Using ICT in the History Classroom Richard Kennett (Redland Green School)

ICT is not taught, you learn it Banned comments today: I am rubbish at ICT That’s lovely but I can’t ever book the ICT room My school doesn’t have a VLE so I can’t do that

Learning Outcomes ALL will know two new strategies for using ICT in their classroom MOST will know and in future use three new strategies for using ICT in their classroom SOME will evaluate their current practice and reflect on how to improve in relation to using ICT

Agenda Using ICT in the history classroom The history of ICT in schools Academic viewpoint What makes a good History / ICT lesson? Using Web 2.0 to engage and inspire kids Using the internet to plan your lessons for you

National Curriculum in Action ICT Statutory Requirements “Pupils should be given opportunities to apply and develop their ICT capability through the use of ICT tools to support their learning.” To what extent do you practice this in your teaching? http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/YgfxyzpiR7

The history of ICT in schools ?

History and ICT: the academic viewpoint Initially theory was in agreement: ICT does not guarantee better learning (Counsell, Haydn, Atkin). “Computers have not had the revolutionary effect they expected” Haydn (2002)

Haydn (2002): ‘ICT is very good at delivering things – but ‘delivery’ does not guarantee learning. The correlation between the volume of information available and the amount of learning is only in the minds of the politicians’ Counsell (2000): ‘More information access, prettier newspaper front pages, smarter graphs and clever web pages do not guarantee, one jot, any improvement in historical skill, knowledge or understanding’

Things are changing though….. “I'm a great believer that any tool that enhances communication has profound effects in terms of how people can learn from each other, and how they can achieve the kind of freedoms that they're interested in.”

“There can be no doubt that both inside the classroom and beyond, children today engage with history, and apprehend the past by a range of virtual, digital, visual and electronic means that was unimaginable a generation ago. Taking the long view, this is bound to have a greater impact in the classroom than the imposition of a National Curriculum – in history or indeed in any other subject.”

History lessons in the ICT room Are they ever actually any good? Share best practice Produce a list of 3 top DOs and 3 top DON’Ts

History lessons in the ICT room My golden rules Specify which websites to use Clear objectives Link with an historical skill Provide challenge both in terms of history and ICT http://www.maths.bris.ac.uk/~th0950/slave

MovieMaker Challenge - Produce a movie about the Battle of Hastings Success Criteria Number of images: Minimum - 5 images, Maximum 10 images Must include titles describing the major stages of the battle Must use 2 different slide transitions Extension: Include interpretation and comedy! http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/normans/ http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/Homework/bt.html http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/NORhastings.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Hastings http://tinyurl.com/histpgce

Let’s get a bit flashier

ICT to aid delivery Better resources = Better pace / engagement Better learning

Web 2.0 – my favourites 1. YouTube 2. GoogleApps 3. Twitter

Using the internet to aid delivery Go to the GoogleDoc I shared with you and give it a go

ICT and planning lessons GOLDEN RULE: NEVER just use anything straight off the internet.

How might you use ICT in the History classroom now?

Final Thought Atkin (2000): ‘Ask not what you can do for ICT but what ICT can do for you!’
