Digital Learning Spaces

Digital Learning Spaces

In my opinion I think that the good learn space have to have these points to improve the students skills and provide them with all knowledges in school environment, these point are:

·         Effective: Provides many materials that are dealt with in manual work and are explored ..

·         Elasticity: Provides multiple options for: learning experiences, ways to form groups of children, and learning space.

·         Interactive: Adults and children discuss and ask questions and discuss the following among them.

·         Resource-rich: Materials that encourage children to think, solve problems, respond and innovate.

·         Respectful: Accepts different beliefs, perspectives and abilities in a partnership-based relationship.

·         Collaborative: multiple roles for all.

I think University of Akron for example, have provided these factors for their students beside the electronic ways either Brightspace or social networks. In addition, google for example have offered Google apps to help learner such as Google classroom.

Possible Challenges

The main challenge is the language because I am not a native speaker, so I have to write more and know more words with its spelling. The other challenge is the time, with all the classes I spend too much time translate and correct the mistakes, so it takes a lot of my time.

Digital Citizenship

Digital Citizenship is a concept that helps teachers, technology leaders and parents understand what students / children / technology users should use appropriately. Where digital citizenship is not just an educational tool, it is much larger than that where it is a way to prepare students using technology for a true technological community. And to address the students 'and adults' abuse of technology.

In my digital life I often do not share content that may cause me a problem despite the many temptations in the internet sea. I used this digital world mostly in education and job, so I did not try to hurt any user on the net. I realize that the Internet is now a real world full of good people and bad people. Therefore, I advise my students and family to exercise caution while using the Internet regardless of the program used.

Blended Learning

In the class of Instructional Technology  we use the blended learning through ourselves and through Brightspace that University  offered it for students, in contrast, the ineffective ways just workgroups.

I believe that the blended learning now is one of most way that help students to improve their skills and get the maximum benefits from their subjects that they learned it in school. This kind of learn depends on tools of technology such as, personal computer, smart devices This kind of learning gives many opportunities to students to choose the right way to learn. Student can work alone or in work group, also students have all day to keep learning with their teachers through the internet, get feedback about their learning and grades. Teachers can assist students all the time through blended learning. Parents can monitor their kid’s skills, grades and connect with school.

The most striking thing that I took from Stacy's presentation was when she defines the blended learning and how can student control their time, place, path and pace. The models that she mentioned were very clear and it help with blended learning, also she described the variety drivers of blended learning very well. She covered most details Mindsets, qualities, adaptive skills and technical skill. I think it will effect on my learning, because I will follow all the blended learning to have most abilities and skill that help improve my self during my educational journey.

The Cool Tool that I explained it in the last blog about Nearpod is very related with Blended Learning because it depend on the learn from any place, time, and devices. Visit my blog about Nearpod http://salehmohammad3.blogspot.com/2018/02/cool-tools.html.
