Brittany Cavanough's curator insight, May 29, 2017 8:43 AM

On my practical placement, I witnessed my mentor teacher use kahoot with her grade 8 class and for those 10 minutes I could not wipe the smile off my face and thought, this is why I am here. The students were engaged, they loved it and the teacher got an idea of if the class understood a concept or if they needed more work on it. While it does not promote higher order thinking I do think there is a place for it within the classroom.

Engaging tool to use. Can easily create an interactive quiz for the whole class to be involved with.
Wendy White's curator insight, March 28, 3:50 PM

Kahoot! Allows students to engage in learning while collecting data playing educational games and quizes.

iPad Research in Schools - Use and Impact of the iPad

iPad Research in Schools - Use and Impact of the iPad | Android and iPad apps for language teachers | Scoop.it

An in-depth study that took place in Scotland, looking at "issues associated with the deployment of personal mobile devices as tools for teaching and learning."
Four themes were identified:

* How tablet devices impacted teaching and learning?

* Leadership and management issues

* Parental engagement

* Professional development and learning for teachers

The post lists six headlines from the study, including (quoting):

* The adoption of mobile technologies on a personal basis significantly increases access to technology for students, both inside and beyond school, with many attendant benefits for learning which include greater motivation, engagement, parental involvement, and understanding of complex ideas.

 * Teachers are equally engaged by the use of a device like the iPad which has a low learning curve enabling them to use it immediately as a teaching tool and a learning tool for themselves.

For more information click through to the article. To download the report you will need to go a link at the end of the articles "iPad Scotland Evaluation."
