10 Objectives Objectives OVERVIEW: Demystify the technology talkOVERVIEW: Demystify the technology talk Explore useful hardware and software Examine educational strategies for its use in synchronous and asynchronous education View an example of PowerPoint as a quick and easy asynchronous m-learning tool OBJECTIVES: At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to: Select appropriate iPad hardware and software for PA student educational use Set up a functional learning environment for synchronous and asynchronous learning environments

11 Geek Speak Geek Speak 3G 3rd Generation or International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 standards for wide-area, wireless, mobile phone and telecommunication. Allows simultaneous use of speech and data services, and provide peak data rates of at least 200 KB/sec. These high speed services include voice and video phone calls, mobile internet and TV. App Application. The term for software application or program that runs on an iPod or iPad. Asynchronous Learning By design, learners participate on their own schedules. Participants usually don’t take part at the same time as other group members. Interaction may have a time delay. Examples include content and interactions via , discussion groups, Blogs, and forums, or self-paced courses delivered via Internet, CD-ROM, DVD or Podcast Blog (n) Term blended from web log. A type or part of a website maintained by an individual containing frequent entries usually in reverse-chronological order usually containing personal thoughts, online diary, or commentary on a particular topic. Most are interactive which distinguishes them from other static websites. Blog (v) To maintain or add content to a blog. Buffering Data is stored in memory for a set period of time before playing. The computer downloads a few seconds of data until it computes the download can be completed around the same time the video stops playing/streaming. Download Transfer (a file, program etc.) from a from a central "host" computer to peripheral often remote "client" computer E-learning Electronic learning. Instruction facilitated by the use of electronic technologies and digital tools to deliver or support teaching and learning. Typically involves interactivity between the learner and their instructor or peers. iPad Apple’s portable media device is a 9.7-inch touchscreen tablet computer. All models offer Wi-Fi, some have 3G. iPod Touch Apple’s handheld, combination personal digital assistant, portable media player and Wi-Fi mobile platform. iTunes Apple’s music playback and media downloading app. iTunes U distribution system that makes podcasts of academics, information readily available M-learning Mobile learning. Like other forms of E-learning, is also collaborative, but the learner is not at a fixed, predetermined location. Learning is facilitated by mobile electronic technologies such as a PDA, a smart phone or a laptop that are accessible from virtually anywhere.

12 Geek Speak Multi-touchUser can interact with more than one finger at a time to send complex commands to the device. PDA Personal Digital Assistant. A lightweight hand-held consumer electronic device that functions as a personal information manager and performs specific palmtop computing tasks; may connect to the internet. Podcast First coined referring to iPod products. It now more generically refers to any non-streamed digital audio or video media file that may be released episodically and is often downloaded through web syndication, automatically. RSS / Web Syndication Section of website material is made available to other sites to use (web feed). Web browsing experience can be streamlined by showing headlines of recent updates of a site in a browser or newsreader program (feed reader) Social Networking Building interaction and online communities. Mostly done via group-centered websites such as Facebook and MySpace. Focus is on building social relations among people who share interests and/or activities. Streaming Digital audio or video content sent in compressed form over the Internet and displayed by the viewer in real time without first storing it. User doesn’t have to wait to play the file. The media arrives in a continuous stream of data and is played as it arrives. Stylus Input device used to enter information on a surface, such as input to a computer. Synchronous Learning Type of pedagogy used in most schools. Students learn the same things at the same time. Lecture is an example of face-to-face synchronous learning. Video conferencing, instant message, internet chat, and webinars are geographically remote synchronous learning examples. Interaction is generally without delay. Tablet Computer Computer that uses a flat panel display screen or touchscreen/ graphics for primary input and display. When it is not equipped with a keyboard, a virtual onscreen keyboard is used as a substitute. Touchscreen Electronic visual display that identifies a touch within its display area, usually with a finger or hand. Can be designed to sense other objects like a stylus. Gesture input of the touchscreen is used to augment or replace other input devices such as a mouse or keyboard. Upload Transfer (a file, software, data, program etc.) to a central often remote computer from a peripheral computer. VoIP Voice over internet protocol. The delivery of voice information over the Internet, phone service via internet. Web 2.0 Second generation of the World Wide Web. Refers to behavior of how people use the Internet more than any specific change in the technology. Movement toward dynamic content. Applications facilitate user-centered design, collaboration, and interoperability. Webcast Broadcast done over the Web using streaming media to distribute a single content source to many simultaneous listeners/viewers. May either be distributed live using push technology or on demand.

13 Needs Assessment Needs AssessmentThe following contain useful information and resources for technology assessment and implementation: Career Tech (older/archived but still useful)  US Department of Education

14 Needs Assessment The following questions may guide your selection of any educational technology:  Identify your key Stakeholders Students - Professors - Visiting instructors Clinical Preceptors - Mentors - Administration What is the scope of the project(s) you wish to undertake? Determine the interests, values, and perspectives of the stakeholders regarding the addition of the technology to the curriculum Define the purpose/need for change/addition Technology is a tool; technology is NOT the message Make sure it is value added - no technology for technology’s sake Clearly define how technology will assist in meeting instructional objectives and learning outcomes Be aware how outcomes may drive the selection of the technology

15 Needs Assessment (continued)Recognize how technology can meet teaching styles "Information disseminator" vs. "learning facilitator" Ascertain technology proficiency of stakeholders Levels of technology preparedness Provide necessary training to update technology skills What is your technology infrastructure? Computers and peripherals - Software/applications Internet access Room design/features Content development resources Funding Current budget - Over the life of the plan Student vs. School What physical security measures are available in your program

16 Needs Assessment (continued)DIDACTIC YEAR/PHASE CLINICAL YEAR/PHASE 1o LEARNING ENVIRONMENT Usually synchronous Usually asynchronous 2o LEARNING ENVIRONMENT Independent/small group may lend itself to mixed synchronous and asynchronous styles Student may return to campus periodically allowing mixed synchronous & asynchronous 1o TOOLS AND APPS face-to-face (lecture) applicability distance (virtual) applicability LEARNING APPROACH “traditional” and E-learning M-learning LOCATION OF LEARNER usually determined often itinerant FEEDBACK usually rapid may be delayed RELATIONSHIP PROJECT/INFO & PRODUCT/APP longer term, building upon itself or repetitious often novel, short term “snippets”

27 Clinical Coordinator’s Needs:Carl CC Carl knows that the Clinical phase is often asynchronous and may require a M-learning approach. Carl Clinical Coordinator’s Needs: A database of procedures, hours, patient demographics of each student’s rotation Keep students informed of school happenings Provide education while students are remote from school

28 Although Carl can “design his own” by using Keynote, Numbers and Pages, (a suite of iPad products along the lines of the programs in M.S. Office), or he could port his programs directly from Office using the iPad program Documents To Go, he knows there are other options that are pre-made.
