7.3 3 – new things and old ways – will old tactics work with mobile technologies? 9 years, 5 months agoBulamba ans Martin group C. Hello members these are some of our exploitation of ( new things and old way)
The introduction of subsidiary ICT in secondary schools is a initiative by the Uganda government but its not smoothly moving because of the limited facilities like computers, whiteboard, rooms and etc. We believe that most schools still use…[Read more]

7.3 1 – old things and old ways – dedicated technology venues 9 years, 5 months agoHi members to me, I do believe that we are looking at old things in old ways in relation to the use of technology. This then mean that old things in old ways imply doing what we have been doing many years ago in the same way but using technology. I do mean to say that doing things with technology the way we have been doing without technology. To…[Read more]

Yes Esther, it’s true those are the same things we were doing without technology and still what we do with it. As long as there is no fundamental change, then we are just substituting as in the SAMR model!!
-
so long as the attitude is changed and we wholesomely welcome technology, nothing is impossible.
-
True Walter we need to show that technology is relevant and very important in the teaching/learning process.

7.3 4 – new things and new ways – what do emerging trends show us 9 years, 5 months agoTablet Computing.
There is an increasing inclination towards Tablet computing, which presents new opportunities to enhance learning experiences in ways simply not possible with mobile phones, laptops or desktops and is especially suited for one-to-one learning environments. High-resolution screens allow users of tablets, such as the iPad and…[Read more]-

Education systems are increasingly investigating the use of technology to better understand a student’s knowledge base from prior learning and to tailor teaching to both address learning gaps as well as learning styles. This focus transforms a classroom from one that teaches to the m…[Read more]-

7.3 4 – new things and new ways – what do emerging trends show us 9 years, 5 months agoThese technologies have become a pervasive part of everyday life in much of the world, and are growing everywhere. Students have ever-increasing expectations of being able to work, play and learn on these devices whenever they want and wherever they may be. Once banned from the classroom in some developed countries, mobile devices and apps are…[Read more]

Social media is one of the pervasive technologies. As much as schools and institutions block their use, students always find a way of accessing them for their own benefit. Teachers need to utilise this and use it profitably for students’ learning and achievement.

I agree entirely.

Commonwealth Certificate for Teacher ICT Integration
Very true , one computer, some times they even have more but they only use the devices in the classrooms. We have not thought of learning beyond classroom walls. And this takes us back to old basket.e
I wish to agree with Mr. Bulamba that the current way mobile technologies are integrated in teaching is like doing new things in old ways. The very old pedagogies are still being used to teach using the mobile devices. However, I see good potential for learning using the mobile devices if pedagogy can be changed to suit the new wave of mobile…[Read more]
True Martin and Sulaiman. The unwillingness of teachers to let learners use their personal devices in studying which by the way could be more efficient than the one computer in class makes it difficult for them to fully infuse technology in their teaching.
It could be that they are not well grounded in the integration of ICT in the teaching and…[Read more]
the technology tools used in schools, what i have noted that the teachers have not realized their potential. they simply don’t know what they can do (the extent)
