Teachers Report: OER In; Textbooks Out -- THE Journal

More teachers said that technology has changed how they approach time management (93 percent) than how they approach instructional delivery (88 percent). It has also transformed how they handle parent communication. A solid 7 in 10 reported that they now use tech to do that. Those results came out of a survey of nearly 1,000 American teachers who were contacted in January and February 2016 by TES Global, a company with a teacher community and marketplace.
Lim Ker Yu's curator insight, March 14, 2016 4:35 AM

I agree with what the author wrote. For example, my younger brother's form teacher is communicating with my parents through an app called Class Dojo, where she can post pictures, reminders and comments of her pupils. Parents, students and teachers benefit from this, as the parents can know more about their child's progress in class, and the teacher can know more about the pupils he/she is teaching via communication with parents. As for the students, they get a small treat every time the "points" in Class Dojo reaches the teacher's expectation. Through this type of learning, students can learn well and concentrate in class to achieve the treat.

In the future, more teachers might use this method to instill enthusiasm in students' learning and teachers might be able to teach their students without any unnecessary interruptions from them.

However, students may just pretend to be attentive and hardworking in class just to get the "points" for the treat. After they get the treat, they might forget the things the teacher has taught them. Although this method is not entirely foolproof, it is still a good method for teachers to use.
