  4. Introduction • Reflexive teacher • Challenges (3) • Conclude

  5. I. Reflexive teacher • A reflexive professional • A practitioner in a situation • Someone teaching for learning

  10. 1. Resilience (to avoid the negative) • Mrs. Oublier’s syndrom (Cohen, 1990) • To graft innovative practices onto traditional ways of teaching

  11. Negative: mechanical reproduction • How, as a teacher, am I equipped for teaching? • Decision-making background • Representation of learning

  12. 2. Reason (to keep our heads) • For my students, what is the added-value of using digital technology in the classroom?

  13. Influences on achievement using 900+ meta-analyses Hattie, J. (2011). Visible learning for teachers. Routledge: New York Major domains of interest (teacher, curricula, teaching, student, home and school)

  14. Rank these 11 effects: • Reducing disruptive behavior in the class • Feedback • Acceleration of gifted students • Reading Recovery • Integrated curriculum programs • Homework • Individualized instruction • Ability grouping • Open vs. traditional classes • Retention (holding back a year) • Shifting schools from 1 = highest effect to 11 = lowest effect

  15. Rank these 11 effects: answers • Reducing disruptive behavior in the class .86 • Feedback .72 • Acceleration of gifted students .60 • Reading Recovery .50 • Integrated curriculum programs .40 • Homework .30 • Individualized instruction .20 • Ability grouping .10 • Open vs. traditional classes .00 • Retention (holding back a year) -.16 • Shifting schools -.34

  21. Animation, Robotic and Fablab with 3D-printing … Scratch Kodable Tynker.

  22. Other ways, and usual challenges • To find effective practices • Simulation tools • Digital games • Video • Interactive whiteboard • Artificially intelligent software • ...

  23. 3. Results (to reflect) • How does digital technology impact my practice? • How does the use of technology influence the way my students learn? • …
