Edmodo empowers EL students’ use of tech Easy to use for teacher and the students • simple design that is accessible to the students • closed site with no public access or advertising • connects to Google Drive • organizes all resources for a unit into a folder Students can • post links to pictures or documents to a group of students or individual student • reply • participate in polls and quizzes

  10. iPads support oral language and reading • iPad lowers affective filters • Practice oral language by recording into the iPad and listening • Raz Kids (www.raz-kids.com) • Read online books or listen to a digital recording and follow along with the highlighted text • Read at, below, or above their reading level and choose books of their interests

  11. iPad use supports student research Students research for personal reasons • take initiative to find information on topic of interest • watch and learn from videos they find • recommend that teacher post on Edmodo for class Students research for classwork • first access images with less text because reading level is still low • don’t know how to select reputable sites so teacher/students collaborate • teacher puts pre-selected links on Edmodo

  12. Suggestions for implementing iPads in the classroom • Develop clear protocols for iPad use in class • Allocate enough time to introduce the device and allow students to explore and be comfortable with the applications • Be clear about the end goal of the lesson • Decide which technology is best to use and when it should be used in the lesson

  13. Policy Implications Reform implementation requires sustained focus over time • Communicate importance of iPads to faculty, students and families • Promote sustained and systematic use of iPads across the curriculum • Ensure equitable access for all students • Develop an evaluation system to analyze implementation success • Prioritize professional development • Provide time to explore and practice specific apps • Learn how to maximize student learning with iPads • Focus on fewer apps used schoolwide • Provide tech support • Efficient distribution of iPads and orientation for students • Maintenance and update of equipment
