Lets get
Cracking
Put Sts in Groups. Questions, while

7 Questions “What is … Web 2.0, website,
webpage, E-Learning, Blended-Learning, Mobile-Learning, ICT”?
1 Web2.0
Let the clip explain
Show clip stop at 1.05mins. Groups what did they
understand from the clip
To understand Web 2.0 we need to go back in
time to its predecessor…
Web 1.0
This was back in the early 1990’s when on
Internet you could only read published information, as you would a newspaper.
“You
had no voice.”
The website spoke to the website visitor & that was
that.
One-way communication.
Web 2.0
In the early/ mid 2000’s websites spoke to
the website visitor & allowed the website visitor to speak back.
Via
comments on the webpage, upload pictures / videos, all from your own Internet
space via applications, Blogs, Wikis, Social Media such as Facebook, Twitter
etc.
Thus encouraging people to collaborate and
share information online
“You
have a voice”
Two-way communication; commonly known as “User Generated
Content”
2 Website
Is a location on
Internet that has one or more webpages.
3 Webpage
When you enter
website it’s what you click on. Click on page link on Guardian website
4 E-Learning
Learning via Internet,
(Distance Learning) Question to Sts “Pros & Cons”. Pros. Flexibility to fit sts
day-to-day life, Mobility to do it where you like, at home in a café. Etc Cons, Need a
computer, distractions at home, self-discipline, etc
“Successful E-learning
depends on the self motivation of the individual to study effectively”
5 Blended-Learning
Is a mixture of E-learning
with more traditional classroom methods.
6 Mobile-Learning
Is E-learning using a
mobile device, tablet, phone. ” Any time, Any place,
Anywhere” Like the Martini Rosso Advert
7 ICT
“Information &
Communications Technology” Is any communication device or application: radio,
television, mobile phone, computer, tablet, hardware, software, satellite
systems etc)
What do I need
to get started?
You’ll
need an I.C.T., which can connect you to the web and tools to use with it.
Q’s to Sts: “What are Web Tools?” (Blogs, Wikis, Social Media,
Bookmarking Tools, Games & Quizzes, Online Storage, Edmodo etc)
“Lets look at the list below”
The link below is only the tip of the
Web 2.0 iceberg.
So, Web 2.0 in 4 points write the 3 words on board
1. It’s
Interactive
When you go to the website there’s
something to do, something to create.
2. It’s
Accessible
Accessibility from any operating system.
(Software that runs a computer, i.e. windows, Linux, Mac
OS X etc). “Any time, any place any
where”.
3. It’s Collaborative
A lot of different ways for other
people to contribute to what you have created.
4. It’s
Blended-Learning
This quote is Web 2.0 Write on Board
“Tell me and I'll
forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I'll understand.” 450BC Confucius; a Chinese philosopher
Brain storm ideas in small groups why
web 2.0 is important in Todays Education.
10 Reasons why Web 2.0 is important in
Todays Education
1.
Our students have grown up with The Internet. They’re always Tweeting, Chatting, What’s apping. What they like will encourage them to learn.
2. Students
will be applying for jobs that don’t yet exist. Facebook only started 11 years ago. Future
jobs you’ll need to be “computer literate”
3. Independent
learning at the student’s own pace. Student
centred & student in charge of learning
4. The
teacher is no longer the only source of knowledge. Internet has changed that. The teacher is not the driver,
rather the vehicle.
5. Internet
lets you study anywhere, even in “Starbucks”.
The classroom walls have been
taken away.
6. Encourages
questions such as, “why?” & “how?” avoids remembering “Parrot Fashion”
7.
Teamwork. Project work enables students
to choose the part they enjoy while keeping in touch with the group via the web.
8. Student-teacher
contact and correction can be instant via Internet
9. The
textbook is no longer the central item of learning.
10. Imagination.
Students come up new ways to do new or old
things encouraging their imagination
11. Web
2.0 helps develop life long learning skills “Get into Learning”
These are just the tip of the iceberg. I’m
sure you can come up with many more reasons why Web 2.0 is important in today’s
education.
Here is a selection of clips/videos to give you some
ideas of what we can get up to in a digital classroom.
Questions & discussion after each
clip
Questions to be asked related to each
video, (advantages disadvantages, what ICTs are used & how are they used,
teacher reaction to web 2.0 & ICTs, what changes have they seen in their
students, has learning improved, etc.
What were each group doing (computer
centre, interactive white board, use a device to measure force & a reading
group)
What did you like & not like about
the class, (Sts working alone on computer, very quick, hands on push & pull,
how often use ict- everyday
What I.C.T’s did we see in class –
interactive white board, tablets, teacher controlling with her tablet. The
tablet has become a part of everyday life. Students motivated & self
assured using the tablet. Enjoying school more. Using video about star
constellations. Teacher shares a presentation with sts via her tablet. Sts work
together. Using quiz to check learning. Teacher can see on her tablet what the
sts are doing. Encourage exploration of night sky. Encourage stimulus.
Motivates sts.
Technology can enhance learning,
motivate & inspire sts. Guided reading 80% of sts use English as an
additional language. Blended reading class. Future skills to enter jobs market.
Introducing coding. Blended-learning running on the spot & then seeing
their pulse rate.
Don’t need to be an ict expert. Using
comic strip app in Volcano class. Ict used in science, maths lessons. Playing a
game & learning at the same time. Fun, learning is a game.
Ict in sport, science, taking photos,
videos, it’s their textbook, dairy everything.
Ict takes learning outside the class.
Self study at home & contact with teacher which could be limited to answer
question at a certain time) All working on the same project in class
encouraging collaboration. The teacher can see what sts are writing. More
engaged. Preparing sts for the future.
The teacher can see what sts are
writing. Sts working together. Improvement of less able students. Teachers of
all age groups enjoying using Ict.
Child Protection
Round table discussion of what are the
problems involved. (grooming, cyber bulling
online pornography, radicalisation, inappropriate Content, Sexting)& how to prevent them.
On Line Grooming: Is
when someone builds an emotional connection with a child to gain their trust
for the purposes of sexual abuse or exploitation.
Cyberbulling On Line: One of the biggest differences
between cyber bullying and face-to-face bullying is that it can be hard to get
away from. Young people could be bullied anywhere, anytime – even when they’re
at home.
Risks children face online: Cyberbullying
Inappropriate Content:
Content
containing swearing; that encourage vandalism, crime, terrorism, racism, eating
disorders, even suicide.
Pictures,
videos or games which show images of violence or cruelty to other people or
animals,
Unmoderated-chatrooms –
where there’s no one supervising the conversation and barring unsuitable
comments.
Gambling
sites
Sexting: Sexting is the sending or receiving of sexually explicit or
sexually suggestive images, messages, or video via a mobile phone or the
Internet. This has the potential to haunt a teen for the rest of his or her
life.
The
best way to deal with children on the Internet is, from the very first day
educate them about the positive side of the digital world but also the bad; you
don’t want to frighten them but it is important that children are aware of the
risks involved.
Remember always look carefully at
“privacy settings”
Here are some useful sights
