  1. TEACHING WITH TABLETS • PowerPoint Overview of the ASCD Book • “Teaching with Tablets” • Frey, Fisher and Gonzalez • BY DR. DOUG HAZLETT

  2. YouTube Videos • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8uipWM6R3o • Ellen’s monologue about iPads and technology • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXV-yaFmQNk • A magazine is an iPad that does not work.

  3. iPad Facts • Apple’s iPad tablet was first released in 2010. • Apple, the leading tablet producer, reported sales of 4.5 million iPads for educational use through the end of 2012.

  4. An iPad Teaching Framework • iPad instruction centered around the following instructional framework for learning: • I. Focused Instruction – The teacher presents the lesson purpose, alerting students to the learning target and providing them with goals to measure their progress. • II. Guided Instruction – Students begin to apply the skills, strategies, or processes that were introduced, with the teacher monitoring progress and collecting formative assessment.

  5. iPad Teaching Framework cont. • III. Collaborative Learning – Students consolidate their thinking and work together to apply new skills and knowledge to a novel situation. Learners engage in face-to-face and digital conversations to deepen their understanding. • IV. Independent Learning – Students apply what they have been taught.

  6. TECHNOLOGY IS A TOOL iPads are a tool for learning

  7. Focused Instruction • Focused instruction prepares students for learning by focusing them on the content, strategies, or skills being taught. • Perhaps record a screencast of yourself delivering the purpose statement and elaborating on its details. • Using analogies to link prior knowledge to new learning. • Modeling thinking aloud. • Using your iPad, an Apple TV and projector allows your iPad to be seen by your class.

  8. Guided Instruction • Consider the use of apps such as NearPod and ShowMe. Both provide opportunities to engage students and gain insight into their understanding of new content. Allows for formative assessment. • See example on page 17. • www.nearpod.com • www.showme.com

  9. Collaborative Learning • Simply requiring two or more students to share a tablet can be enough to prompt the kind of face-to-face interactions that benefit all students. • The Type.with.me app is a web-based, real-time collaborative tool that allows up to 16 users at a time to work on the same document. Each writer’s comments are highlighted in a different color. www.typewithme.com • The Aurasma app allows students to take part in a scavenger hunt or gallery walk. www.aurasma.com • Students can create original content together using Haiku Deck, a presentational software for tablets. See page 24. • www.haikudeck.com

  10. Independent Learning • The Literacy Design Collaborative has developed useful task templates that encourage students to continue to build their knowledge during the independent learning phase. • www.literacydesigncollaborative.org • Students can use tablets for conducting independent research and inquiry.

  11. Logistical Considerations for Using iPads • Aligning instruction and learning objectives with the appropriate apps • Technical support from IT personnel as needed • Infrastructure considerations such as adequate wireless capability • Ongoing professional development

  12. A TABLET IS ONLY A TOOL
