6.4.4 The WQ challenge phase

I have kind of dragged in this phase; not getting the idea at first but as always, I have not given up. I need to do more reading, consultation and more practice - even when I am done with this section of the course/lesson. Coming up  with a clear introduction and task that captivates learners from the word go seems to be much more challenging that I imagined it would be. Despite the fact that I have put in a lot to come up with a world class WQ (that is webquest), the picture I envisaged doesn't seem to be coming. I push on and surely hope that I will be in position to see this section added to the list of those I have comprehended and am becoming more proficient in. Watch this space for more updates!!!!!

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 ...
