Implementation of technology integration in my colleagues 1.6.4

My colleagues at work at first seemed not be in position take this whole integration of ICT thing very seriously. The survey, however, has proved me wrong. I see that the interest is there much as few are willing to part with a cost to gain this benefit. I strongly believe that now that we have a larger number able to operate a computer, almost have able to access the internet and easily search for information online and all willing to learn more about ICT; I believe they are ready to pursue! I will get to group them up in an effective way to ensure that the ones who know more are able to make the ones who know less be at the same level with them. As we get along we may all be at the same level probably some day. You-tube video and other tutorials are going to be very instrumental in meeting our goals and so have to be downloaded and made accessible to the staff. We also now have to find a way of making the computer laboratory administration team design a convenient schedule for us. The computer laboratory seems to have all the resources we need.
I have personally seen myself grow from the same no idea state to having reasonably commendable knowledge in ICT integration. With support from those who have had more experience I have developed this far. Videos have been a very effective tool for me so has curating following some resourceful people online etc. I know they can make it!

Bring Your Own Device 7.5.4

I was not so familiar with BYOD until after this lesson. It was something that I associated with the corporate world (and not the classroom) - with big organisations allowing their employees to bring their own devices to work as a measure of motivating them with the feeling of greater contribution to the company. BYOD assumes many models in classroom learning which generally allow learners to bring their own devices to school. The devices brought may or may not be dictated upon by the school but, ideally, must be those that support the teaching and learning process. Looking at BYOD now in the classroom context,it is to me more of a challenge than an idea to implement. I see it as something that is long over due and I consider myself little bit behind schedule with a lot to get done. I have particularly taken interest in the cell phone as a device I feel would bring more success in meeting teaching and learning objectives in my classroom. Why you may ask? Well, it is a device that I ...

Insight into my project work 6.2.4

In an attempt to state the curriculum objectives of the project with specific 21st Century skills and higher-order skills, I have written down the following: Objectives: Identify aquatic organisms in a water sample. (curriculum) Use sampling and counting techniques to estimate population size. (curriculum) Collaborate in groups to agree, with substantial reasoning, on the most appropriate sampling method to apply for each of the different water samples to be taken.(21st Century skill) Critically examine data on numbers of micro-organisms in the different samples and, considering other environmental factors observed, draw a conclusion about the patterns. (21st Century skill) Create a blog with content compiled by all learners, containing details of the story of the entire project, the observations made and the conclusions/hypothesis deduced. (higher order thinking) Together influence the community to implement workable solutions which either guarantee the safe use of drink...

WebQuests -- A reflection 6.3.4

WebQuests are an exciting and valuable teaching tool. A well-planned WebQuest has guidance for students, a creative end project with room for flexibility, and links that help answer questions and positively add to the project. A strong WebQuest is designed for students to work independently, allowing the teacher to be a facilitator in students' learning rather than the sole dispenser of knowledge. WebQuests also have the the adaptive dimension, the ability to make adjustments in educational programs to accommodate students' diverse learning needs. They are the therefore a wonderful way of capturing students' imagination and allowing them to explore in a guided, meaningful manner. Communication, group work, problem solving, and critical and creative thinking skills are becoming far more important in today's world than having students memorize predetermined content. This is an emphasis of the 21st century skills which are designed to effectively integrate our ...
