Innovative Uses of Technology
Defining Innovative Uses of Technology
New methods
Updating and revising technology that we already have.
Meeting the needs of our users in a new, creative way
Advantages and Limitations of the Innovative Uses of Technology
Staying current with the needs of our students generation (+)
higher-order thinking skills (+)
better preparedness for the workforce (+)
too much to keep up with and not enough time (-)
not everyone having access to technology devices (-)
How it differs from the traditional ways of teaching and learning
21st century goals
get rid of lecture style teaching and create a student-cetnered envionment
critical thinking and problem solving on projects instead of memorization
project-based learning instead of "drill and kill" mentality
working together, not independently
we are lifelong learners (inside and OUTSIDE of school)
How it might hinder or enhance teaching and learning for teachers, students, and parents
increased engagement for students by staying up-to-date(+)
parents and teachers might not be familiar with how to work the new technology (-)
provide opportunities for collaboration amongst students from different classes/schools (+)
promote higher-level thinking and problem-solving skills (+)
trying to stay so current and up-to-date might stress some teachers out (-)
Continuing Education
training for teachers is a MUST to keep up with the innovative uses of technology
colleges need to start adding in more technology instruction for educational programs
professional development should be more interactive instead of sit-down and listen
allow for collaboration amongst colleagues
bring in guest speakers in-person and via a webinar
Infrastructure: Access and Enable
In order to stay innovative, everyone needs access
someone needs to provide funding for schools that don't have 1:1 devices
our internet connections and servers must be readily equipped to handle the innovative technology
