The researcher(s) usually spend two days in each
classroom and make the following sets of observations
- Class discussion about uses of computers
- Interviews with eight student 'subjects' for more
detailed insight into their use of computers, their thoughts about ICT,
where they learn about ICT...
- Monitoring computer use in the classroom is monitored on
an on-going basis
- Observations of students undertaking ICT based
tasks as part of the normal class program (as they occur - no special
arrangements required)
- Interactions involving students as a normal
part of the class program
- Interactions involving the Teacher as a
normal part of the class program
- Interviews with
- Teacher
- Principal
- ICT coordinator (if available)
These observations are used to identify:
- The School's rationale for using ICT
- The Teacher's position on outside use of
computers by students
- The stage of integration of ICT in the
classroom (ACOT)
- The transformation of classroom practice
(ACOT)
And to learn more about:
- What is working and why
- The costs and benefits of incorporating ICT
into the class program
- The development of the use of ICT within the
School
