Session Description
Sometimes we can shy away from integrating technology into a
traditional, discussion based classroom for fear it might interfere
with the important development of face-to-face communication
skills, but this session seeks to introduce ways in which technology
in a 1-1 classroom can enhance and scaffold democratic
discussion. Tools to enhance various aspects of the learning
process and discussion experience, including
inquiry, preparation, recall, engagement, response, and
reflection, will be highlighted.

tools or technologies rather it is about

competence of use and most importantly
the quality of the process or product.

Active
Listening
Generative
Questioning
Active Listening
“This is where you
make a conscious
effort to hear not
only the words that
another person is
saying but, more
importantly, try to
understand the
complete message
being sent.”
http://www.mindtools.com/CommSkll/ActiveListening.htm
Generative Questioning
“This does not refer
to the teacher asking
students a question,
it refers to students
creating their own
questions and
problems, and then
using the new
information to
answer it.”
http://wik.ed.uiuc.edu/articles/g/e/n/Generative_strategies.html
Self-Reflection

Which questions do you have?
Think – Pair - Share
But what about the FEAR!
Intentionality and Mindfulness
Technology need not be frantic and disruptive
