Q

Blended learning can be grouped into six distinct models. Namely:

  1. Face-to-face driver
  2. Rotation
  3. Primary delivery
  4. Flex
  5. Online Lab
  6. Self-Blend
  7. Online Driver.

Which one does not belong in the list?

A
  1. Primary delivery
17
Q

What does ‘rotation’ mean in the field of blended learning?

A

Within a given course, students rotate on a fixed schedule between self-paced online learning and sitting in a classroom with a face-to-face teacher.

18
Q

True or false: Face-to-face teachers deliver most of the curriculum. A physical teacher employs online learning in a technology lab or the back of the classroom to supplement.

A

True

19
Q

True or false: Flex, refers to an online platform which delivers most of the curriculum. Teacher provide on-site, as-needed support thtough in-person tutoring or small group sessions.

True or false: the tools and learning goals are all the same for all students.

A

False. the tools used depend on the student, the learning goals are the same for all

26
Q

What is adaptive learning?

A

This is software that adapts its content and pacing to the current knowledge level of the user, so it’s almost like having a personal tailor for your education.

27
Q

29
Q

Name 5 benefits of technology in Education.

A

• low cost (free apps, space, traffic, time)
• reach more people (e.g., MOOC)
• own pace, own time, own place (e.g., asynchronous elearning)
• integrating visual with written enhances, accelerates
comprehension (e.g., digital storytelling)
• helps enhance retention of social skills and academics
(e.g., iPad)
• promotes 21st century skills
• engagement (e.g., VR)
• individualization (e.g., adaptive learning)

30
Q

True or false: “test scores were significantly higher in classrooms using the
reading and mathemathics software products than those in control
classrooms”

A

False. Test scores were not significantly higher.

31
Q

True or false: There are no significant differences in student achievement between the classrooms that used the technology products and classrooms that did not.

A

True.

32
Q

True or false: due to failing in adressing important key pieces that other research and educators strongly agree are critical to the succes of ANY efforts to transform teaching and learning. There’s a need to INTEGRATE these key pieces.

True.

33
Q

What is a critical issue & problem in technology education according to Wicklein (2005)?

A

There’s a concern & crisis over insufficient quantities of qualified new technology educators entering the instructional ranks.

34
Q

What are possible problems which can occur in technology education?

A
  • Feeling of Isolation (BV with asynchronous learning)
  • Sleeping problems (time spend behind tablet)
  • Playing instead of learning (classroom pc)
  • Musculoskeletal harm?
  • Radiation?
