One
Computer Classroom
In
April I taught a graduate-level class for elementary school teachers on
integrating the Internet into thematic units. They were preparing for
the introduction of computers in each of their classrooms. Initially,
there was some disagreement about whether the model they are following,
one computer per classroom, is preferable over putting all the new
machines into a lab or resource room setting. By the end of the second
class meeting, however, they were thankful that they would not be put in
a position in which they would be in charge of a number of students,
each on his or her own machine, going in as many directions. Of course,
management is only one of the issues in the ongoing placement of
computer resources debate. article by Serena Roberts

Teachers, Computers and
the Classroom: a Lesson from History
What
piece of new educational technology is being described in the following
quote?
"[This
device] appealed at once to the eye and to the ear, thus naturally
forming the habit of attention, which is so difficult to form by the
study of books .... Whenever a pupil does not fully understand, [it]
will have the opportunity ... of enlarging and making
intelligible."
Educational
television? The computer? No. The quote is from 1855, and describes the
latest advancement in the technology of the time: the chalkboard. High
tech? Well, it once was, and interestingly enough, this now standard
piece of educational equipment was not accepted or used by teachers when
it was first introduced.

fountain approach is rarely the best model to adopt.

The One Computer Classroom
You can
use almost any educational software or Internet sites from the front of the
classroom to guide and direct student learning and to inspire discussion. It
helps to create roles for the groups so each person has a perspective to help
guide the discussion.
