Change for the Better – 1:1 iPad Program | Learning Journey
There is no question that our 1:1 iPad Program is making a significant difference to the learning experiences occurring in our classrooms. Change is everywhere. It is change enabled by simplicity. iPads are brilliantly simple and are at the same time powerful. This has made technology accessible to both students and teachers. Teachers One of the biggest shifts in our school has been the shift by teachers. This has happened rapidly. Technical Support and Enablement .Provision of a Technology Coordinator: In our own experience having a teacher continuously available to assist, advise, arrange, support, respond has made the effective roll out possible. In the Classrooms – The StudentsManagement: it is really important to establish a code of conduct / behaviour around student use of iPads.

A Comprehensive Guide for Effective Use of iPad in Teaching
iPad, this mystic gadget that has been making the news since its launch a few years ago, has now secured a strong foothold inside different educational settings. Its sharp design, practical portability, and the sublime sense of mobile gadgetry it bestows upon its users and, above all, its widespread among learners , all of these factors combined made this tablet an indispensable tool in the learning toolkit of students. With this huge presence inside our schools, several school districts have finally adopted it as a teaching and learning tool to be used inside the classroom. App developers, on their part, have also noticed this increasing potential of iPad in education and therefore started creating and developing apps targeting the educational audience. From apps for toddlers to advanced research apps, the app store now is teeming with all kinds of educational apps. In this context, several teachers are planning to incorporate iPad for the first time in their classroom instruction.

A Simple Way To Introduce Your Students To Coding
A Simple Way To Introduce Your Students To Coding As apps and digital projects become more important to how we live and play, learning how to design and create those ideas is going to become more important as well. And if the current trend continues, more accessible than ever. While many coding resources for students exist, many of these look like they were designed by lifeless robots. Coding already has a reputation as geeky, dry, and alphanumeric, as opposed to the svelte, elegant, and engaging interaction that code produces. HopScotch is an iPad app that introduces students to the concept of coding by using simple graphics, lots of color, and easy to use tools. Using HopScotch, students can become familiar with the relationship with numbers and letters here, and subsequent movement or animation there. Coding is as much about planning, structure, design, and careful processes as it is software and programs–which, as an aside, makes it a brilliant way to teach the writing process itself.

Auch diesmal habe ich mich entschlossen, die Präsentation mal durchzuklicken und hier vorzustellen, denn ich lasse mich gerne von anderen Leuten inspirieren… Rubrics in Moodle Immer wieder stellt sich die Frage, wie Arbeiten von Schülerinnen und Schülern ganzheitlich beurteilt werden können. Gerne verwende ich Beurteilungsraster (Rubrics), in denen ich dann für die Arbeit oder das Projekt typische Qualitätsbereiche aufliste.
