Technology (1).... Learning.

At the beginning of a session on our Trainer Training course, I asked the participants to "fill in the blank" in the following sentence with a verb, and then complete the sentence:

Technology [verb] learning if/provided/unless/when...

For example, "Technology enhances learning when the learners create, not merely consume content".

At the end of the session, partly to demonstrate how podcasting could be used for project work, we then recorded the sentences with a digital voice recorder.

The result of the exercise:




I particularly liked the idea that technology should be used in a "judicious, memorable and novel" way but in fact liked many of the other ideas just as much.

My thanks to Amra, Annemarie, Barbara, Carol, Constanza, Iván, Jo, Juliette, Laura, Mariela, Mariyana, Sierra and Vika for their excellent ideas.
