TERMINÉ
The project “Meet up with the future” can be divided into two themes; Addressing basic skills through more effective teaching methods. Integration of ICT and integration of literacy and creative writing, using technology and devices in the classroom. Reading among children today is of grate concern, they read less and less, they spend a lot of time in front of their computers but not using the programs teachers and parents would like them to use. Teachers have difficulties following up new methods and reaching out to students to increase their interests and improvement in reading. We want to combine our knowledge and skills and change that. We want to make reading interesting and fun, get the students involved, get the teachers involved. We want to make a project that combines digital competence to use of ICT in the classroom and using different kinds of programmes which suit our purpose to increase interest in reading among youths. Digital Competence is one of the Key Competence according to DICOMB, 2013 (see attachement) and can be defined as the confident, critical and creative use of ICT (DICOMB, 2013) to achieve goals related to education and participation in today‘s society. What this science and policy report recognises is that the creative use of ICT in the classroom is essential for students to develop in a changing world of education. Diverse use of devices, programmes and ICT in a new report (2015 NMC) recognizes that a digital fluency of teachers is a great challenge, to keep up with new technology and be confident to use it in the classroom is often difficult to persue. We decided to set our focus on what we believe to be the main technologies to watch, and combine that to our theme of increasing interest to read along with the programs and devices that we already have. According to the report Scandinavian 2015 technological outlook (2015 NCM) there are “12 technologies to watch“ for the coming years. We will focus on 8 of them in our project, that is; Bring your own device, Cloud computing, Tablet computing, Flipped classroom, Mobile Apps, Social networks, 3d printing and programming. We will combine technology and programs with our goal to increase the use of technology in the classroom and increase interest in reading among our pupils. Research reveals that the vast majority of teenagers has stopped reading books for pleasure. This is a development which we would be interested in halting and reversing. According to the results of the PISA... study, perfomed in 2010, among participating countries reading comprehension of students in 10th grade in Iceland and Turkey was not acceptable. In Germany, Norway and the Czech Republic the results were more acceptable but there was a definitive room for improvement. We believe that it would be in our interest to have a closer look at what they have done to increase literacy and we would like to make our students enthusiastic by combining technology, equipment and interesting assignments which might promote more interest in literacy among students.We would like to increase the interest level of students with assignments where they can express and enjoy themselves. To get them involved in communicating their skills by teaching others. We want to increase interest in creative writing and reading with the aid of instruments that the students are already using, such as computers, smart phones and tablets (Android, Apple, Nokia etc.) and free applications like Kahoot, Google docs...We want to try to increase the knowledge and comfort levels of teachers in using the above technology. Our plan is to implement a system whereby each participating country takes on the responsibility of developing a defined part of the project and then presents their part to the other countries.
