张宝辉教授的报告摘要如下:
Mobile computing technologies are becoming more and more pervasive and affordable in our daily lives. Such technologies are suitable for one-to-one and seamless learning (learning everywhere and all the time). However, how to prepare young students for the new habits of learning that are sustainable is a big challenge. This presentation describes a three-year research study to explore how to develop a sustainable seamless learning pedagogy in a primary school in Singapore. We worked with one primary three experimental and mixed ability class (3X) since 2009. Each student in 3X was given a smart phone with unlimited Internet access, data plan and some educational software tools and he/she could use the phone 24/7. My presentation will focus on how we have integrated the affordances of mobile technologies to transform the existing primary three and four science curriculum, our multiple assessment modes, and some of the changes in the science teacher and the students. I will also share some of our challenges we have faced. It is expected for the presentation to serve as a linking point for further exchange and collaboration. For example, how might we apply this seamless learning pedagogy for other subject learning?
