ADAPTIVE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES
THE GOOD
• A sophisticated LMS will adapt
to your preferences and begin to
deliver content in ways that
better match how you learn.
THE TO BE NOTED

ADAPTIVE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES
“Google knows you better than
you do.”
“Google is turning you into the
person it thinks you want to be.”
(For the record, so is Facebook.)

Microchips in humans?
It’s no longer IF .....

DEVICES that can be implanted in the brain are being trialled to treat seizures, pain, psychiatric
conditions and Parkinson's disease. New electrodes - half a millimetre thick - are being designed
to insert into the brain, detect abnormal brain activity and deliver instant treatment.

AFFECTIVE COMPUTING
• Affective computing is the idea that humans can program machines
to recognise, interpret, process and simulate the range of human
emotions.
Can we teach the
machine?

ROBOTS AS CARERS
Over the last 30 years people
have increasingly being more
open about the idea of having a
robot as friend or carer.

ROBOTS AS TUTORS
• Good Vibes - an app to help autistic people in their
interpersonal relationships
• Tega: a tool (robot) for instructors to assess student
comprehension and attention in real time

NETWORKED OBJECTS - THE INTERNET OF THINGS
(a network of things)
• Tracking objects/monitoring information – wildlife,
consumables, health, inventory management

DIGITAL LITERACY?
• Finland has declared that cursive
handwriting will no longer be a
requirement from 2017.
However:
• “Scientists decided to conduct a second
experiment in which these students
would be given a week to review for the
exam. The participants would be tested
on simple facts as well as concepts,
inferences, and applications of the
material. Even after a week of review, the
students who took notes in longhand
were found to do significantly better than
the other students in the experiment,
including the fleet typists

However..... 
• Auditor’s comment:
“I suggest you steer away
from collaborative
assessment.”

THE PROBLEM:
"The dominant culture of education has come to focus not on teaching
and learning, but testing...this...leads to a culture of compliance rather
than creativity.“
http://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_how_to_escape_education_s_death_valley.html

TEACHING AND ASSESSING
NAPLAN: “It’s not the test that
counts but the teaching that is
critical ... and good teachers
know this.”
Greg Whitby

CONCLUSION?
THE USE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES DOES NOT IPSO FACTO RESULT IN INCREASED:
• COLLABORATION
• COMMUNICATION
• CRITICAL THINKING
• PROBLEM SOLVING
IT IS STILL THE JOB OF THE TEACHER TO CRAFT CHALLENGING TASKS AND
ACTIVITIES THAT CAN TRANSFORM LEARNING.
IT TAKES TIME AND IT TAKES HARD THINKING.

LET TECHNOLOGY DRIVE SOMETIMES!

MINDFUL USE OF TECHNOLOGY
• Net Smart - how to use Internet
technology intelligently,
humanely, and, above all,
mindfully.
• INFOTENTION – surf with
purpose; know why you’re there;
have a goal!

ETHICS OF TECHNOLOGIES
technologies transform the minds and culture
of their users

IF WE CAN DO IT WE WILL.

EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY ALWAYS LAGS BEHIND
• VCRs, Internet, mobile phones, ipads were not invented with
education in mind but they have become commonplace tools
in educational delivery.
• Education co-opts popular technologies for its own use.
• Robots, wearable technology, augmented reality WILL
be part of educational delivery of the future – it’s
up to you to show us HOW.
