Chapter 4- List Three Learning Preferences by Digital Learners and How They Would Be Incorporated in the Classroom
1) Network simultaneously with others- As a math teacher, I will use networking with other students to enhance problem solving. Whether sharing ideas on Twitter or Facebook or Edmodo, students can posts ideas, hints, or success while trying to collectively solve a word problem, or a logic problem, or a multi-step assignment.
2) Instant gratification with immediate and deferred rewards- I will use texting or ipads or itouch/ipods to give immediate feedback on problems taken on tests or quizzes. I will be able to show averages and points needed to a student is always aware of his/her standing in my class.
3)Receiving information quickly from multiple multimedia sources- I will use ipads (if available) to expand on classroom instruction. I will allow students to use their ipod/itouch/cell phone to interact with each other, sharing ideas and answers to problems posed in class. I would love to bring in video games that would strengthen math skills and content that is currently being covered (my kids have the apps and games for the lower grades, I just need to do the research to find those that are appropriate for the secondary level!)
