How can technology enhance learning when students are not the ones accessing it?
When parents have access to technology.
When parents access teacher websites, they can have an idea about what to expect in that particular teacher's class. They can get their children ready for that class prior hand by buying books, art supplies etc. They can also keep a constant check on their children if all the home work, classwork , tests are being provided on the website. All this will develop student's learning consistently.
Last but not the least when grades are available through web portals parents exactly know the growth of their children. This will keep a constant check on the students and help them to improve progressively.
In this age of digital world we are all in the process of using technology one way or the other. If students don't have access to technology, they will be indirectly helped by teachers and parents who uses technology for various reasons.
How can students learning improve when teachers have access to technology?
When teachers get new ideas through internet , their lesson plan changes, and it makes the classroom setting more interesting for the students. Teachers can get the attention of students by using lot of videos, clips and presentations in their classes. Not only this attracts students but also it helps a lot of visual learners. When concepts are explained through images and videos students remember them more easily and they can recollect it for tests and exams.
When teachers update themselves with the recent information about a particular topic through internet, they can provide those as examples during lectures. This will again be encouraged by students and they would be more willing to learn more updated information in that subject area.
Again, when teachers get different set of worksheets through other teacher websites, it makes them a better teacher by preparing the class for special education and regular group of kids.
When grade books are online easy access can be done , and constant feed back can be provided to the students. This will help students to improve and pay attention on those areas where they need more practice.
By sending monitor reports online, parents get to know their son/daughter progress immediately and necessary actions can be taken as soon as possible.
