Intro: talk about traditional learning methods. Open with an anecdote about using chalk boards in elementary school
Change slides and talk about we went from chalk boards to calculator. Transition to rest of intro
Transition again to the first kinds of computers – only used for various things
Fourth part of intro – now almost everything in our school is run by technology (i.e. Smart Boards)
Motivation for project: I make web sites and I think it’s interesting that I learned how to do that in school one example of how technology has changed learning
Evidence #1: death of handwriting – explain how it isn’t emphasized as heavily
Typing and word processing has replaced handwritten assignments in most cases – go on to explain how this is significant
Transition into thesis: explain that my experience in web design led me to wonder how computers and other types of technology have revolutionized schooling. Use this quote as emphasis. Link to video clip (3:48-5:07)
Decline of teachers actually doing the teaching – they’ll become more like a teacher’s assistant as opposed to the actual instructor of the class (if education becomes even more technology-enhanced)
Discuss the money issue: expensive to buy and to train teachers to understand the technology – “digital divide”
Explain how support is really important to the success of technological integration – move into positives of technology and education
Students are more enthusiastic about using technology in school: benefits of learning from an early age
Appreciation of business owners and corporations in having technologically-educated employees – helps industries work faster and more efficiently
Talk about design concept – show drawn design both on ppt and hard copy
Explain programs used to make websites
Explain the process and how it went
Points to reiterate: Development of tech in schools Pros: makes for a more enthusiastic learning environment, motivates students, etc. Cons: digital divide, money issue, etc.
Concluding slide: wrap up w/ emphasis on money and how it will determine technology’s role in education
