What do you think of this
picture?
Which words come to your
mind?
And what do
you think
about the
classroom of
the future?
What are your
first
associations?
What should learning and
teaching look like in future?
What about fun? Asking questions?
Experimenting? Exploring?
What about the motivation to learn?
Does Technology Change
Education?
If technology changes education it serve its purpose.
Changes and further development both education and
learning is bound to be an ongoing task.

Theories
Behaviorism: Learning through reinforcement Teacher provides input to the learner Black Box, drill and practice
Cognitivism: Active information processing, thinking, problem solving, situated cognition, knowledge, tutorials
Constructivism: Authentic learning situations, learning in groups, self-directed, problem-based learning, simulation

Synchronisation of required Apps, Projecter, Printer,
Headset
Support by the management/ headmaster/ mistress

A summary of Main Findings
Framework for Tablets in schools
Financial aspect: which tablet should be used, who
will buy and manage the tablets?
„Bring Your Own Device“ = personalised learning
Teacher needed introduction to tablets not the
students

A summary of Main Findings
The Learning Scenario = Constructivism
The scenario is project-based and interdisciplinary
Learning by doing
iPads are used for desk research, for drill and practice
and to create presentation
Clear division of labour is needed
T.Jadin, MEDEAnet Webinar 14.11.2013 Seite 20
A summary of Main Findings
The Learning Scenario = Constructivism
Self-directed learning will be facilitated
More individual, personalised learning is possible
Students are motivated to learn and work
Teachers are rather coaches than instructors, but that
is challenging. Shift in teacher identity and the way
how learning happens.
