YOU?
Kayla Lengerich and Amanda Shomon
Types of Technology
Computers and related devices Overheads Televisions VCR/DVD Digital cameras Video cameras
Hakan Turkman, “What Technology Plays a Supporting Role in Learning Cycle Approach for Science Education”
Technology Use
“16% of teachers reported using technology almost every day and 28% reported using it several times a week”
-According to Hakan Turkman in a 2006 article
How can we make this happen?
Using Technology Successfully in the
Classroom
Teachers must:•Feel comfortable•Receive proper training•Be willing to be a learner
Hakan Turkman, “What Technology Plays a Supporting Role in Learning Cycle Approach for Science Education”
•Teachers should not rely on technology•Technology should be viewed as a tool•Teachers must know their role
Creating a Technology-Based Curriculum
Hakan Turkman, “What Technology Plays a Supporting Role in Learning Cycle Approach for Science Education”
Who is using technology?•Studies show that males use technology,
especially computers, more often than females•Males focus on programming and gaming•Females focus on word processing software
Hall, Georgia. "Teens and technology: Preparing for the future."
What does this mean?
Encourage use of technology for a variety of purposes
Encourage use of technology outside of the classroom
Try not to get too excited…
But wait!
Technology: The Perfect Solution?
•Some activities are better done without technology•“Learning from computers vs. learning with computers”
Turkman, Hakan. "What Technology Plays Supporting Role in Learning Cycle Approach for Science Education."
The Bottom Line“Understanding how to use computers and other technology for learning, productivity, and performance has become as fundamental to a person’s ability to navigate through school and career as traditional skills like reading, writing, and arithmetic”-Georgia Hall
