NEW INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES (NTIC) AND PROJECT-BASED LEARNING - 3
Kategori: Allmänt
The Ontario journal Orbit has also recently published a thematic issue entitled Technology and School Programs. Clearly, this issue contains relevant articles (see, for example, Stern, 1996 and Bohaker and Evans, 1996).
In addition, there are likely to be interesting lines of research in journals such as Computers and Education, Computers in the Schools, Educational Technology, Interactive Learning Environments, and the Canadian Journal of Educational Communication (in the latter journal, see, for example, Lebow and Wager, 1994).

f) Peakview Elementary School, located in Aurora, Colorado, opened in 1991. From the beginning, the school staff implemented orientations such as grouping students of different ages, teamwork among teachers, activities that require problem solving, and the use of ICTs.
An evaluation of the early years of this school by four researchers at the University of Colorado found, among other things, that the use of new technologies facilitates the completion of individual and small group projects, and that students are more motivated and show more initiative when working on their research projects than during other classroom activities (see Wilson and Others, 1994). Note that once students have completed their projects, they keep them in an electronic portfolio.
g) A large study, the National Study of Technology and Education Reform, largely funded by the U.S. Department of Education, produced a substantial and insightful volume on aspects of project-based learning in 1994 (see Means, 1994), as well as a number of other documents describing and commenting on a wide range of concrete experiences. These documents are available through the ERIC database (see, among others, Means and Olson, 1995 and Means and Others, 1995). The Department of Education website also provides an overview of this study, as well as concrete cases of ICT use in schools (see http://www.ed.gov/pubs/EdReformStudies/EdTech).
According to the ERIC summary of Means and Olson's paper, a major goal of this study was "to examine whether technology can make a significant contribution to a constructivist, project-based approach to teaching and learning.
