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.

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.

Lukia, this is an enriching resource and supports the argument on technology breaking the classroom walls.
Very Well done-
I have liked the group work ideas

7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoHello members, I also agree that technology can break down the walls of a classroom and create virtual learning spaces. Just take an example of this CCTI Course we are doing. There are no classroom wall but we can continue with the course. Let’s have a look at this link m…[Read more]

The CCTI course is indeed a good example.

Thanks Prossy

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]

Very true about the remote areas. May be they can use solar!

What Rehema said is true but Prossy my dear Ugandan schools can not afford solar!

For one device in the classroom the best way is to use a projector, that is if there is one. If none then grouping learners can be handy.

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.

7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoThe contradiction of learners engaging and learning with technology away from school, only to be told to put away their technologies at school in order to “learn” should be seriously addressed and resolved.
-
That comes with a lot of sensitization and it begins with us the converted.
-
Sure Emma, but it may not come easily just like Patrick notes, a lot of sensitization to many stakeholders.

7.4 Construction group 9 years, 5 months agoMobile and personal technology is transforming the way learning spaces are used and configured. Traditionally learning spaces were aligned with student desks and chairs (or benches) in rows facing the front of the classroom, often secured to the floor. Obviously this arrangement supported passive learning and methods of direct instruction but…[Read more]

Charles in addition to the collaboration and the possibility of the environment being flexible ,i have also taken note of the idea of he
variation of furniture you are arguing for. This in a similar way also
allows for the flexibility suitability to the different forms of spaces we are advocating for. -
I agree with the need to redisign and change the setting of the learning spaces as technology more technologies come in place to support the teaching – learning process.
The flexibility allows room for adapting and adopting new pedagogies within the same working space for example the use of group work, cooperative learning, research work and i…[Read more]
