What I’ve learned
• One to One gives students options for final products. (iMovie, Keynote, PowerPoint, Word/Pages Templates, ComicLife, etc..)
• Student quality of work appears to be better. (When students take a vested interest in the project.)
• Allows more “projects” because “class time” is not as big as an issue as before.
• Easier to differentiate curriculum and provide “multiple pathways” to learning.
What I’ve learned continued...
• Important to pre-teach expectations, assignments, and model as much as possible, but still give students enough freedom to wow you.
• Important to have “consequences” for students who are off-task or easily distracted. Place yourself in classroom where you can view student screens. Remember “I’m Still in Charge.”
• Have “paper-copies” or a PLAN B ready for those students without a computer or when the network goes down.
• Good Teaching is still Good Teaching. (Active Participation, Clear Objectives, Checking for Understanding, etc...)
