Robert SchuetzOctober, 2013
Instructional Design
● Student centered / student focus
● Plan for disruptive, off-task behavior (WWYD)
● Design lessons that focus on student learning
● Leave no time for off-task behavior
● Differentiate / personalize student work
● Put learning before content
● Develop self-regulated learners
Management Strategies
● Use proximity / movement to influence behavior
● Set expectations for hands-on / hands-off tech
time
● Practice using iPad functions, such as sleep mode
● Foster collaboration (back channels, discussion boards)
● Use timers and pacing strategies
● Empower students to help create and communicate positive behavioral expectations
More strategies
● Model learning and social media etiquette
● Use room layout to influence behavior
● Practice using iPads for specific use, (self-regulate)
● Identify and leverage student tech leaders
● Establish procedures to deal wth tech issues
Tell-tale Signs
● Screen fixated eyes
● Typing at erroneous pace
● Color / lighting reflections don’t match
● Reactions or emotions that don’t match
● Hand gestures that don’t fit activity
Considerations
● Technology won’t fix pre-existing issues
● Boring lessons are still boring, even w/ technology
● Technology infusion doesn’t mean better learning
● Expectations / consequences need clarity and
reminding
● Use randomness to keep students “on edge”
● Use group goals to create positive peer presssure
