Faith can be a really powerful thing. I have faith in lots of
things such as the brakes in my car working. That faith doesn’t happen automatically
though. Faith in these things is built up over time which leads to us having
the confidence to use them without having to think too much about them. When it
comes to using technology, particularly in education, given the time
constraints and tight budgets, it is important that we do not have to make
leaps of faith and leave our success to chance. Just like the brakes on my car,
we cannot just have blind faith that these things will work. To support thiswhen it comes to cars we have things such as our Government imposed MOT tests
to make sure that our cars are roadworthy. Safety is too important to be left
to chance. In the same way, in order to ensure that the technology you purchase
for your school meets the right standards and are used well, we have to make
sure that the deployment of these devices has been done in ways so as to not
impact on your teaching or your pupil’s learning. Additionally, we need to make
sure that the devices we choose to use are set up in ways that ensure the
safety of our young digital citizens too.
I class myself as a modern educator. A modern educator is
someone who uses technology in the classroom to support and enhance their
teaching and the learning of their students. I know how important it is to be
confident that the technology we are going to use is going to work. Robust
deployment processes to ensure safety and efficacy are key to the successful
use of technology in education.
As a teacher, we have all had those experiences where the Wi-Fi
has caused us problems, or the login times have meant that a lot of a lesson is
lost whilst waiting for technology to come on and be available. Thankfully,technology is at a stage now where these issues don’t have to impact onteaching or learning any more.
So, what?
The forthcoming summer months can often be a stressful time for
