Type I use of technology is when a teacher uses a computer to make it easy to teach. The teacher is in charge of what is happening on the students computer. Type II use of technology is when teachers use the computer to find new approaches to teaching. The student is the one who is in control of what they are doing on their computer, often having to figure things out on their own, using different kinds of thinking skills.
Type 1 Examples:
1. When a teacher tells you what to type what he/she is saying during class.
2. When a teacher uses their own computer to make presentations to the class on what they are learing, offering visuals for the students.
3. When a teacher walks the students through researching a topic, telling them how to find information, and where to go.
Type 2 Examples:
1. When a teacher assigns a project, and a student decides to present their project in a slide show.
2.In seventh grade, every student in my grade used their laptop to make an imovie about themselves instead of having to write an autobiography.
3.In Dr. Theresa's class, Lilly and I made a comic strip showing what we learned about classroom management.
