  • the kids are driving the learning, from the design of the school and the curriculum to the decision making around school policy and more. It’s one of those inquiry-based learning environments where the moment you step into it you just feel something different. Different spaces. Different colors. Different conversations. Different stuff up on the walls.

International study on pedagogy and ICT | Lunchbox

    • Findings:



      1. Teacher practice can become more 21st century oriented when ICT is used (implication: ICT can be used as a lever for pedagogical change).
      2. Students’ ICT-using learning activities are more strongly 21st century oriented than other activities.
      3. Perceived impact by teachers of ICT use on students was largely positive.
      4. This impact depends on how, but not how often, ICT is used.
      5. When the teaching is ‘traditional’, teachers perceived no significant correlation with the extent of any impact on students’ outcomes, except ICT skills.
      6. When the teaching has a lifelong learning and connectedness orientation, teachers perceived significant correlations with all positive learning outcomes, with the highest correlation shown for collaboration and inquiry skills.
      7. Positive support measures were: professional development for teachers (priority: pedagogical ICT competence), leadership development in schools (including a vision for ICT use to support lifelong learning), technical and pedagogical support for ICT use, and infrastructure and support staff time.
