Hopefully it will make for more interaction between the students and teachers. They can get a quick response to queries that may have.

I’m not sure!!!

The main implications of using mobile technology and all the wonderful things that have shown to us today is the lack of computer facilities in the A&D department. I don’t even have access to an IWB. I really think some of this stuff is the way forward and would love to start using it. I hope the college is supportive in this new technology and enables us to have access to some of these sites which may cost money.

If we don’t have a VLE how can it be dead?

 

As our learners in art & design have no access to computers  – A VLE would be as useful as an e-portfolio

 

e-potfolios are the way forward for BTEC and other evidence portfolio based qualifications

 

Task 3

If only I could understand the task

 

?

 

Elearning

The application of this technology is unlimited in potential...the use
of mobile phone technology in learning zones is the future. The
biggest challenge to learning is the 'Chinese Wall' syndrome, whereby
learners drop their dialogue with learning as soon as the seminar in
class is over. This new approach to learning means interesting,
challenging and useful projects can be set by a teacher, and students
can zone in and engage in the kind of environment they feel
comfortable in, when not at school.

What implications does this have for the building of eportfolios or peer support?

Is the vle dead?

 

Some fine and wonderful innovations in the way that teaching and learning can be accomplished.

What idiots we have been – active learning methods are no longer! Hahaha! Sack the teachers – fools!

Sit on our fat ***** and live in the virtual world! Human contact is no more! Hahahahahahahaha!

The e-portfolio is a great idea and makes the work produced a lot neater and professional than the old version of pen to paper, the students will need certain training as most students do not understand how to send emails etc.

 

P.S. what is a blog??????

E Portfolios

It could open up many avenues that would encourage increased participation of the client group and give them more ownership. Would allow them to have better access to assessors and also help with the timely submission of evidence in line with agreed timescales.

Course

The ability to capture and send meaningful / useful video evidence between the Candidate and Assessor is, I believe, a really valuable method of evidence collection. The content of the videos must, however, be given serious thought. The pictures / videos should contain ‘participation’ – e.g. the candidate actually performing some required task rather than just providing a picture / video of the task to be done.

As an assessor, I think the use of mobile phones, for teaching, has great possibilities, but I think companies that I deal with, will need re- educating regarding the use of personal mobile phones in the workplace.

Molenet Implications

I think this approach as an exploration of the dynamic and pertinent aspect of technological progress is an excellent method of involving the learners by bridging the gap between what they do in lessons and outside of their learning time. The term “supplementary” sums it up, as I don’t think it should be viewed as an alternative to the VLE; however, it will most certainly facilitate the kind of things that the VLE supports, and hopefully can be incorporated into what is already happening there. There is definitely a lot of scope, but it all depends on the way in which learners think it can be used (or misused!).

Vle takes some navigating around, however anything to encourage students to take a more active role, in what is after all their own education and training, would be a benefit.

learning with mobile and web

The range of technologies being discussed could be used by learners to collect evidence, capture 'learning moments' and thoughts for collation in a reflective learning journal for further, deeper reflection. The 'bricollage' of evidence is not only makes the learing personal but helps learners and tteachers understand progress within a well designed series of activities.

Another benefit is that such approaches can help learners develop a 'voice'.

some activities for using mobiles

Social science exercise

On multicultural issues
Senario, Sending student on a field trip in their own city to collect images, video, interviews, make notes, historical data and upload to a blog for further analysis, discussion, feedback and maybe in the future, developing a Wiki or google doc of the experience in order to combine the best of the resources to tell a story.

Including refection and evaluation of the process, possibility peer assessment.


Best
David, Hendrik, Rosemary

I would get students wanting feedback on an issue concerning their teaching practice to video themselves teaching then ask for peer review / feedback using range of media, e.g. Text, video, e-mail. Students can then reflect on peer feedback.

feedback

Advantages - suits any learning style, encourages students to contribute
as they can do this in most comfortable way.

Gives ability to work anywhere - example, phonecast could be completed on
the bus on way to class. Technology allows student to fit learning around
their life.

ideas for using mobile a.v. Technolgies

Field exercises, e.g fashion retail students go to investigate and
evaluate retail strategies of shops and stores.

Or geography and geology students on field trips.

Ideas for texting

* Use texting for brainstorm sessions in class with large groups.
* History game on location. Students doing tasks on location and reporting back task output to headquarters. See Frequency 1550: http://freq1550.waag.org/
* Receiving feedback during lectures.

Our Idea

Students often find it difficult to reflect on learning, partiularly
if reflection is postponed until the end of the unit. Our idea is to
ask students to text or Tweet short bursts of reflection after each
taught session. Reflection can be shared with the whole group but can
remain anonymous if need be. At the end if the unit short burst
reflections can be collated to allow a student to reflect holisticly
on the whole unit.

Phew!

Learning activity using texting

Ask students to identify and photograph or video 3 examples of architecture from a specified period using their mobile phones.

They should also provide a comment in 160 character text message per example justifying why this is a good example of the chosen architectural example.

All contributions will be posted to a central blog allowing students to peer review, comment and rate each contribution.

The best 3 examples chosen by the students could then form a platform for further discussion in a seminar or lecture.

Text activity

Scenario:

Medical students complete "signup" sessions in wards and clinics within
the hospital. These are voluntary sessions and students may complete any
number of them.

The plan is to allow the students to text in their feedback to a central
point - this could include learning points, rating and any other relevant
info. The use of text message will force the student to be concise and to
the point.

During traditional tutorial sessions, the amalgamated feedback is used for
discusion and further exploratory learning. This should stimulate
higher-level thinking amongst the students, rather than simply treating
the signups as an information gathering exercise.

Additionally, the feedback can be used for quality audit purposes to
ensure constant improvement and review.

Text learning activity

 

Evaluating Information using the PROMPT mnemonic

 

Activity:  Look at a piece of information and apply the PROMPT criteria to it. Text which criteria the piece of information meets. Are there any missing?

 

Here are the criteria:

P    Presentation

R    Relevance

O   Objectivity

M   Method

P    Provenance

T   Timeliness

task 3 thoughts

Students can use mobile to send reflections, gather evidence using multimedia
capabilities of their mobile phones, communicate via txt or voice with peers &
tutors --- Can be useful for students doing practical courses, e.g. Nursing,
Engineering, Sciences, which require students to reach pre-determined
competencies.

Ideas for mobile phone use

I think the principle of use should be what value does it add - so instantaneous feedback or reflection that is concise.

I therefore would use it for discussion around articles, news bites, e-articles etc in a learning environment that promotes share learning, discussion and perhaps enquiry based learning.  I am not sure that this could be used much for my subject area as much of what I teach is technical and requires the application of rules, principles and formats to produce numbers etc

However, I can see that I could use it for discussion around the numbers in a tutorial setting or seminar - I could also use it for feedback after a lecture etc

However, I would be concerned about the quality of the reflection etc given the word constraint - although this depends on context.

FEEDBACK

Use the Jack Dee method of gathering txts during a lecture or induction and allow time to cherypick and stimulate feedback and urther input after the lecture ends.

Use for more comprehensive approach to teaching languages, particulalry in grammatical structures

Learning activity that requires texting

Introduce a topic, ask open questions and invite students to respond
using SMS text. Would produce deeper responses than multiple choice
and could produce further discussion.
