New Technology: The Issues
This Teachers TV video shows Goldsmiths College's Professor Richard Kimbell and senior researcher Tony Wheeler leading a discussion on the effectiveness of handheld technology and software following a two day trial at Saltash Community School in Cornwall.
The discussion reflects on the challenge of using new technology to enhance learning in classrooms rather than allowing the technology to take over.
The discussion is useful for those schools that are considering the best way to invest in new technology. Whether to continue opting for large expensive personal computers or choose something smaller and more personalised?
