The purpose of the following study was to examine the impact of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Science classrooms of students with Learning Disabilities. Teachers were positive about the learning benefits and design of the Science curriculum. Students were more critical but still positive about these features. Learning Science has both Cognitive and affective implications for students with LD.From a constructivist perspective, the process of learning is viewed as an active construction of knowledge rather than a passive reception of information.ICT provides cognitively engaging and motivating instructional tools for individualizing the mode of delivery , developing special tutors, using metaphors as instructions, Cross curricular Connections in science, reducing the cognitive load on working memory and motivating the students to stay on the same task.
This paper discusses the implementation of the Tri–Squared Test as one of many advanced statistical measures used to verify and validate the outcomes of an initial study on academic professional’s perspectives on the use, success, and viability of 9th Grade Freshman Academies, Centers, and Center Models. The initial research investigation published in iManager’s Journal on School Educational Technology determined that academician’s view these types of academic programs as positive solutions that aid in the retention and projected completion of High School minority “At–Risk” students. This advanced approach to data analysis is a transformative mixed methods research design that involves the in–depth comparison of the initial research qualitative and quantitative outcomes and establishes the validity and reliability of the researcher’s instrument.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of augmentative communication (AAC), specifically a Flip ‘n Talk device, with a preschool student with developmental delays. Also, during data collection he was also being evaluated to determine if he had autism (ASD). The ability to functionally requesting assistance and to functionally request the attention of individuals such as teachers, instructional assistants, and later peers was the focus of this study. A multiple baseline design was employed to evaluate the use of AAC across asking assistance or seeking attention. . The results of this study suggested that AAC was an effective way to teach functional communication to our participant.
With the aim of constructing a Student Time Management Scale (STMS), the initial version was administered and data were collected from 523 standard eleventh students. (Mean age = 15.64). The data obtained were subjected to Reliability and Factor analysis using PASW Statistical software version 18. From 42 items 14 were dropped, resulting in the retention of 28 items on final version. The scale had a Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficient of 0.885. Factor analysis revealed that the items on final version loaded on 4 factors, which accounted for 39.419% of the total scale variance. The factors were Scheduling Prioritizing, Planning Goal Setting Reviewing Record Keeping and Organizing Controlling of 7 items each and whose Cronbachs Alpha reliability coefficients were estimated to be 0.691, 0.697, 0.707 and 0.685 respectively. Students and teachers can use this scale for self development and guidance respectively. (Contain 3 tables with 8 references).
Mobile learning is a kind of learning that takes place via a portable handheld electronic device. It also refers to learning via other kinds of mobile devices such as tablet computers, net-books and digital readers. The objective of mobile learning is to provide the learner the ability to assimilate learning anywhere and at anytime. Mobile devices can be used not only to convey information but also can be used as modern comprehension. In present days mobile learning focus on the distance learning through mobile devices. Progression in mobile communication skill will push more educational atmosphere in which the interactive society is interested. The term mobile learning is a much more recent modification, motivated by mobile communications technology and modelled on expressions such as electronic learning, which refers more generally to learning and teaching supported by computers and other electronic devices. The investigator used the survey method to determine the development of global trends of mobile learning in modern research practice as a learning style. The investigator has used two tools for the present study. They are Mobile Learning Questionnaire and Personal data sheet. The major objective of this paper is to establish the progress of mobile learning as a learning style among student teachers and find the correlation between mobile learning and academic achievement among student teachers. The major hypothesis of this paper is there is no significant difference between mobile phone users and others in mobile learning as a learning style among student teachers. Also there is no significant correlation between mobile learning and academic achievement among student teachers. The major finding of this paper is there is significant difference between mobile phone users and others in mobile learning as a learning style among student teachers and there is significant correlation between mobile learning and academic achievement among student teachers. That is, the student teachers who are using mobile device are better than others in mobile learning as a learning style. Also the mobile learning and academic achievement have high correlation in the learning of student teachers. It is concluded that mobile phones increases learning paradigms and also the inventory related to learning.
Most people believe that our schools and colleges are failing to teach kids and youngsters in the 21st century skills they will need in order to succeed in the future (Rachna Rathore 2009). Even as the price of technology continues to drop, computers keep getting faster, and nearly all teens are exploring online social networking, schools have not only fallen behind other countries, but administrators have fallen behind of their own students. Communication technology, particularly real-time and collaborative online communities, represents an enormous draw for teens. Doctors no longer use 19th century practices on their patients; likewise educators have a duty to incorporate modern technology into the classroom. The power to harness multimedia, Blogs, Forums, Chat Rooms and other Web 2.0 technology, safely, for educational pursuits, is now in your hands (Starkman, Neal 2007). The aim of the study is to find out the level of “PG STUDENTS PERCEPTIONS OF THE PEDAGOGICAL BENEFITS OF WEB 2.0 APPLICATIONS’’. The investigator used a survey method for doing this research. The investigator used the self prepared questionnaire for collecting the data. The investigator has been collected 240 samples in Thoothukudi District, Tamilnadu using random sampling technique. The investigator has been used percentage analysis, t-test and chi-square test for analyzing the data. The findings of the study were most of the PG students did not familiar with the web 2.0 tools and have a positive perception towards the pedagogical benefits of web 2.0 applications. There is no significant difference in the mean scores of perceptions towards pedagogical benefits of web 2.0 applications among the postgraduate students with respect to their Gender, course of study and locality of the institution.
