Classroom Organisation - Transformative
Classroom Organisation concerns the effect that ICT has on your classroom layout, design, management, structure and format.
Typically at the transformative level you have removed the boundaries of your classroom walls. You are empowering students to choose how, where and when to use technology in a way that maximises the use of resources and the learning potential of the individual.
To help you reach your ePotential.....why not...
- Assist participating teachers in assessing their technology skills and knowledge through undertaking the e-Potential ICT Capabilities Survey and then develop an ICT professional learning plan.
- Establish and sustain student autonomy in using ICT as you allow them to explore and expand their interests and take on the role of experts who train and support other staff and students in the use of available and new software and hardware. Set up a Student Management Team or allow your class to become Network Assistants.
- Assist teachers to create a learning environment which supports independence, inter-dependence and self-motivation in students. (eg. Students rotate to stations, work individually or in teams etc.)
