• W2992201544 abstract "HOW ODD IT SHOULD SEEM THAT EVEN TODAY, with interactive whiteboards, content management systems, wireless broadband, handhelds, and every sort of sophisticated computing device penetrating and improving the classroom experience for students, David Roh, general manager for Follett Digital Resources can still say, There are hundreds of reasons why teachers don't want use the technology. Those are some very hard people move. They better get movin' because the train isn't waiting for them: According Education Market Research, spending on technology products for education is expected increase 8 percent, an estimated $8.1 billion for the 2010-2011 school year, from an estimated $7.5 billion for the 2008-2009 school year. Exact figures on how many teachers do not use technology can only be guessed at; however, anecdotal evidence from vendors and school districts alike indicates resistance technology adoption is still a problem among a significant portion of the teacher population. How can school districts get universal teacher buy-in for new technologies? The simple answer is, they can't. But before trying win over as many technology converts as possible, a district must take the first step of understanding why resistance exists within its teacher population. The second step is carry out the solutions help crack it. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] 1) It's All in the Delivery With many the way a technology is introduced into the academic environment can mean the difference between adoption and abandonment. If teachers believe they are being forced into using it, they will resist, especially if you don't show them what value it will bring their classroom. It all starts with how you communicate with teachers, says Barbara Dunn, vice president of the Remediation and Training Institute in Alexandria, VA. You can position technology as, 'This is what it does,' etc., and that's fine, but when you say, 'You must use it,' that's where the resistance comes. And when you impose a deadline, it becomes another compliance thing rather than a way enhance learning. Don't try cram it down everybody's throat, Roh says. The trick is position a technology tool not just as strictly voluntary, but also as something that actually will make their jobs more interesting. These systems are often change agents, and I'm not sure teachers regard the change as being entirely positive. Roh believes the vendor's job is offer them a product they will want use, to ensure that we don't set them back, that we add value by facilitating value. One way not scare teachers off is allow them learn a technology gradually. That approach worked well at Melrose Veterans Memorial Middle School in Melrose, MA, which last year implemented the Follett Digital Classroom learning management system. Christina Fabiano, an eighth-grade English teacher at the school, says teacher adoption was high because the technology accommodated incremental learning: Teachers were able start using the system immediately after learning the basics of it, and then could go back and receive training on the other components that were useful but not entirely necessary. We did have some who were fearful, but the nice thing about the Digital Classroom is you don't have utilize everything at once, and that put a lot of teachers at ease, says Fabiano, who participated in piloting the LMS. It was challenging, the depths which you could use the system, but the fact that you didn't have learn all of it at once made the difference. People didn't feel overwhelmed. 2) A Supporting Cast Indeed, the feeling teachers can have of being overwhelmed by a new technology if they are not given enough time learn it may be the biggest inhibitor adoption, says Celine Azoulay-Lewin, the New York City Department of Education borough instructional technology director for Staten Island/South Brooklyn. …" @default.
