Gelernter use multimedia as an example, the function of multimedia is to combine word, sound and picture together into a video. Students are able to watch video instead of read book. It makes book become even boring that students are not willing to read books. Second issue is speaking skills. Gelernter uses Hypermedia as the example.
Evaluate the effectiveness of business information and its communication as key contributors to the success of an organisation, using examples Llantarnam School Verbal Verbal is one of the key factor of business information as it can make communication a lot easier and quicker to understand and there will also be a less chance of misunderstanding a set of instruction than other type of communications. Some of the communication used in schools are interview, telephone conversations. Llantarnam School uses verbal communication in many occasions like assembly where teachers speaks to the students delivering important messages by face to face conversations. I personally think this is the best way to communicate but there are many problems of this communication like language barrier where I myself sometime find it difficult to understand what teachers are saying as English is not my primary language, the person who you want to talk to might not be present. Written communication This communication is also used very often in Llantarnam School.
William Skidmore EDU 225 April 21, 2013 Kathleen Sherbon The Integrating of instructional technology into the classroom. While the march of technology steams on it I not as easy as plugging in a computer to improve the academic ability of students, there is a lot of thought that must go into the integration of technology, and not just a mad grab for the internet. While technology is a great wielder of information and communication it is also a trap for procrastination. One can not look at the world of technology as a toy, for doing so limits even the best students and dooms the weakest. By accepting and even embracing technology allows teachers to grow the minds of children.
This cartoon also utilizes the children to count and remember things in interact with it. In today’s society there are both educational cartoons and educational programs that are now widely available on television for children. These differ from other programs on television today because there are strict guidelines for learning. While there are many different ways for children to learn and the television can become another resourceful tool for everyone to utilize. Some parents do not realize that when they are allowing their children to sit down and watch television for hours on end that there could be a show that is educational and will help to fill the child’s mind with knowledge and not pollution.
Not only is this beneficial to the public, private, and charter school system, but for the homeschooling children as well as children with learning disabilities. The I industry and it’s portability has paved the way to not only higher rate of learning and success, but higher test scores, grades and an educational
This book poses tough questions that should be addressed to ensure that children are protected and correctly guided while using a computer. Dr. Healy expresses concern that too little time has been spent studying the effects of educational technology, which consequently, can cause greater harm than good. Dr. Healy addresses the misconception that computers and educational software is the "key to successful student achievement". After countless hours in classrooms observing and talking to teachers and students, Dr. Healy suggests that perhaps many parents and educators "want to believe that technology is the `magic bullet' that will take care of problems in our education system that previously failed to be addressed" (p. 18). Consequently, she believes too much emphasis is placed on technology, taking away from the development of basic reading, math and problem solving skills.
Today, children view school as a “place of danger”, and their main focus is to avoid danger as much as possible (Holt 360). This danger comes in the form of mistakes on tests, quizzes, and homework assignments in which the children earn grades based on what they are able to remember at that time, instead of making a long-term connection between the educational content and the children’s own distinct method of learning. Teachers, despite their best intentions, diminish the children’s will to read when they conform to these “conventional” methods of teaching. These methods have made a game, between the teachers and students, out of learning to read; a game in which the students are to guess what the teachers want to hear and to agree with the conclusions the teachers draw. This gives children the impression that reading is dangerous, because they don’t want to make mistakes and lose the game.
We do not call this behavior challenging because it summons you to a duel or battle but because it is threatening, provocative, and stimulating, all at the same time. Another website was csefel.vanderbuilt.edu/documents/reading_cues.org, and it was just more less the understanding of why challenging behaviors happens with young children. And the last website that I went to was csefel.vanderbilt.edu/resources/family.htm. This website was more for the families to read and get more of a understand and it gave some resources. If I was to have a challenging child in my class then I would was to involve the parents or caregivers and let them be on the same page as I am.
However, these strategies draw more attention to the students’ disability, and these accommodations can be expensive to implement. Hearing impaired students also cannot hear the teachers or their peers in the classroom, which impedes on their ability to participate in the class. Educators are beginning to explore online settings as an effective strategy for teaching hearing impaired students. Online education is a useful tool for the education of hearing impaired students, but it should not be the sole solution. It is most effective when blended into a traditional classroom setting.
The whole purpose behind classes at college or even in some high schools is for the student to write their own notes based on the teacher's lecture or lesson. This is a difficult skill and so the distractions should be kept to the minimal. When students are given only paper and pen the worse they can do is doodle. However, a laptop does not just have Microsoft Word or Word-pad, it has games and the Internet on it, (which would be very tempting not to surf the web) it would take a restrained teenager not to be lured during a boring lesson (I know I would). Teachers and professors have little control over what their students are doing on their laptops, thus it is a distraction for them too, as stated also by Elena Choy about the upraised laptop lids and how the teacher wouldn’t have any eye contact with them.
