
mind: the theory of multiple intelligences. New York: Basic Books.
Research
Representing similarities and differences in graphic or symbolic form enhances students’ understanding of and ability to use knowledge. Marzano, Robert J., Pickering, Debra
J., Pollock, Jane E., (2001) Classroom instruction that works: research-based strategies for increasing student achievement.
Research Higher student achievement gains
were found in classrooms using technology in conjunction with inquiry-based teaching that emphasized collaborative learning methods, critical thinking, and problem solving skills. Perez-Prado, A., Thirunarayanan, M.
(2002). A qualitative comparison of online and classroom-based sections of a course: Exploring student perspectives. Education Media International, 39(2), 195-202.
