What Teachers Really Think About Game Based Learning

What Teachers Really Think About Game Based Learning | The 21st Century | Scoop.it

WeAreTeachers, an educational resource website, have released the results of a survey of 309 K–12 classroom teachers from public, private and religious schools across the country about their views on game based learning. We thought the results were very interesting, especially the statement ’81% of teachers feel students are more engaged when they are playing games’.

Why Eye Contact Still Matters In The Age of Email

Why Eye Contact Still Matters In The Age of Email | The 21st Century | Scoop.it
Eye contact versus a 140-character tweet. Are your kids still learning proper communication skills, or has social media stunted that development?
Lucy Wareham's curator insight, March 7, 2:01 AM

This article reminds us that within Technology learning, students spend many hours connected to online communication. As teachers of technology we also need to teach the skills of face to face communication. Students may learn these skills by presenting their ideas to their cohort, ensuring they use all methods of communication. This includes body language, tone of voice and visual presentation of themselves. This is a life skill they can use in later life to present their own technology ideas to the world.
