I have just spent about an hour trying to upload my Student Technology Survey onto the Blog. I never got the whole document to load successfully so I put a link to my website page that has the survey. I would greatly appreciate it if you all can look at it and give me your input. I want to give it to all 9th and 10th graders. We have science test results for them from the 8th grade and 9th grade Biology.
I'm not sure what I should do.
1. Have all their science teachers use virtual labs and compare the scores from this year to their 8th grade and 9th grade scores from classes where I know they didn't use technology and see if it improved their test scores.
2. Have the science teachers use virtual labs in half their classes and not in the other classes and compare test scores.
What do you all think?
I will be presenting a workshop when we come back on January 7th to help science teachers from 5th grade to 12th grade learn how to use two different virtual labs. I know that quite a few of them don't like using technology because they don't know how to use it without difficulty. I hope this will help them realize that technology is here to stay and they will have to "Learn to Love it or at least Learn to Live with it".
