What tool did you learn this week to assist you in differentiating the learning process for students?
I have also been taking a class on how to use the iPad within the classroom setting. I gave a presentation on using the iPad for intervention this week. The iPad can be used as a way for educators to differentiate the learning process for younger children.
How to use as intervention
· Small group
· Reflection app via the promethean board
· Increase motivation to read books (use book apps)
· Behavioral reinforces
· Whole group
· Target specific skills
· Video a child as they read, and have them watch it to evaluate fluency
· Enrichment for higher achieving students
How to support parents with using iPads, iPods, or iPhones
· Share apps that they can use at home with their child
· Share apps via your classroom newsletter
· Share apps via newsletters
· Share apps via parent conferences
How the iPad allows teachers to free up more classroom time for intervention
· Do attendance via the iPad while interacting with students
· A group could be working on an iPad app while the teacher is working with other students
· Data collection via the iPad can take less time, so more time can be devoted to instruction
