Why use technology tools?
Research here
"Measures of Transfer play an important role in assessing the
quality of people's learning experiences. Different kinds of learning
experiences can look equivalent when tests of learning focus solely on
remembering (e.g., on the ability to repeat previously taught facts or
procedures), but they can look quite different when
tests of transfer are used. Some kinds of learning experiences
result in effective memory but poor transfer; others produce effective
memory plus positive transfer."
Remember: A priest paid a small Russian boy a
nickel to learn his memory verse. By age 10 he had memorized the 4
Gospels. He grew up to be the notorious Necketa Grucheff.
How do technology tools complement
experiential, multi-modal, and differentiated instruction?
