TEACHER BELIEFS

  • Personal experiences
  • Vicarious experiences
  • Social/cultural influences
  • What experiences did the Ts in Hughes' study bring to the table?
  • How did these beliefs affect their learning?
Ertmer 275
"Beliefs formed early in life are very resistant to change, remaining virtually unchanged over time, experiences and education"

"To truly change beliefs teachers need to be willing to take risks, remain flexible, and be open to change."

ERTMER

TEACHING IS NOT EFFECTIVE WITHOUT THE APPROPRIATE USE OF ICT
Do you think this is a widely accepted idea in schools? High ed?

HHS

  • Knowledge
  • Self-Efficacy
  • Pedagogical Beliefs
  • Subject & School Culture
  • Do the interviewees give evidence?
P. 267 "...we need to consider all of these factors, or we are unlikely to be successful in influencing teacher change over the long term."

Does the data show these elements in teachers learning experiences with tech?

Whole group discussion or small groups?

IMPLICATIONS FOR USE

  • The teacher must be willing to consider and reflect. P.298
  • How many teachers are willing?
  • What could make a teacher willing?
  • What about teacher education programs?
Talking about Doug's experience with email through project btw his 5th graders and pre-service teachers
He was introduced by a colleague in the context of cross cultural conversations which caused him to change his ideas on the role of culture in the literacy classroom.
"Learning activities that provide such alternatives or dilemmas provide a direct path toward change - as long as the teacher is willing to consider and reflect on the dilemma or alternative being presented- which is not assumed."
Why was Doug willing to consider changing his beliefs?
What are some things that may make teachers unwilling?

Ertmer says we need a "two-pronged approach that addresses these factors (a) during teacher education programs and (b) during professional development programs for practicing teachers."
