 Reconciling Teaching Practice with Evidence-based Data

Educational research is a very dynamic field. A lot of action research and increasingly more collaborative research (which means that classrooms are welcoming research teams) is occurring everywhere. However, the results do not often leave the inside of the walls of universities and research centres so that it can be applied in schools. This is not because of lack of interest in doing so, but mostly because there is a reluctance and a fear of dogmatism.

 “Augmented” Peer Feedback for Learning Purposes

The PÉRISCOPE network, which has been holding panels about the inequalities and inequities exacerbated by Covid-19 since the spring of 2020, is interested in peer feedback as a promising course of action. Feedback is provided when one person provides information to another to help them better understand, behave better, or progress in an activity. What we mean here by “augmented feedback”, is feedback given verbally or in writing, supported by a digital tool during a learning and evaluation situation (LES).

 Investing in Technologies for Student Learning: 4 Principles School Boards and Parents Should Consider

Technology, in its many forms, has been present in the classroom since the introduction of the blackboard, followed decades later by the overhead projector. Now, in our digital age, classroom environments can always be connected to the Internet, and educators need to make choices about both hardware and software.

 Your Smartphone Is Not Making You Dumber — Digital Tech Can Enhance Your Cognitive Abilities

Digital technology is ubiquitous. We have been increasingly reliant on smartphones, tablets and computers over the past 20 years, and this trend has been accelerating due to the pandemic. Conventional wisdom tells us that over-reliance on technology may take away from our ability to remember, pay attention and exercise self-control. Indeed, these are important cognitive skills. However, fears that technology would supplant cognition may not be well founded.

 Moving Beyond SAMR with the Rigor Relevance Framework

While there are many frameworks to choose from when it comes to the effective integration of technology, the SAMR Model is typically the one that most people and schools leverage. It emphasizes on what NOT to do with tech. Another interesting model to know is the Rigor Relevance Framework, developed by the International Center for Leadership in Education. It puts an emphasis on what the learner is doing. While there isn’t a seamless alignment, Eric Sheninger attempted to connect them both.

 Supporting Teachers Who Make in Schools and How to Evaluate Learning from Making

Education systems around the world are encouraging their schools to develop maker programs to enhance learning and skill development that prepares students for the 4th Industrial Revolution. Through maker education, students develop a plethora of skills and STEAM concepts. Ensuring that maker experiences live up to their potential can be difficult, however, as assessing student learning through maker projects and getting all stakeholders in education at the local and regional level on board can be challenging. In our study, we spoke to more than 30 experts in making and education.

 Revising and Correcting a Text at School in a Digital World: Approaches That Still Need Some Exploration

In the État des lieux de l’enseignement du français (ELEF) survey, Lord and Chartrand (2010) reported that only 14% of teachers get students to use word processors for their writing often or very often, “more so to compile texts than to correct them”. Although ELEF data is revealing, it describes a situation that prevailed more than a decade ago. Have digital writing practices changed since then, particularly in the wake of the Plan d’action numérique (MEES, 2018)?

 Teaching During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Developing Digital Efficacy

Teams. Zoom. Hybrid teaching. Asynchronous educational activities. Before March 12, 2020, these words were not part of the daily lives of the majority of elementary and secondary teachers, but COVID-19 has helped to make them of interest. The emergency shift to digital technologies disrupted the school’s activities; however, it also provided an unprecedented opportunity to promote their use in teaching and learning.
