Reflections
Mark Prensky, states that the students we have today are no longer the students we had long ago. They are now considered as "Digital Natives". this means that they have been emerged in technology. This group grew up with technology and are able to maneuver briskly through that vast innovations that exist. My topic is on the Barriers to Adoption with ICT. Through this investigate I have learned that it is important to make the best with what you have. At present my students are using BlackBerry, IPad, IPOD, Facebook, Twitter, and Whats Up. I can take these technological devices and software and integrate its use within the classroom. For example, phones with internet can be used to record voicethreads, and to create Podcasting. Tablets can do almost everything. It can allow one the ability to get in touch with the greater world and access resource. The tablet also allows for filming, voice recording, watching videos, and researching information. The use of programs such as facebook,Skype, Blackberry messengers, and Iface is used as a tool to collaborate with each other. Students can discuss back and forth and plan for assignments. Ipod can be used to listen to audio podcast, surf the internet, and access information needed for additional information to complete assignments.
My ultimate favorite is the Ipad. This device can allow one to use all these technological tools to be held using one interface. Through the Apps the able complement collaboration,content and communication.
