Get Ready with these Technology Tools! How many of them do you know? How well do you know it/them? How many of them do you use? How many of them would you like to use? Which tool is your favourite? Why? I just came across this awesome poster in a tweet by iPadWells and wanted you to have a look as well and probably use it in your class. The content of this poster is more food for thought. Below is a brief analysis of the three main digital practices or themes highlighted in this poster:
1- Flipped Learning - In flipped learning model, teachers create video content and animated illustrations and share them with students through some video hosting platforms like for instance YouTube, Vimeo, class blog or wiki..etc. Flipped learning allows students to learn at their own pace and also supports individualized learning. Check this page for more on Flipped learning. 2- Team work - Collaborative group work is an important ingredient of learning and in fact the social aspect of learning comes from it being collaboratively negotiated, constructed, and communicated. With the advance of web technologies or what Tim Oreilly called the social web, students can now engage and enrich their learning experiences with a wider audience. Platforms like blogs, forums, wikis etc. are conductive to this kind of collaborative social learning. And with the widespread of smart phones and mobile gadgets, students can access these social learning platforms using a wide variety of apps, any time, anywhere they want. 3- Search Literacy - Teachers are no longer the single authoritative source of knowledge, all the information now is at the finger tips of students and is only a click away from them. However, this abundance of information creates what Rheingold called information crap (read his book" Net Smart: How to Thrive Online" for more on this topic ). To be able to sift through the online tsunami of content students need to develop effective search skills and also learn how to evaluate, assess and decipher the crap from the cream. So what do you think? Does this analysis hit the point or is the content of the poster different from what I thought it is? Share with us in the comment form below.
