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]

Yes! this is too ambitious for African settings like in Uganda, we just have to be patient, but this the ideal constructive learning spaces to meet the ever changing need of technology development.

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 agoWith technology, we break the walls in a virtual sense. Owing to the costly nature of putting up new structures for learning spaces, utilising the old ones and just integrate would be good enough.
Secondly, putting up new structures is a long term achievement there fore time consuming. So retaining old structures and redesigning classroom…[Read more]-
Amiana i agree with you ,its easy to redesign our old classrooms and cost effective than reconstructing our walls , the fact that technology tools are becoming cheap and accessible than raising funds to construct building which is a long time investment
-
I totally agree with you when you say that owing to the costly nature of putting up new structures for learning spaces, utilizing the old ones and just integrate would be good enough. Because technology grows every day and a lot become obsolete once time passes by yet new innovations in technology do not wait.

Well Stephen…….. Do you find any advantages in creating a learning space that is flexible and at the same time allows flexibility? Leave for the anticipated challenges……
-
Meant space enough to accommodate multiple activities.

-
Yes Mr. Otikori, given adequate commitment to integrating ICT, dont you think that forexample audio chats arouse interest in learning, and build up cognitive skills, emotionally goodlearners?
-
Right,
My stand point here is the aspect of attitudinal change in our traditional teachers being a challenge.
-
-
Well, such anticipated challenges should fiercely be remedified to open acess to new ways of getting things done in the class room, the modern way.

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.
