Synopsis
Educate 1-to-1 is a book that brings together five veterans of mobile learning in order that their overlapping expertise and experience can help other schools. It aims to simplify, demystify and make it just plain easier to achieve the impact they have seen in their institutions through the discerning application of 1-to-1. According to BESA’s 2013 report , 57% of Primaries and 75% of Secondaries plan on implementing a one-device-per-child strategy in the next few years and for all of them, the difference between success and failure will be the quality of advice they have access to. Mobile learning, deployed in a 1-to-1 model, can have an enormous impact on learning and teaching in a range of contexts, but only if designed and implemented well: “This book is about technology leadership, leadership that is eternally grounded in what we know about effective learning and teaching, with the skepticism required to apply technology only where it accelerates, deepens, adds value or makes the previously impossible possible.” Adam Webster “Successful technology projects in schools almost always rest on the quality of leadership and implementation (including training), and almost never on the quality of the technology.” Dominic Norrish The book explores how technology can improve well-understood educational processes: “The ‘perfect’ workflow should provide a seamless pathway between student and teacher that enables feedback and progress to be meaningful, effective and rapid.” Daniel Edwards “By zooming in on the different learning affordances, rather than applying a wide lens that tends to view technology as a separate entity and not an intrinsic aspect of teaching and learning today, we can begin to identify proven strategies that help us draw a route map for the integration of mobile technology into the daily business of teaching and learning, thus maximising its potential in education” José Picardo
