The Persistent Appeal of Technology in Learning

The Persistent Appeal of Technology in Learning | Using Educational Technology for Adult ELT | Scoop.it

The technology they use in their personal lives just makes sense for use in their learning as well. If a student badly wanted a new tablet or app for his or her own personal use but wanted nothing to do with it for any kind of learning whatsoever, we may need to look at the disconnect.

But there are other reasons why education consistently turns to technology

Huge advocate of Life Long Learning and the use of personal technology breaks down the barrier between the 'classroom' and the workplace.

Helen Teague's comment, June 1, 9:13 AM
I like the emphasis on connections---making connections among curricular disciplines and technology uses.

Ana Sclerandi's curator insight, May 31, 3:08 PM

Nik Peachey, freelance technology consultant, teacher trainer, writer and course designer, specialist in educational technology, ELT and ICT, explains how he got into educational technology, why foreign language learners need to be digital literate in the 21st century; why teachers should be updated, prepared and willing to rethink their educational practices and homework assignments; and what schools should first invest on when bringing technology to their classrooms.

Ana Sclerandi's comment, May 31, 3:09 PM

ESLRaj's curator insight, May 7, 7:27 AM

When you use more than one adjective in a sentence, they need to follow the order of this acronym: OSACOMP. It sounds like a computer algorithm, and feels just as frustrating. You can’t just say, “I bought a new, beautiful, leather, big black work bag.” The Opinion needs to come first. Then Size, followed by Age, Color, and Origin. Finally, Material and Purpose. So, “I bought a beautiful, big, new, black leather work bag.” Because that makes all the difference.
