B PEDAGOGY
Impact2 study (evidence of higher grades
for MFL using ICT)
Learner Tool:
A multimedia suite with regular
entitlement for all students with
independent control
independent feedback
independent learning
Resource sharing – list of headings
Go to Becta site and search for ImpaCT2 (featured in
A-Z list of publications)
http://www.becta.org.uk/research/research.cfm?sectio
n=1&id=539
Teacher Tool:
Use ICT in the classroom for whole-class teaching
Use a data projector to enhance teacher-led wholeclass teaching - talking about language - sharing
language
Use individual whiteboards to ensure GENUINE
interactivity
http://www.alllondon.org.uk/shared_resources.htm#MANAGEMEN
T
C SCHOOL MANAGEMENT
ISSUES
Key Questions
How will this be managed?
How much time do we need?
How can we sure equal curriculum
entitlement?
What hardware resources do we need?
What technical support do we need?
How will we plan financing (incl
replacement)
How shall we manage the ‘classroom’?
How do we maintain good order in the
room?
Do we use target language?
How do we monitor and evaluate
progress / impact?
What training do we need?
What is our ICT acceptable use policy?
Hardware + Management software
Powerpoint can act as an OHP!:
use of show/no show + keys
Bluetooth Graphics Tablet Pen Tablet CTE-630BT
Bluetooth Graphics Tablet Genee Slate THE ONE I AM USING
CURRENTLY
Software management system NetSupport
Need for clear management structure / accountability
Plan timetable for maximum use of facilities
Plan schemes of work and share electronic resources
Laptop + data projector minimum for all if possible
(not just one lucky teacher)
See below for links
Cost in technician support (say 1:100 computers)
Suggest plan for replacement every 5 years
