I'm finally making some progress. I found an overwhelming amount of articles on mobile devices in education. There are a lot of viewpoints out there, and I am interested in reading what they have to say.
For my required project, I plan to make an enhanced podcast discussing pros and cons of a certain focus area. Hopefully the articles will guide my thinking. I seem to be biased towards the pros since I love technology so much :)
For my optional project, I am creating a doable lesson that would work with mobile devices. I am going to test it out using a few human subjects and evaluate the effectiveness of the assignment. The main thing is finding people that can take pictures with their phones and sending it to my e-mail. Not sure how it is going to work out, but it's worth a try.
Have a good 4th of July everyone :)

I don't take many pictures with my phone but my grandkids to constantly. I you e-mail me an idea of what you want I'll have them help you out. They have plenty of free time right now. They also know how to send the photos to you. Something I haven't figured out yet. It sounds like we have all found plenty of articles. Now we just have to find the ones that will work for us.
ReplyDeleteI like your ideas, I am not sure how to create a podcast, but I can see how useful they are. Using it in education can have positive benefits, students can listen to them on their own time and more than once. As for the lesson plan idea, that would work well especially with this generation that are so technically savvy.
ReplyDeleteWhat program will you use to create a podcast?

Wow, I like your optional project idea. Very hands on.
ReplyDeleteHopefully you will find some more volunteers in the class to take some pictures for your project. It sounds great!
ReplyDeleteHeidi, do you have any particular subject that you want pictures taken of. I have two grandchildren who will be glad to help you. One is taking a computer class and if you want I will ask the teacher to give him permission to take a few pictures if that's what you need.
