[PDF] Teacher vs Technology

[PDF] Teacher vs Technology | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it
One of the great deceptions of the 'digital age' is the idea that digital t chnologies lessen the need for hard work and generally improve people's working lives. Technology marketing will often promote the idea that new and exciting things simply get 'done' through digital technologies without the need for work at all. At best most people tend not to think about the work and labour involved in their use of digital technology. Yet the continued expansion of digital technology is intrinsically ent win ed with work.
 
The ongoing digitisation of society clearly involves substantial amounts of mental and manual labour, alongside significant shifts in the coordination and distribution of work. So what implications might these trends have in the world of education? While usually judged solely in terms of learning and pedagogy, education technology is a site where much education work is now carried out. In particular, the working lives of teachers are increasingly predicated around the use of technology. For example. school management systems such as Compass are used to organise and manage the day-to-day business of teaching, from distributing resources to monitoring performance. Alongside these institutional systems is the everyday use of office software such as email, Word, PowerPoint, Excel and electronic calendars. Lesson planning and delivery are bolstered by the use of Google, YouTube and the thousands of school-related apps available through iTunes and Google Play. Facebook and Twitter are valuable sources of professional support and development; sites such as Linkedln are important forums for career development.

Chatbots for Learning

Chatbots for Learning | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it
Chatbots can operate according to a set of predefined rules or, using machine learning, work based on various degrees of artificial intelligence. They can be accessed through chat tools — such as Facebook Messenger — or other types of messaging apps. Basically, a chatbot interacts with the user in the same way a live person would — through conversation. Theoretically, the bot gets smarter as it interacts with more people and learns new things, which opens up some fascinating instructional avenues to explore.

The learning applications for chatbot technology on desktop or mobile learning may be in the early stages, but the possibilities could be transformative. Having an available, accessible subject-matter expert dramatically changes several aspects of what experts in learning and performance do, such as:

When it comes to cardboard, the possibilities are endless. At least that’s what elementary and middle school students were trying to prove on Saturday. The children were cutting, taping and building with the paper recyclable in the cafeteria of Wyoming Seminary Lower School as they took part in the Global Cardboard Challenge Saturday.
