Secondary ICT: Personalised Learning with ICT 2 Can handheld devices or personal digital assistants (PDAs) help to remove significant barriers to learning, and enable flexibility of access, cross-curricular use, and extended learning opportunities beyond the classroom?
In this programme, we visit two schools that have been involved in the first phase of the Dudley LEA pilot, to find out how pupils and teachers have been adapting to the new technology. |  |
Secondary ICT: Personalised Learning with ICT 3 What are the issues involved in being at the cutting edge of ICT development in secondary schools? In this programme, a group of teachers and advisers from programmes 1 and 2 join Bernie Zakary from Becta to discuss their experiences of using ICT to deliver personalised learning.
The panel debate the pros and cons of risk-taking; the potential conflicts between personalised learning and formal assessment; and the impact that ICT initiatives could have on teacher workloads. |  |
