QUESTION 1
SECTION A
The Educator as Classroom Manager
Millennials have been born into volatile economic periods of
boom, bust, recession and crisis. They are members of a poor
generation but manage to remain optimistic. Sociologists explain
that this optimism is due to technology. Millennials enjoy
networking with like-minded people across the world. They
know that technology will never stop advancing, and this gives
them hope. Older-generation educators who have their
reservations about the capability of millennials to lead the world,
may be worrying too much. These educators are of the opinion
that today’s learners think they know more than their educators.
Older educators are comfortable with the traditional way of
doing things and are resistant to change.
1.1 Technology is changing how we work. As an educator, give
a blueprint of how you
, would control technology in your classroom.
(10)
To effectively control and integrate technology in a classroom setting, it’s crucial for educators
to establish a balanced approach that ensures technology serves as a productive tool for learning.
Here’s a blueprint for controlling technology in the classroom:
1. Set Clear Usage Policies
Begin the year by establishing clear guidelines on acceptable technology use in the
classroom. This includes rules around device usage (phones, tablets, laptops), appropriate
websites, and respecting others' privacy. Explicitly outline when, where, and how
technology should be used during lessons.
2. Utilize a Device-Free Zone
Designate specific times or areas as device-free zones. This encourages students to focus
on teacher-led discussions, group work, and other non-technology-related activities.
During these periods, all devices should be put away unless they’re needed for a specific
task.
3. Incorporate Technology Breaks
Allow scheduled "tech breaks" where students can use their devices for a limited period
to check messages or browse social media. This helps prevent distractions during lesson
time by reducing the urge to check their devices constantly.
4. Leverage Educational Apps and Platforms
Use technology tools that directly support learning objectives. For instance, employ apps
like Google Classroom for assignments, interactive platforms like Kahoot for quizzes, or
software like Zoom for remote learning. Demonstrate and monitor their use to keep
students focused on educational content.
5. Monitor and Support Online Behavior
Educate students about responsible online behavior, including digital etiquette, online
safety, and the consequences of misusing technology. Regularly monitor their online
activities during class to ensure they are engaged in learning-related tasks.
6. Involve Students in Setting Goals
Let students participate in setting technology-related goals for the classroom. This
encourages them to take ownership of their technology use and make conscious choices
about how they use devices to support their learning.
7. Encourage Collaboration Using Technology
Foster collaborative projects using tools like Google Docs, which allows multiple
students to work on assignments in real time. This harnesses technology’s collaborative
potential while keeping students focused on productive activities.
8. Limit Distractions with Web Filtering
Use web-filtering software to block non-educational websites during class hours. Inform
students of this practice to minimize distractions and ensure that devices are used strictly
for educational purposes.
9. Model Appropriate Technology Use
Demonstrate positive tech use by showing students how to use technology effectively.
This could involve modeling research skills, using educational apps, or showing how to
troubleshoot basic tech issues, which promotes a productive tech environment.
