Research questions

Frontpage      Project Methodology     Research Framework


 

Dr Joolz suggested at the November 8 meeting that we need some clear research questions. Here's a start - please edit, as appropriate:

 

  • What sorts of attitudes and understandings about digital literacy do student teachers need(should we start with what attitudes and understandings they have to begin with?)? yes lets start with they and us understand  as DL
  • What are the needs of ITE tutors with respect to digital literacy?
  • How do teachers use digital literacies to promote creative approaches to learning in the classroom?
  • How do schools frame the uses of digital literacy in the classroom? What do schools understand to be the purpose and application of DL for learning, for teaching, and as an element of the curriculum? 
  • What sort of pedagogical approaches are most appropriate in teacher education for digital literacy? What do teacher educators understand as appropriate practice with/through DL?

 

Drjoolz also suggests these:

 

  • What kinds of conditions are needed to support student teachers and ITE tutors in developing their digital literacy skills?
  • Can the use of digital literacies create additional possibilities for more  exciting (and not so exciting) pedgaogies in the classroom? 
  • What implications do digital literacies have for learning and teaching? 

 

and

 

What approaches to assessment for learning need to be undertaken in relation to digital literacy in the classroom?  

What are the most appropriate means to assess student teachers' understanding of digital literacy pedagogies?

 

What do we (the world) mean by open educational practice, and what is the place of open educational resources in this practice?

What do teachers and teacher educators understand Open Educational Practice to be?

What is the relationship between understandings of open educational practice and the use of digital tools for learning and teaching?

How does digital literacy (or digital literate practice in L and T) influence the use, re-use, and creation of open educational resources

How might digitally literate approaches to L and T affect classroom practice and how learners perceive L and T?

 

When we talk about digital literacies, what sort of practices are we talking about - social or professional? (inspired by David White's recent blog post from JISC Digital Literacies start-up meeting)

 

From Lou McGill's presentation Telling stories, making sense

Who  owns the literacies? (How) do the different existing frameworks overlap?

Like what G and J have posed - have added some in the Open Educational Practice direction to balance these
