- W766349596 abstract "Forget about rows of desks pointed at a whiteboard. Mobile technology is reshaping teaching and learning. Designing the classroom of the future is no easy task, mostly because it's difficult to know what the future will look like. As little five years ago, few could have predicted the ubiquity of tablets and their accompanying need for more and more WiFi capabilities. Even the maker movement's reliance on creative spaces is a relatively new phenomenon. As quickly new technologies arise, other devices previously deemed indispensable fall out of favor. Take the interactive whiteboard, for example. According to J.D. Ferries-Rowe, chief information officer at Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School in Indianapolis, the school made a sizable investment In IWBs about a decade ago. These days, Ferries-Rowe can't resist criticizing the boards Inherently teacher-driven. Ferries-Rowe works closely with Brebeuf assistant principal Jen LaMaster, and both are keenly tuned in to 21st century learning. boards, teachers are standing there tapping, essentially using it like a chalkboard, said LaMaster, with a trace of wistfulness. pretends to be interactive, but the most interactive you can be is two kids standing at the board and 18 watching. It's the opposite of an experiential activity. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Interactive boards are on their way out, agreed Sam Farsaii, chief technology officer for the Coppell independent School District In Dallas. inexpensive devices such tablets, and a projector system, you can simulate whiteboard activities in an even more interactive way. Farsaii pointed out that even the physical height of interactive boards can be problematic, particularly for elementary students. In the interest of cost-effectiveness, Farsaii reported that IWBs will stay In the Coppell district as long the products function, to maximize their use, but he and Ferries-Rowe agree that interactive whiteboards are a prime example of how tricky It can be to plan a classroom around any one technology. refuse to write a technology plan that goes beyond five years, said Ferries-Rowe. Anything beyond five years is Star Trek. Create Collaborative Spaces Erin Klein, a second-grade teacher and technology/design consultant, has a mission to bring flexibility and comfort to learning spaces. Regardless of future technology, she maintains that flexible seating arrangements that allow for easy transitions will serve students today and in the future. Movement is so important in the classroom, especially at the elementary level, said Klein, who teaches in the Bloomfield Hills area of Michigan. have two elementary-aged children of my own, and I know how often they need to transition. My students were telling me that they weren't comfortable, and that it was hard to talk to the person across from them without shouting because of the configuration of the desks. They were so far apart, so I got rid of the desks and asked them how they wanted to sit. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Designing the classroom for students means planning for their future needs, and first and foremost that means open access to the Internet, a feature of the modern classroom that is not likely to go out of style anytime soon. We need stations to charge multiple devices, said Klein, the reigning Michigan Association for Computer Users in Learning's Technology Teacher of the Year. The room needs to be outfitted with a lot of outlets that aren't just for regular plugs, but also for USBs. And planning for a 1 -to-1 environment is not enough, she said. Eventually, it's going to be a 1-to-3 or 1-to-4. (To read about how one school has designed outlets for the future, see the sidebar at right.) With so many students coming to school with smartphones, laptops, tablets and iPods, having a place to display information for small groups will continue to be crucial, whether it's done with an interactive whiteboard, a projector or something yet to be invented. …" @default.
