[elearning] Triple-Screening and one:many

[Jolly, Michael D]

Too true Roland. I am referring to the ‘traditional’ practice adopted in most schools. I use mobiles in ICT classes and also in Maths classes.
There are probably other uses too but I do not teach those subjects.
Also we have a policy of 1 BYOD per student, when they get a new tablet or whatever, we remove the current device from the network and then allow the new one. The cells are never on our network (not an acceptable device).

When you say "of course", it implies that mobile devices are tolerated but not to be engaged with or used in the classroom. It looks very tidy and formal but does make schools increasingly look archaic and irrelevant as we prepare them to be authentic 21C digital citizens. There is a good reason why they call these disruptive technologies and for us to consider whose needs we are really catering for (or how we can best accommodate these in schools)

Oddly enough, whilst studying at Uni recently, all my devices were connected. I don’t think I consumed any more bandwidth or worked any differently than how I use these at home. For me, that was the real world where things just plain worked.

Who are we fooling?

Not in our school. We allow 1 device per child – managed by the tech via access to the wifi net.
And cells are silent and unseen of course (of course)!

Have we moved beyond 1:1 and are now one:many?

A creative space where many personal learning devices, connect and network each student to a local community of supportive educators.

I notice that this is where our VCE kids are heading, where many of our staff are already at.

Interested in your thoughts.
