TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING

            Introduction to Unit 2



EDUC W200 Week 4
W200 is divided into three units…




 EDUC W200 Week 4
Unit 2 - Technology for Teaching and Learning

• We are moving away from asking “why” to asking
  “how”.
• Primary focus of Unit 2 is:
     • HOW do we (teachers) implement technology
       into classroom?
     • HOW do we (teachers) make the best use of the
       technologies we have access to?
     • HOW do we (teachers) evaluate the best use of
       the technologies?

 EDUC W200 Week 4
TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION


       Effectiveness, Efficiency, Enhancement



EDUC W200 Week 4
THE 3E’s

Is one criteria we use in W200

How to use the 3 E’s..
  • Define the learning objective,
  • Define the task,
  • Select a tool to support the task (use 3 e’s)




 EDUC W200 Week 4
WHAT ARE THE 3 E’s?

  1. EFFECTIVENESS
       Meet the learning goals successfully (Standards)
  1. EFFICIENCY
       Save time, effort, and cost (Resources)
       Should be coupled with effectiveness
  1. ENHANCEMENT
       Offer Engaging learning experience (Digital Natives)
       Enrich learning environments



 EDUC W200 Week 4
REVIEW CLASS PREP #4 YOUR RESPONSES

Think Pair And Share (3 Minutes)
•Group 1: Question #1 Heart Transplant
•Group 2: Question #2 Skype in the classroom
•Group 3: Question #3 PowerPoint Games
•Group 4: Question #4 Virtual Fieldtrips


- Can a tool have more than 1 E?
- Should a tool have all three Es?

 EDUC W200 Week 4
Instructional Perspective

•    Effectiveness is about “Does it accomplish learning
     outcomes?”
     – Ex1. Timeline Tool: Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in
       Washington
     – Ex2. 50 states
     – Ex3. Stock market game
     – Ex4. Inspiration;




    EDUC W200 Week 4
Instructional Perspective

•   Learning should be EFFICIENT
•   Overview:
       - Using technology to speed up the learning process
       - Using technology to quickly make educational
         materials
       - Enables more learning by eliminating laborious
         processes
       - Speed / Easiness / Cost / Resouce



    EDUC W200 Week 4
LEARNING SHOULD BE “EFFICIENT”!

•    Examples:
        - Thinkfinity:Games and Tools (Free online educational
          game)
        - Netvibes /Google Reader / Reddit / Stumbleupon
        - Diigo / Delicious/
        - Microsoft Office Products templates
        - Webspiration/Inspiration
        - http://quizlet.com/



    EDUC W200 Week 4
INSTRUCTIONAL PERSPECTIVE

•    Learning should be ENHANCING
•    Overview:
     - Using technology increases student motivation and
       engagement
     - Using technology makes the impossible (or difficult)
       possible
     - Creates exceptional learning experiences
     - Enriches learning environments



    EDUC W200 Week 4
LEARNING SHOULD BE “ENHANCED”!

•    Examples:
        o Live Mocha
        o ReachtheWorld
        o Aha! Math
        o Xpeditions
        o Google LitTrips

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. We are now on HOW do we help integrate technology….
  2. Enhancement: Transfer, Impact, Appeal (Motivation). Something you couldn’t do before without technology. What is EFFICIENCY? Less time, reduces extra effort – What does it mean to be INEFFECTIVE? Has no effect Effectiveness is the completeness and accuracy with which users achieve specified goals. It is determined by looking at whether the user ’s goals were met successfully and whether all work i s correct. It can sometimes be difficult to separate effectiveness from efficiency, but they are not the same. Efficiency is concerned primarily with how quickly a task can be completed, while effectiveness considers how well the work is done.
  3. Example: As students review the three different types of matter (gas, liquids, solids), they may need reinforcement of certain principles. Therefore, a tutorial where student answer certain questions based on these principles, and when answered, the computer supplies a review of that information with a short flash movie, explaining the principles, students may be more likely to remember this principle and thus impact the effectiveness of the instruction.
  4. THESE TWO WORDS GET MIXED UP FREQUENTLY SO LETS FOCUS ON THEM- HOW ARE THEY DIFFERENT??? Webspiration Science example: http://www.webspirationpro.com/examples – This helps student learning by providing a graphic organizer so that students can see their similarities and differences with visual illustration. http://quizlet.com/ http://www.learning.com/ahamath/usage/# See more tools to find 3E examples from https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Al1viVX2F2T2dHlEcHZ3VW9oNXZEUkdZcFAtTmZ5ZEE&authkey=CO-2rvcG&hl=en#gid=0 This is probably the most familiar use of technology in teaching. Probably what most of you remember your teachers doing. But it can speed up the teaching OR learning process. We’re focusing on learning in this lecture. Technology lets us do things faster Students may be better able to produce writing drafts and quickly edit them by using a word processor and saving their drafts. Once they review it for mistakes, they can bring up the draft and quickly edit it as opposed to re-writing the piece. Here are some examples of tools that can help increase the efficiency of learning. Math: Speed up calculations Redo statistics & quickly change input Make different graphs quickly or quickly manipulate data Researching Writing drafts Find these examples! Writing Process: Electronic outlining Concept mapping drafting, & revising Science: Recording measurements Getting access to data sets Quick analysis Social Studies: Internet research US census data ALL: Jeopardy Art: Graphic manipulation (quickly change media) Physical Ed: Track fitness SPED: Assistive technology
