abby---a new story related to the development in the media
BBC news-- social media transform the textbook lesson
In the past, there are full of exercise books, the textbooks and the stationery in classroom, students take notes when the teacher write some things on whiteboard or blackboard. This news shows that social media is gradually change that conservative teaching method and could help student study more effectively. For example, students could get varies information from internet and think about it. moreover, the teacher set up their own blog, the student could post their homework on it, others could comment it and the teacher could mark it online, it is so so connivence and flexible. They could discuss the working tasks without school. On the other hand, students and teachers also could discuss different culture with other countries by twitter. As a result of people could expand and get the knowledge they want to research and learn by internet. In contrast, traditional teaching method is limited for teaching and learning. For example, students just get information from teacher and they just could discuss the homework in class.
I actually believe that media technology could boots learning. Take an example, the teacher could allocate the task of collecting information that will discussion next class and then they could directly into detail teaching in class. this is not only time-saving but also could develop students creative ability. In addition, the internet impels students life to be more interesting.

I really agree with this viewpoint like you said.As we have done before,the teacher putted homework on line,and we have to write it down on our blog.Then,not only we can share our ideas on blog,but we can also communicate with each other anytime and anywhere if we can use cellphone or computer.In that way,on the one hand,it is convenient to submit homework.On the other hand,there is a efficient way to manage our study time.
ReplyDeleteI had watch a video clip relate to this situation. All students in the class have ipad. They use ipad as textbook and do homework summit homework with ipad. I think it is convenient. Because students do not need to carry many heavy books to school, they can download homework and share ideas in internet. Teachers can check their homework and use professional system to analyse their homework and get them clear feedback. It also can save students and school's money of photocopy and books.
