7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoTechnology is changing the way in which we view learning spaces and the personal learning environment of our students because students surf the Internet, Tweet, use Facebook and come up with lots of learning material that a teacher may fail to find single handed for his learners. We as teachers at school need to allow our learners to explore the…[Read more]

True, Joan you have good research on learning spaces. It is true to echo some of the insights about learning spaces the learning spaces have to be altered to accomodate the technology. including sitting arrangment.
-
I also think that altering learning spaces can accomodate a large number students because while others come for experiments at school, others stay home on virtual space class may be on collaborative exercise
-
-
This gives a shift in paradigm from the traditional ‘teaching’ to more constructive ‘learning’ for instance, from simply recalling to discovery. Agree with you Joan

7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoI overly agree technology can break through classroom walls. Learners can do a lot beyond the classroom. They can join virtual classrooms, Universities etc.

7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoHi members I do agree that technology can break down classroom walls and create even much more knowledge than the teacher can give in class as well as ensuring collaboration among learners and their teacher, but we should not forget that it all goes along with a connection to a server which may not be easy for learners in the remote areas of the…[Read more]

7.4 Construction group 9 years, 5 months agoConstruction is still largely dictated by “teacher in classroom” scenario. With devices like tablets, all that may be necessary is a rooftop to guard against rain!
-
Emma,
This ok with me as well. Yes teacher based on whatever approaches teacher intended. My feel is that we insist on a kind architecture that will prevent not only the rain but dust, wind noise etc.-
I would consider that for the existing hardware but would advocate for virtue learning spaces the way to go. more so this wiuld involve parents more in learning. Simply because some parents dont want their childrento access Internetbecause of fear to adopt bad cultures. But if Principal informs all parents about the Virtual school learning…[Read more]

Yes! what ever happens inside there, an environment that is free from noise, wind, rain is highly recommended.
