EDLD 5301: Week 3 Action Research Plan

I am extremely interested in following your research on this subject. Our school district is involved with the One-to-One Technology Grant. Our 7th Grade students will be given a Netbook Computer to use at school and at home next year. This has been a huge topic on our campus because we have a year to figure out how we can begin to incorporate technology into the classroom. Some of the subjects have begun the process of using technology but some are trying to develop a plan. My Site Supervisor wants me to work with our Math Department and help them develop a plan for implementing technology. I'm going to be visiting quite often to see what you are discovering.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering what technology the teachers are interested in and trained to implement technology in the classroom? I am also wondering if the students have access to computers or ipads. Also, if the students all have access to the computers or ipads who is going to find the sites and apps to correlate with the TEKS?
ReplyDeleteSome things to consider:
ReplyDelete1. Will teachers have to schedule computer labs?
2. Mobile labs?
3. Smart phone use (for those who have them)?
We spent about two years planning, collaborating and training for the implementation of our districts 1 to 1 laptop per student integration. It went fairly well and it helped that the teachers were able to contribute to our laptop policies as well as share those programs they would like to learn first in order to be able to function within an all digital environment. I guess the thing that helped us the most was to start off slowly. Train your teachers on the most important programs they need to get by (email, digital grading program, etc.) then to continue with specialized training in their subject area. Unfortunately, the core classes at my school have or currently are receiving training for their subject ares to best utilize technology and many of us mere "electives" are having to wait. I've been proactive with looking at everything that is out there and there are so many possible websites you could use to teach Spanish, it is a bit daunting. Your plan is clear, concise, includes your stakeholders and will yield interesting data once it has been collected!
