This document discusses digital pedagogy and the gap between digital native students and digital immigrant teachers. It defines key terms like digital native, digital immigrant, and discusses how students' and teachers' thinking patterns differ due to technology exposure. The document presents several solutions to address the digital gap, like using interactive whiteboards, hands-on teacher training, and a digital video library system called Pathway. It acknowledges limitations in only researching from the teacher perspective and limited diversity of studies. Finally, it raises a question about future research on whether technology could replace teachers altogether.

Digital Pedagogy

By: Team Awesome


(Laura, Tim, Jie, and Crystal)
Pedagogy
• The term comes from Ancient Greek
– “to lead the child”

• Definition:
– The art or science of
teaching
Digital Pedagogy
Digital Native and Digital
Immigrant
• Digital Native:
– Individuals who grown up
with new technology

• Digital Immigrant:
– individuals who grew up
without digital technology
and adopted it later
Major Cause of the Difference
• Students’ thinking patterns
have changed

• Brain structures are


changed due to different
kinds of experiences
Differences Between Digital Native
& Digital Immigrant

Digital Native Learners Digital Immigrant Teachers


Prefer receiving information quickly Prefer slow and controlled release of
from multiple multimedia sources. information from limited sources.
Prefer parallel processing and Prefer singular processing and single or
multitasking. limited tasking.
Prefer processing pictures, sounds and Prefer to provide text before pictures,
video before text. sounds and video.
Prefer random access to hyperlinked Prefer to provide information linearly,
multimedia information. logically and sequentially.
Prefer to interact/network Prefer students to work independently
simultaneously with many others. rather than network and interact.
Prefer instant gratification and instant Prefer deferred gratification and
rewards. deferred rewards.
How does it cause a gap?
• Prensky (2001) - “today’s
learners are different”

• Digital Immigrant instructors


assume learners are the
same as they have always
been
Problems with the Digital Gap
and the Digital Pedagogy

In education, the
digital gap exists
between students
and teachers, as
well as between
teachers
Problems
• Tech training for teachers is often
insufficient

• Technology usually used only for


administrative purposes,
rather than to support
curriculum
Causes
• Various factors cause the
digital gap between
teachers
– Social dimensions such as
age

– Subject and grade instructed

– Curriculum available to work


with
The LoTI Framework
Movement from teacher-based to
learner-based methods
0 Non-use
1 Awareness
2 Exploration
3 Infusion
4 Integration
5 Expansion
6 Refinement
Disparity between learning
environments
Gap in teachers’ digital
abilities leads to a difference
in the quality and style of
instruction
Solution 1: Interactive Whiteboard
the use of interactive whiteboard
Solution 2
• ‘Hands on Support’ (HOS): model of
training teaching staff in the use of ICT

• Advantage:
– 1 help teachers develop their
understanding the role of ICT in
the delivery of the national
curriculum

– 2 develop a pedagogical
relationship between teachers
and technology
Solution 2
• Disadvantage:
– Need an amount of
funding

– It is a solution in
theory but not in
practice
Solution 3
Pathway:
• Definition: a sophisticated digital video
library system to create the prototype
Physics Teaching Web Advisory –
Pathway

• Component:
– 1 Synthetic Interview (SI)
– 2 Informedia Digital Video
library
Solution 3
Synthetic Interview:
• Definition: video of a person
responding to questions

• Advantage:
– 1 allow learners to engage in
active inquiry

– 2 permit users to ask questions in a


conversational manner
Solution 3
Info-media Digital Video Library:
• Similar to Google, but does so by
searching on video and audio
information

• Creates metadata from


video

• Pathway
Limit of the Study
• We did not research from
the student’s point of view

• The diversity of researches


is limited to elementary
and middle schools
Future Research Question
With the growing number
of technological courses
and dehumanization of
teaching, is it a possibility
that in the future,
institutions will no longer
use teachers but only
technology for teaching
purposes?
