How Technology Is Empowering The Learners - Edudemic

How Technology Is Empowering The Learners - Edudemic | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it
The impact technology has had within schools is limited but is empowering learners like never before.
Alfredo Corell's insight:

In the last 50 years advances in technology have brought about social shifts that change the way we interact, communicate, share information, and learn. The changes in technology have had far-reaching effects on every aspect of society, changing what we know, how we know it, how we make a living, and how we see the world and each other.

iPads in the classroom – A development of a taxonomy for the use of iPads in schools

The investigation shows that almost all objectives, teaching tasks and concepts of thecurriculum can be promoted with the aid of tablet computers. Nevertheless, a lot ofprerequisites in terms of hardware and software are required for a successful integration of tablets. In addition, there are some drawbacks, such as the lack of teacher training and slower text production.

Deborah Sarmir's comment, May 18, 9:45 AM
I agree, teacher training is a big component that must be in place in order for this initiative to be successful.

iPads are quickly becoming a popular and powerful educational tool for classrooms. Beyond the immediate benefit of engaging students, iPads can improve education efficiency and standards. However, many teachers are unsure of how to use them effectively. Coupled with concerns over the costs involved, iPad implementation in schools is seen as an unnecessary and expensive risk.

iCollaborate: making the most of collaborative learning in an iPad classroom? | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

I started my teaching career at an international school in Egypt. This school had a very structured curriculum and used standardized testing very often. I learned a lot from working there, I have to admit. But one thing I found rather displeasing about the curriculum was that it only encouraged and facilitated individual learning. There weren’t many opportunities for group work or collaborative learning.

When is a MOOC not a MOOC? - Professors and universities debating - Enterprises releasing iPad Apps | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

By Vance Stevens:


I have to admit I would not be drawn to a blog post entitled so vacuously as, "what MOOC means to me" (so I thought up something catchy and made the real purpose of this post its subtitle). However, it's early days for working out what MOOC means for anyone. People have different ideas about what MOOC means, period. Obviously, the most relevant meaning is the one that reaches any one of us personally. MOOC means a lot to me, I'm going to try to pin down that meaning here, and maybe this will help you get your own grip on what MOOC might mean to you.

Free Technology for Teachers: Animation Desk - Create Short, Animated Videos (by @rmbyrne)

Free Technology for Teachers: Animation Desk - Create Short, Animated Videos (by @rmbyrne) | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

Animation Desk is an iPad app (free and premium versions available) for creating short, animated videos. The app allows you to create drawings using just your finger on your iPad's screen. In the free version of the app (the version that I tried) you can create up to 50 scenes in each of your projects. In each scene you can include as little or as much as you want to draw on the canvas. There are a few different brush and pencil effects that you can use in your drawings. The opacity of the colors you choose can be altered too. When you have completed drawing all of your scenes hit the play button to watch your animation unfold. If you're happy with your animation you can export it to YouTube. If you don't like an aspect of your animation, you can go back and edit one scene or all of the scenes.
