The other day, two colleagues asked if I knew of any videos of sound practice around students using laptops in the classroom. Actually, there appears to be a dearth of such material. I have some word pictures I could paint around the experience I have had in Dubai and at Unitec, and I am sure Thom could do the same...but not quite as visual :-)
I did however, after some hunting around come up with the range of videos:
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzJDuBlIrHc
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOYg5ZMo-mA
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj45RmhaCQM
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkXeNR52w_o

While watching the video, for me a number of fundamental questions arose:
- What are the assumptions around learning indicated by what is said by students and teachers/lecturers in these videos?
- What are the assumptions around teaching indicated by what is said by students and teachers/lecturers in these videos?
- Was there much evidence of 'real' collaboration and co-construction of knowledge?
- What did the educators do to facilitate 'real' collaboration and co-construction of knowledge?
