Craighead has a predominantly African-American population and 95 percent of its students are eligible for free and reduced lunch. Harris has been steadily trying to integrate devices into her teaching practice, while being aware that kids and their families have different comfort levels with technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents were receptive to letting their children bring tablets from home, but don’t always understand the nature of the digital work. “Parents just wanted to see it in black and white,” Harris said, \"because some of my students are being raised by grandparents and they really didn't know what these digital assignments were.” Some grandparents didn't believe their students were doing their reading on their devices. To strike a balance, Harris does paper and pencil creative projects, along with digital ones. She also sends all information home in various formats so everyone feels informed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris has found that student-owned tablets -- cell phones aren't allowed by the district in elementary school -- are most helpful for increasing engagement, allowing students opportunities for creative expression and for giving her more information about when students understand a concept and when they’re struggling. Even though she teaches fourth grade, some students are reading at a second-grade level, while others are charging ahead to seventh-grade content. The devices help bridge the broad gap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Students] can use the device to do research, they can move at their own pace, they’re not waiting on the slower ones,” Harris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"JgXJjTnpApJcyvc6rCxddoXM6mfFtnTS\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris’ school uses an adaptive software called \u003ca href=\"http://strideacademy.com/\">Stride Academy\u003c/a> for reading, math and science. “They all like the sounds and animation,” Harris said. “They loved that because it was customized to them, no one else knew what they were doing.” Harris receives weekly updates on each student’s progress in the program, including whether they're just guessing, have clearly not understood concepts or if they're surpassing expectations. She can tailor her instruction to provide support to students who struggle and help the advanced students continue to challenge themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, a few of Harris’ fourth graders leveled up to reading \u003cem>Harry Potter\u003c/em>.

Instead, teachers began experimenting with technology to engage learners and allow them to have more ownership over their learning. Using student-owned devices has the added benefit of helping students to see their phones as learning tools that can be used for research at home. And while not all kids own smartphones or tablets to access the internet outside of school, many do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School districts that can afford it are opting to issue school-owned devices to students that stay at school.

Craighead has a predominantly African-American population and 95 percent of its students are eligible for free and reduced lunch. Harris has been steadily trying to integrate devices into her teaching practice, while being aware that kids and their families have different comfort levels with technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents were receptive to letting their children bring tablets from home, but don’t always understand the nature of the digital work. “Parents just wanted to see it in black and white,” Harris said, \"because some of my students are being raised by grandparents and they really didn't know what these digital assignments were.” Some grandparents didn't believe their students were doing their reading on their devices. To strike a balance, Harris does paper and pencil creative projects, along with digital ones. She also sends all information home in various formats so everyone feels informed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris has found that student-owned tablets -- cell phones aren't allowed by the district in elementary school -- are most helpful for increasing engagement, allowing students opportunities for creative expression and for giving her more information about when students understand a concept and when they’re struggling. Even though she teaches fourth grade, some students are reading at a second-grade level, while others are charging ahead to seventh-grade content. The devices help bridge the broad gap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Students] can use the device to do research, they can move at their own pace, they’re not waiting on the slower ones,” Harris said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris’ school uses an adaptive software called \u003ca href=\"http://strideacademy.com/\">Stride Academy\u003c/a> for reading, math and science. “They all like the sounds and animation,” Harris said. “They loved that because it was customized to them, no one else knew what they were doing.” Harris receives weekly updates on each student’s progress in the program, including whether they're just guessing, have clearly not understood concepts or if they're surpassing expectations. She can tailor her instruction to provide support to students who struggle and help the advanced students continue to challenge themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, a few of Harris’ fourth graders leveled up to reading \u003cem>Harry Potter\u003c/em>.

But students don’t always get the chance to use their devices, especially in low-income schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2014/07/the-struggles-and-realities-of-student-driven-learning-and-byod/\">previously reported\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewinternet.org/2013/02/28/how-teachers-are-using-technology-at-home-and-in-their-classrooms/\">2013 Pew study\u003c/a> revealed that only 35 percent of teachers at the lowest income schools allow their students to look up information on their mobile devices, as compared to 52 percent of teachers at wealthier schools. And while 70 percent of teachers working in high-income areas say their schools do a good job providing resources and support to effectively integrate technology into the classroom, only 50 percent of teachers in low-income areas agree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's not a lost cause -- the disparity \u003cem>can\u003c/em> be addressed, according to \u003ca href=\"http://uca.edu/teaching/facultystaff/michael-mills/\">Michael Mills\u003c/a>, assistant professor of teaching and learning at University of Central Arkansas, who trains in-service teachers and works in a seventh-grade classroom. Mills has spoken openly about how \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2013/03/for-low-income-kids-access-to-devices-could-be-the-equalizer/\">race and expectations may be playing into how teachers use devices\u003c/a> in the classroom. For him, this is a crucial issue, because without access to powerful tech use in school, kids who come from disadvantaged backgrounds will continue to fall behind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bottom line for any teacher: technology works best as an extension of what's already happening in class. At the recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.isteconference.org/2014/\" target=\"_blank\">ISTE conference\u003c/a>, Mills outlined some essential ideas for successfully leveraging the power of technology for learning, regardless of a school's income status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DEVELOP TRUST\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The kids who 'have' are going to keep having and the kids who 'have-not' are going to keep being over there,\" Mills said. He suggests the best way to build equitable classroom technology use is to create a culture of trust. That takes time, but Mills said teachers need to give students a chance to prove themselves before displaying mistrust. “Instead of automatically saying, 'I don’t trust you,' why not create opportunities where you can trust them,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To do that, Mills recommends developing engaging lessons that use technology in collaborative and creative ways. \"We've got to make sure the kids are doing the work, but we have to provide them with guidance,\" Mills said. The best way to make sure kids are on task is to move about the room and check on their work -- one of the oldest classroom management tools around -- but effective even in a high-tech classroom. \"Instead of relying on tech to be the policeman, cultivate a culture of responsibility,\" Mills said. \"You can’t fake that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Providing guidance on how devices can be used for learning is an essential role for teachers in this era. Despite their facility with the technology itself, kids need direction. \"The research says that if you hand kids a device, they aren't going to inherently use it for an educational purpose,\" Mills said. They need a teacher to guide them along that path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SHOW YOUR WORK\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Creating an environment of trust in the classroom extends beyond its walls and into the community. Not only will a transparent classroom make it easier to engage with parents, but it also helps the community come to grips with a different style of education from what they experienced as children. And being transparent about classroom practices opens up the door for more collaboration with colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If a teacher doesn't feel what they're doing in the classroom is strong enough to be seen by others, he or she probably shouldn't be doing it. \"If it's not good enough for everybody, it's not good enough for the kids,\" Mills said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"M5d333h0dzJz3s1vWoSNNFWRdVzK44E3\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SET GROUND RULES\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Technical issues with devices can be a headache, so setting some ground rules for device management helps mitigate some hiccups. Mills recommends making it clear that it is students' responsibility to bring their device to school charged and ready to go. Designating a spot on student desks or tables where devices go when they aren't being used for a specific assignment is also a great way to deter students from succumbing to distraction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Instead of relying on tech to be the policeman, cultivate a culture of responsibility.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>BE COMFORTABLE WITH DEVICE DIVERSITY \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is not bothered by students bringing a variety of types of devices, with varying levels of computing powers. It shouldn't matter if students are working in groups and sharing their devices. “We need to make sure students have individual tasks asked of them within each group,” Mills said. “The beauty of that is the kids don’t all have to have the same device.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is a firm believer that a powerful use of devices turns students into producers, not consumers of content. “The most important aspect of teaching is to give students an opportunity to create,” Mills said. Sometimes technology will be the perfect tool for that, but in other cases the wireless may give out, an app will go on the fritz or any number of other obstacles might arise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In those cases, have a back-up plan so the lesson and its creative energy isn't lost to the whims of malfunctioning technology. Mills described one project he planned for his class around \u003cem>The Diary of Anne Frank\u003c/em>. He wanted students to analyze primary and secondary sources, so he made QR codes to accompany various images relevant to the book. He put so much information into the codes that they didn't work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As an alternative, students researched topics on their phones and cut and paste relevant passages to match the images. In the end, the backup plan required more critical thinking and collaboration than the original project and students had a good time doing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ALLOW SPACE FOR COLLABORATION\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though many have lauded the benefits of one-to-one device initiatives, Mills isn't a proponent. \"I like a one-to-three [ratio] because it forces kids to collaborate more and the technology gives us an awesome way to facilitate collaboration,\" Mills said. \"We can’t let that laptop or iPad be the centerpiece of our instruction.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>FAVORITE APPS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is a fan of simple, creative tools that he can use in lots of different ways. He worries that too many apps provide little added-value to the classroom and believes teachers should carefully analyze how and why a new app will be used.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We really have to think about our instructional objective,” Mills said. \"What is it we need our students to do or know? Without that [focus] we become product marketers.\" The standard he sets for himself is to ask whether the activity has students creating, synthesizing and analyzing. If it does those three things, it’s probably worthwhile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills also suggests teachers try out new apps on the school network, with a student account before planning a lesson around them. Some apps are blocked, or require too much bandwidth for the wireless. He also says it’s important to read the terms of service for any new product. Tumblr, for example, says it is not appropriate for students under 13 -- important information for a seventh grade teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills has a go-to list of apps he uses regularly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.infuselearning.com/\">Infuse Learning\u003c/a>: This is a free, formative assessment tool. Teachers can ask students multiple choice or written answer questions to assess how well or poorly they are understanding concepts. The teacher can also hover over a student’s name to see how long he or she took to answer the question. If there are a lot of wrong answers, the teacher knows she probably didn't teach it well enough the first time and needs to rethink her approach.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://padlet.com/\">Padlet\u003c/a>: Mills uses this app like a class Twitter account or a poster board. It has both display options, although some devices won’t show the poster view. Students can collaborate on different \"notes\" and drag in multimedia, images and documents from other places.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Google Docs: Aside from the obvious use of Google Docs to collaborate on writing projects, Mills likes the sheer amount of information that can be uploaded onto this platform, allowing kids to work on it at the same time. In a lesson about point of view, Mills started a \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/sheets/about/\">Google Sheet\u003c/a> and gave each student a column. He asked each student to write down the significant words that demonstrated a literary character's point of view in their column and then took all of them and made a word map with \u003ca href=\"http://www.wordle.net/\">Wordle\u003c/a>. This sparked a vibrant discussion about the words that rose to the top. And it was easy to do the exercise again from a different character’s point of view. “The tech gave us an opportunity to have a conversation and to really compare and contrast,” Mills said. While it’s a simple exercise, there wouldn’t have been enough space on a whiteboard and it would have been much more time consuming.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Mills used\u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/trends/\"> Google Trends\u003c/a> to have students analyze who is more popular -- Jay Z or Beyonce. “What’s exciting is they start analyzing the graph instead of arguing about what they think they know,” Mills said. The quick Google Trend search got them talking about a topic they love from an academic point of view.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Another favorite tool is Instagram, which Mills often integrates into math class by having students photograph and share different shapes around town. In one high school project he even had students snap images of grammatical errors on signs in the community. “When students have to create something and put something out there, they work a lot harder,” Mills said. “If they know their peers are going to see it, they care.\" That doesn't mean teachers should share the results of formative assessment polling all the time.

But students don’t always get the chance to use their devices, especially in low-income schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2014/07/the-struggles-and-realities-of-student-driven-learning-and-byod/\">previously reported\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewinternet.org/2013/02/28/how-teachers-are-using-technology-at-home-and-in-their-classrooms/\">2013 Pew study\u003c/a> revealed that only 35 percent of teachers at the lowest income schools allow their students to look up information on their mobile devices, as compared to 52 percent of teachers at wealthier schools. And while 70 percent of teachers working in high-income areas say their schools do a good job providing resources and support to effectively integrate technology into the classroom, only 50 percent of teachers in low-income areas agree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it's not a lost cause -- the disparity \u003cem>can\u003c/em> be addressed, according to \u003ca href=\"http://uca.edu/teaching/facultystaff/michael-mills/\">Michael Mills\u003c/a>, assistant professor of teaching and learning at University of Central Arkansas, who trains in-service teachers and works in a seventh-grade classroom. Mills has spoken openly about how \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2013/03/for-low-income-kids-access-to-devices-could-be-the-equalizer/\">race and expectations may be playing into how teachers use devices\u003c/a> in the classroom. For him, this is a crucial issue, because without access to powerful tech use in school, kids who come from disadvantaged backgrounds will continue to fall behind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bottom line for any teacher: technology works best as an extension of what's already happening in class. At the recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.isteconference.org/2014/\" target=\"_blank\">ISTE conference\u003c/a>, Mills outlined some essential ideas for successfully leveraging the power of technology for learning, regardless of a school's income status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DEVELOP TRUST\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The kids who 'have' are going to keep having and the kids who 'have-not' are going to keep being over there,\" Mills said. He suggests the best way to build equitable classroom technology use is to create a culture of trust. That takes time, but Mills said teachers need to give students a chance to prove themselves before displaying mistrust. “Instead of automatically saying, 'I don’t trust you,' why not create opportunities where you can trust them,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To do that, Mills recommends developing engaging lessons that use technology in collaborative and creative ways. \"We've got to make sure the kids are doing the work, but we have to provide them with guidance,\" Mills said. The best way to make sure kids are on task is to move about the room and check on their work -- one of the oldest classroom management tools around -- but effective even in a high-tech classroom. \"Instead of relying on tech to be the policeman, cultivate a culture of responsibility,\" Mills said. \"You can’t fake that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Providing guidance on how devices can be used for learning is an essential role for teachers in this era. Despite their facility with the technology itself, kids need direction. \"The research says that if you hand kids a device, they aren't going to inherently use it for an educational purpose,\" Mills said. They need a teacher to guide them along that path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SHOW YOUR WORK\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Creating an environment of trust in the classroom extends beyond its walls and into the community. Not only will a transparent classroom make it easier to engage with parents, but it also helps the community come to grips with a different style of education from what they experienced as children. And being transparent about classroom practices opens up the door for more collaboration with colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If a teacher doesn't feel what they're doing in the classroom is strong enough to be seen by others, he or she probably shouldn't be doing it. \"If it's not good enough for everybody, it's not good enough for the kids,\" Mills said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SET GROUND RULES\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Technical issues with devices can be a headache, so setting some ground rules for device management helps mitigate some hiccups. Mills recommends making it clear that it is students' responsibility to bring their device to school charged and ready to go. Designating a spot on student desks or tables where devices go when they aren't being used for a specific assignment is also a great way to deter students from succumbing to distraction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Instead of relying on tech to be the policeman, cultivate a culture of responsibility.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>BE COMFORTABLE WITH DEVICE DIVERSITY \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is not bothered by students bringing a variety of types of devices, with varying levels of computing powers. It shouldn't matter if students are working in groups and sharing their devices. “We need to make sure students have individual tasks asked of them within each group,” Mills said. “The beauty of that is the kids don’t all have to have the same device.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is a firm believer that a powerful use of devices turns students into producers, not consumers of content. “The most important aspect of teaching is to give students an opportunity to create,” Mills said. Sometimes technology will be the perfect tool for that, but in other cases the wireless may give out, an app will go on the fritz or any number of other obstacles might arise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In those cases, have a back-up plan so the lesson and its creative energy isn't lost to the whims of malfunctioning technology. Mills described one project he planned for his class around \u003cem>The Diary of Anne Frank\u003c/em>. He wanted students to analyze primary and secondary sources, so he made QR codes to accompany various images relevant to the book. He put so much information into the codes that they didn't work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As an alternative, students researched topics on their phones and cut and paste relevant passages to match the images. In the end, the backup plan required more critical thinking and collaboration than the original project and students had a good time doing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ALLOW SPACE FOR COLLABORATION\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though many have lauded the benefits of one-to-one device initiatives, Mills isn't a proponent. \"I like a one-to-three [ratio] because it forces kids to collaborate more and the technology gives us an awesome way to facilitate collaboration,\" Mills said. \"We can’t let that laptop or iPad be the centerpiece of our instruction.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>FAVORITE APPS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills is a fan of simple, creative tools that he can use in lots of different ways. He worries that too many apps provide little added-value to the classroom and believes teachers should carefully analyze how and why a new app will be used.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We really have to think about our instructional objective,” Mills said. \"What is it we need our students to do or know? Without that [focus] we become product marketers.\" The standard he sets for himself is to ask whether the activity has students creating, synthesizing and analyzing. If it does those three things, it’s probably worthwhile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills also suggests teachers try out new apps on the school network, with a student account before planning a lesson around them. Some apps are blocked, or require too much bandwidth for the wireless. He also says it’s important to read the terms of service for any new product. Tumblr, for example, says it is not appropriate for students under 13 -- important information for a seventh grade teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills has a go-to list of apps he uses regularly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.infuselearning.com/\">Infuse Learning\u003c/a>: This is a free, formative assessment tool. Teachers can ask students multiple choice or written answer questions to assess how well or poorly they are understanding concepts. The teacher can also hover over a student’s name to see how long he or she took to answer the question. If there are a lot of wrong answers, the teacher knows she probably didn't teach it well enough the first time and needs to rethink her approach.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://padlet.com/\">Padlet\u003c/a>: Mills uses this app like a class Twitter account or a poster board. It has both display options, although some devices won’t show the poster view. Students can collaborate on different \"notes\" and drag in multimedia, images and documents from other places.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Google Docs: Aside from the obvious use of Google Docs to collaborate on writing projects, Mills likes the sheer amount of information that can be uploaded onto this platform, allowing kids to work on it at the same time. In a lesson about point of view, Mills started a \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/sheets/about/\">Google Sheet\u003c/a> and gave each student a column. He asked each student to write down the significant words that demonstrated a literary character's point of view in their column and then took all of them and made a word map with \u003ca href=\"http://www.wordle.net/\">Wordle\u003c/a>. This sparked a vibrant discussion about the words that rose to the top. And it was easy to do the exercise again from a different character’s point of view. “The tech gave us an opportunity to have a conversation and to really compare and contrast,” Mills said. While it’s a simple exercise, there wouldn’t have been enough space on a whiteboard and it would have been much more time consuming.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Mills used\u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/trends/\"> Google Trends\u003c/a> to have students analyze who is more popular -- Jay Z or Beyonce. “What’s exciting is they start analyzing the graph instead of arguing about what they think they know,” Mills said. The quick Google Trend search got them talking about a topic they love from an academic point of view.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Another favorite tool is Instagram, which Mills often integrates into math class by having students photograph and share different shapes around town. In one high school project he even had students snap images of grammatical errors on signs in the community. “When students have to create something and put something out there, they work a lot harder,” Mills said. “If they know their peers are going to see it, they care.\" That doesn't mean teachers should share the results of formative assessment polling all the time. Mills strongly believes that kids have been told too often that they aren’t smart, so being shamed in front of the whole class doesn’t motivate them. Instead, teachers should try to be sensitive to students’ feelings.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, Mills sees BYOD as a great way to engage kids through the tools that they use everyday. “My 'nefarious' purpose is for kids to see the device in their pocket as a learning device,\" he said. And if they learn some ways their phones can help them navigate life beyond Snapchat and selfies, that’s a good thing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/mindshift/37006/how-to-get-the-most-out-of-student-owned-devices-in-any-classroom","authors":["234"],"categories":["mindshift_195"],"tags":["mindshift_484","mindshift_20590","mindshift_20906","mindshift_20714","mindshift_252","mindshift_1040"],"featImg":"mindshift_37232","label":"mindshift"},"mindshift_33844":{"type":"posts","id":"mindshift_33844","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"mindshift","id":"33844","score":null,"sort":[1392051915000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"think-big-how-to-jumpstart-tech-use-in-low-income-schools","title":"Think Big: How to Jumpstart Tech Use In Low-Income Schools","publishDate":1392051915,"format":"aside","headTitle":"MindShift | KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"mindshift"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_33935\" class=\"wp-caption center\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-33935\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/wp-content/uploads/sites/23/2014/02/cellphone1-620x344.jpg\" alt=\"cellphone1-620x344\" width=\"620\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2014/02/cellphone1-620x344.jpg 620w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2014/02/cellphone1-620x344-400x222.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2014/02/cellphone1-620x344-320x178.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"> \u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"dropcap-serif\">The challenges of rural schools are many of the same (though not all) that low-income public schools face across the country: inadequate access to technology and broadband, tight budgets, and educators who have not been trained in using technology in meaningful ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But these hurdles did not deter \u003ca href=\"http://daisydyerduerr.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Daisy Dyer Duerr\u003c/a>, Prek-12 Principal of St. Paul Public Schools in St. Paul, Arkansas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every child deserves an amazing education no matter who they are, no matter where they come from,” said Duerr, who was recently named National Digital Principal. She's been working hard to bring new devices and related pedagogy around technology use to teachers. “If you don’t have relationships you can have every bit of tech in the world and it won’t matter,” Duerr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s how Duerr brought new ideas and devices to her 225 students and started to transform student attitudes about their futures and teacher attitudes about what a rural public education can offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. JUST START\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not about what you have, it’s about being awesome,” Duerr said. When Duerr started at St. Paul Schools three years ago, the school culture did not encourage risk taking. The technology available to teachers was limited to a few smartboards, two computer labs with shared PC desktops and a laptop cart with 10 MacBooks still in their boxes. Technology wasn’t part of the school culture and teachers hadn’t been trained on anything. Duerr started out by training them with the tools she had available and started writing grants to raise the money for more updated technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. DEVELOP A SHARED VISION\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duerr worked alongside her teachers to create a shared vision of using technology to enhance classroom instruction, provide learning opportunities that wouldn’t otherwise be available to students and to deepen student-teacher relationships. “They had to have ownership of that learning and they had to share with each other,” Duerr said. “Sometimes as educators we aren’t the best sharers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together the teaching staff came up with ideas about how to bring technology into the classroom and set a goal of using tech support once a week in class. They documented the use and how it improved learning. Teachers asked Duerr to hold them accountable to those goals as she visited and observed classrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"42d98ae44c0d1eb22746131649286df8\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One teacher set the goal of using technology to engage students more meaningfully with key vocabulary. She used Educreations to have students draw and create word connections. That activity has become a weekly fixture in her classroom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another teacher -- prone to lecturing at the front of the room -- wanted to try and give up control. She planned one day a week for students to design the lesson themselves or gave them project work. She could have let go sooner, but technology gave her the impetus and willingness to try it out, said Duerr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. WRITE GRANTS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Not everyone can be a one-to-one school, but that's not what it has to be for you to do amazing things with kids,\" Duerr said. She's been aiming for a one-to-three ratio and has gradually applied for grants to bring more devices and better broadband access to her school. Her fundraising has paid off. She was able to give all her teachers iPads in June and after one professional development day to learn the basics, sent them home for the summer to experiment. “I just said, 'Come back in August and be on fire with using this technology to teach,'” Duerr said. She also fundraised for two laptop carts to offer more opportunities for teachers to engage with the tactics they were excited to try.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BYOD\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 80 and 88 percent of St. Paul Schools students receive free or reduced lunch (the range reflects different accounting for elementary and high school students). Still, a poll of students showed that three quarters of 7-12th graders had mobile phones and half of those were smartphones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are connected, socio-economic barriers be darned,” Duerr said. “People are connected and we don’t need to cut off our nose to spite our face. We need to use what we have.” She’s adamant that letting students \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/byod/\" target=\"_blank\">bring their own devices\u003c/a> to school gives them a chance to have a global education that the meager resources of the school wouldn't otherwise be able to supply to everyone. Some students at the school have never left the county, let alone the state, and online access has allowed them to go on \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/03/five-awesome-virtual-field-trips-for-students-of-all-ages/\" target=\"_blank\">virtual field trips\u003c/a>, talk to classrooms in vastly different places and explore what makes them curious. It has expanded their experience of what the world can offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. CONSIDER HOTSPOTS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When families in the \u003ca href=\"http://eagle.nwsc.k12.ar.us/\" target=\"_blank\">Huntsville School District\u003c/a> were surveyed in 2012, only 10 percent of students had access to the internet at home, a function of high poverty and geography. After getting basic technology into schools, Duerr is turning her attention to mobile hotspots for students so that they can use devices at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6. INVEST IN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can’t just throw it up out there and expect it to work,\" Duerr said. \"Having tech and using it successfully are two very different things.\" She spends a lot of time discussing the benefits and drawbacks with her teachers, giving them training, freeing them up to help one another implement in the classroom and creating safe places to talk about what works and what doesn't so her teachers learn from one another.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Technology has become a motivator and a tool for empowerment at St. Paul Schools. “I believe bringing in this technology was a huge boost to the self-worth of our school and community,” Duerr wrote in an email. It has galvanized teachers to become leaders, to show one another tips and to take pride in the school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7. TRY SOMETHING NEW\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For one hour every week, fourth-through-twelfth graders at St. Paul get to work on a passion project. It's called \u003ca href=\"http://www.geniushour.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Genius Hour\u003c/a>, an idea that is taking root across the country on the heels of research about passion-based learning and the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/maker-movement/\">Maker Movement\u003c/a>. Participation in Genius Hour is based on attendance and good behavior and kids look forward to it all week, Duerr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Genius Hour started, absences at the school are down 25 percent and Duerr sees a third fewer students for disciplinary action. Students are working on projects that include gourmet cooking, blogging, learning guitar, even tracking monarch butterflies around the world.

She's been working hard to bring new devices and related pedagogy around technology use to teachers. “If you don’t have relationships you can have every bit of tech in the world and it won’t matter,” Duerr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s how Duerr brought new ideas and devices to her 225 students and started to transform student attitudes about their futures and teacher attitudes about what a rural public education can offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. JUST START\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not about what you have, it’s about being awesome,” Duerr said. When Duerr started at St. Paul Schools three years ago, the school culture did not encourage risk taking. The technology available to teachers was limited to a few smartboards, two computer labs with shared PC desktops and a laptop cart with 10 MacBooks still in their boxes. Technology wasn’t part of the school culture and teachers hadn’t been trained on anything. Duerr started out by training them with the tools she had available and started writing grants to raise the money for more updated technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. DEVELOP A SHARED VISION\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duerr worked alongside her teachers to create a shared vision of using technology to enhance classroom instruction, provide learning opportunities that wouldn’t otherwise be available to students and to deepen student-teacher relationships. “They had to have ownership of that learning and they had to share with each other,” Duerr said. “Sometimes as educators we aren’t the best sharers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Together the teaching staff came up with ideas about how to bring technology into the classroom and set a goal of using tech support once a week in class. They documented the use and how it improved learning. Teachers asked Duerr to hold them accountable to those goals as she visited and observed classrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One teacher set the goal of using technology to engage students more meaningfully with key vocabulary. She used Educreations to have students draw and create word connections. That activity has become a weekly fixture in her classroom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another teacher -- prone to lecturing at the front of the room -- wanted to try and give up control. She planned one day a week for students to design the lesson themselves or gave them project work. She could have let go sooner, but technology gave her the impetus and willingness to try it out, said Duerr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. WRITE GRANTS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Not everyone can be a one-to-one school, but that's not what it has to be for you to do amazing things with kids,\" Duerr said. She's been aiming for a one-to-three ratio and has gradually applied for grants to bring more devices and better broadband access to her school. Her fundraising has paid off. She was able to give all her teachers iPads in June and after one professional development day to learn the basics, sent them home for the summer to experiment. “I just said, 'Come back in August and be on fire with using this technology to teach,'” Duerr said. She also fundraised for two laptop carts to offer more opportunities for teachers to engage with the tactics they were excited to try.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BYOD\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 80 and 88 percent of St. Paul Schools students receive free or reduced lunch (the range reflects different accounting for elementary and high school students). Still, a poll of students showed that three quarters of 7-12th graders had mobile phones and half of those were smartphones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are connected, socio-economic barriers be darned,” Duerr said. “People are connected and we don’t need to cut off our nose to spite our face. We need to use what we have.” She’s adamant that letting students \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/byod/\" target=\"_blank\">bring their own devices\u003c/a> to school gives them a chance to have a global education that the meager resources of the school wouldn't otherwise be able to supply to everyone. Some students at the school have never left the county, let alone the state, and online access has allowed them to go on \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/03/five-awesome-virtual-field-trips-for-students-of-all-ages/\" target=\"_blank\">virtual field trips\u003c/a>, talk to classrooms in vastly different places and explore what makes them curious. It has expanded their experience of what the world can offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. CONSIDER HOTSPOTS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When families in the \u003ca href=\"http://eagle.nwsc.k12.ar.us/\" target=\"_blank\">Huntsville School District\u003c/a> were surveyed in 2012, only 10 percent of students had access to the internet at home, a function of high poverty and geography. After getting basic technology into schools, Duerr is turning her attention to mobile hotspots for students so that they can use devices at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6. INVEST IN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can’t just throw it up out there and expect it to work,\" Duerr said. \"Having tech and using it successfully are two very different things.\" She spends a lot of time discussing the benefits and drawbacks with her teachers, giving them training, freeing them up to help one another implement in the classroom and creating safe places to talk about what works and what doesn't so her teachers learn from one another.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Technology has become a motivator and a tool for empowerment at St. Paul Schools. “I believe bringing in this technology was a huge boost to the self-worth of our school and community,” Duerr wrote in an email. It has galvanized teachers to become leaders, to show one another tips and to take pride in the school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>7. TRY SOMETHING NEW\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For one hour every week, fourth-through-twelfth graders at St. Paul get to work on a passion project. It's called \u003ca href=\"http://www.geniushour.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Genius Hour\u003c/a>, an idea that is taking root across the country on the heels of research about passion-based learning and the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/maker-movement/\">Maker Movement\u003c/a>. Participation in Genius Hour is based on attendance and good behavior and kids look forward to it all week, Duerr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Genius Hour started, absences at the school are down 25 percent and Duerr sees a third fewer students for disciplinary action. Students are working on projects that include gourmet cooking, blogging, learning guitar, even tracking monarch butterflies around the world. The project has also brought community members into the school to volunteer, helping to create a vibrant school community.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/mindshift/33844/think-big-how-to-jumpstart-tech-use-in-low-income-schools","authors":["234"],"categories":["mindshift_195"],"tags":["mindshift_20590","mindshift_20906","mindshift_1040","mindshift_20627"],"featImg":"mindshift_33935","label":"mindshift"},"mindshift_33197":{"type":"posts","id":"mindshift_33197","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"mindshift","id":"33197","score":null,"sort":[1389117745000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"how-byod-programs-can-fuel-inquiry-learning","title":"How BYOD Programs Can Fuel Inquiry Learning","publishDate":1389117745,"format":"aside","headTitle":"MindShift | KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"mindshift"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_33321\" class=\"wp-caption center\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-large wp-image-33321\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/wp-content/uploads/sites/23/2014/01/cellphone-e1389117584301-640x355.jpg\" alt=\"cellphone\" width=\"640\" height=\"355\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"> \u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"dropcap-serif\">Launching a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/byod/\">Bring Your Own Device \u003c/a>program can be both exhilarating and scary.

The profile helps guide all approaches to learning in the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">“What we are trying to do is get to transformative use of tech, where kids are doing things they wouldn’t be able to do without the tech.\" \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Kids already know how to use their devices, but they don’t know how to learn with their devices,” Clark said in an edWeb webinar. It’s the teacher's role to help them discover how to connect to content, one another and learning with a device that they may have only used for texting and Facebook previously. “It’s about the kids being empowered in the classroom to make decisions about the ways that they are learning,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To achieve that level of decision making, school culture has to shift to one that encourages an on-going conversation, often filtered through devices. “Anytime I see students watching a video in the classroom I expect them to be back-channeling,” Clark said. Back-channeling is an ongoing conversation on Twitter or an app like Socrative about what students are watching.

He recommends using big picture questions to frame ideas and help students identify the many smaller questions within the topic. “I expect that if I go to a student and ask them what’s the big question you are working on they’ll be able to tell me and talk about,” Clark said. “There’s not just one right answer.

Often that means work can be turned in more quickly and graded more efficiently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark estimates that about 10 percent of the time, Forsyth teachers are able to facilitate a transformative learning experience. “Trying to get towards transforming helps us frame the conversation with our teachers as we provide feedback about the kinds of lessons they’re planning,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like many school districts, Forsyth was concerned about how its students would use the internet once they had access all the time. The district started out with a draft policy that required schools to filter internet for things like pornography and gambling, and required certain uses. Schools could then modify that draft for their own needs. But over time, most schools came to just expect responsibility because kids weren’t misusing the privilege.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was this respect that grew out of having BYOT and working together in the classroom,” Clark said. The policies soon shifted away from all the things students couldn’t do and became a short list of things students should do. This shift allows teachers to address issues of digital citizenship like privacy, respecting others' work, and standing up to improper uses on a daily basis as they arise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LEARNING ALONGSIDE STUDENTS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At the beginning have the kids share how they already know how to use their technology,” Clark said. “Let them decide what apps they want to use to show what they know. The teacher doesn’t need to know all the technology.” He said some of his teachers only know the three to five apps that they find useful, but they allow their students to use whatever helps them achieve their learning goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The teacher is not always directing everything; they have to learn how to learn alongside the students,” Clark said. “Teachers need to feel comfortable sharing that learning with the students and asking for help on the devices.” Many kids love to show off what they know and are good teachers too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most important ways the school can support its teachers in the transition to BYOD is to provide training on how to manage the class when devices are involved. One easy way to make it more manageable is to rearrange the classroom to allow more small group work or individual exploration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DEVICE AND ACCESS EQUITY\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Clark, the most powerful attribute of BYOD programs is the ability to extend learning beyond the school day. But it can only work if all kids have access to the same opportunities. Twenty percent of Forsyth students receive free and reduced lunch. The district was worried about equity, but jumped in knowing that not every student had a device and that some parents wouldn’t want to send their child to school with a device even if they owned one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools in the district have found that as some kids bring personal devices, the technology in school should be more available for those who don’t bring one. Schools have a centralized location for laptops, rather than a cart or lab, so students can grab a laptop when they need it. “If they’re using that laptop in the classroom that has so much power and another kid is using a smartphone that doesn’t have quite that power or screen real estate, it requires collaboration,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it allows cash-strapped schools more flexibility. “Since we’re not purchasing handheld devices we can use title funds to buy district devices,” Clark said. Schools have also asked parents to donate old smartphones that can be used on the wi-fi network without a data plan. And, in some cases, schools have bought devices for kids whose families really couldn’t afford one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bigger equity question remained around access to the internet. One strategy Forsyth has employed is to pull the community into the effort. Businesses with free wifi put a sticker in their windows and the district offers a directory listing of those resources. Many businesses have risen to that challenge and now even some dental offices offer free wifi, so kids know they can work online while waiting for an appointment. The district also bought Kajeet smartspots to send home with students who had no internet access in their houses.\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":" The opportunity to extend access to technology in the classroom and at home is enticing, but school districts can get hung up on important details like providing a strong network, making sure each child has a device, and questions about around distraction.

The teacher doesn’t need to know all the technology.” He said some of his teachers only know the three to five apps that they find useful, but they allow their students to use whatever helps them achieve their learning goals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The teacher is not always directing everything; they have to learn how to learn alongside the students,” Clark said. “Teachers need to feel comfortable sharing that learning with the students and asking for help on the devices.” Many kids love to show off what they know and are good teachers too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most important ways the school can support its teachers in the transition to BYOD is to provide training on how to manage the class when devices are involved. One easy way to make it more manageable is to rearrange the classroom to allow more small group work or individual exploration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DEVICE AND ACCESS EQUITY\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Clark, the most powerful attribute of BYOD programs is the ability to extend learning beyond the school day. But it can only work if all kids have access to the same opportunities. Twenty percent of Forsyth students receive free and reduced lunch. The district was worried about equity, but jumped in knowing that not every student had a device and that some parents wouldn’t want to send their child to school with a device even if they owned one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools in the district have found that as some kids bring personal devices, the technology in school should be more available for those who don’t bring one. Schools have a centralized location for laptops, rather than a cart or lab, so students can grab a laptop when they need it. “If they’re using that laptop in the classroom that has so much power and another kid is using a smartphone that doesn’t have quite that power or screen real estate, it requires collaboration,” Clark said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it allows cash-strapped schools more flexibility. “Since we’re not purchasing handheld devices we can use title funds to buy district devices,” Clark said. Schools have also asked parents to donate old smartphones that can be used on the wi-fi network without a data plan. And, in some cases, schools have bought devices for kids whose families really couldn’t afford one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bigger equity question remained around access to the internet. One strategy Forsyth has employed is to pull the community into the effort. Businesses with free wifi put a sticker in their windows and the district offers a directory listing of those resources. Many businesses have risen to that challenge and now even some dental offices offer free wifi, so kids know they can work online while waiting for an appointment. The district also bought Kajeet smartspots to send home with students who had no internet access in their houses.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/mindshift/33197/how-byod-programs-can-fuel-inquiry-learning","authors":["234"],"categories":["mindshift_195"],"tags":["mindshift_20590","mindshift_20906","mindshift_1040","mindshift_797"],"featImg":"mindshift_33321","label":"mindshift"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
