很久沒有聊聊信息化的話題了,這個系列的話題很多人都喜歡看,證明信息技術在教育領域的發展的確很重要。今天看見一篇英文,講述了未來10年的教育技術的滅亡和發展,其中也提到了教育信息化的發展方向,引用過來,翻譯一下,大家可以看看。作者是:By Dian Schaffhauser, Rhea Kelly

Top 10 Education Technologies that Will Be Dead and Gone in the Next Decade

In our 2016Teaching with Technology survey, faculty members offered their predictions on what the future holds for technology in teaching — including what hardware and systems will bite the dust over the next 10 years.

The technologies that exist in classrooms today won't necessarily be the same ones that are around in 10 years. In particular, the days of desktop computers and laptops are numbered, according to educators in Campus Technology's 2016 Teaching with Technology survey. The survey polled faculty members across the country about their use of technology for teaching and learning, their wish lists and gripes, their view of what the future holds and more.

10年後課堂教學技術和今天的未必一樣。美國高等教育資訊網站Campus Technology調查顯示,臺式電腦和筆記本電腦都已“時日無多”。《2016教育技術》調查收集分析了美國各地教師的教學技術使用情況、他們的期待和無奈以及對未來一些看法。

未來10年將被淘汰的10項教育技術

In an open-ended question, respondents were asked to predict what education tech would die over the next decade. Desktop computers were mentioned by 29 percent of the 408 people who suggested anything at all. That type of tech won hands-down by a margin of nearly 2-to-1 compared to the next most popular choice: clickers, referenced in 16 percent of the votes.

在開放式問答中,受訪教師預測了未來10年將消失的教育技術,29%的人提到了臺式和筆記本電腦,16%的人認為機械計算器在劫難逃,分別位居第一、第二位。其他預計會被淘汰的技術依次是:非交互投影儀和白板、實物投影儀/高射投影儀、傳統展示軟件、交互式電子白板、CD/DVD和播放機、一切印刷品、當前的學習管理系統、計算機實驗室和專門的工作站。

However, desktop computers came in fifth when we asked people to specify which classroom tech they wished would die. The top choice there was the learning management system, followed by student mobile devices and apps; social media; clickers; and overall incompatibilities among applications, hardware and data.

然而,被問及希望那些教育技術在未來10年消失,教師們回答最多的是學習管理系統,其次是移動設備和應用、社交媒體、機械計算器、臺式電腦、系統/程序/數據中的不相容、交互式白板、一切有線設備、展示軟件、微軟Office辦公軟件和相關程序。

美國教師希望在未來10年消失的10項教育技術

Many of the same items showed up on both lists, but people were also more creative as they pondered what they'd kill off. For example, many proposed doing away with limitations (on wireless coverage, storage space and other capacities) as well as wiring and cabling in any form. We also personally enjoyed these suggestions for possible elimination:

其他不幸被“點名”的設備技術包括:大量的登陸操作、無法“切身”體會的在線虛擬實驗、研究論文銷售網站、需加以刺激學生才會安裝的軟件、冗雜的行政管理應用。

  • "A zillion logins";

  • "Online virtual lab experiences without 'real' hands on";

  • Websites that sell research papers;

  • Having to "goad" students to participate or students not installing software for the class; and

  • "Inflated administrative affection for bloated applications."

Despite those gripes, higher education faculty are an overwhelmingly optimistic bunch when it comes to pondering the years to come. A full 97 percent said they believe that technology will play a positive role in education in the future.And while respondents were dreaming big, we also asked them to predict which emerging technologies would become important to education in the next decade. The two that blew all other suggestions out of the water were augmented and virtual reality and 3D anything — scanning, printing and design. These two categories were referenced many more times than any other type of technology.

雖然高校老師對教育技術有諸多抱怨,97%的受訪者仍表示相信技術會對未來教育產生積極作用。他們認為虛擬現實(VR)、增強現實(AR)技術以及3D相關技術在接下來10年對教育至關重要。其他一些新興科技,包括觸摸和交互投影儀/白板/界面/程序、移動學習設備、自適應學習、流媒體、雲服務等也都榮登未來10大重要教育技術榜。

未來10年10大重要教育技術

As a reminder that institutions vary widely in timeframe for their adoption of technologies, many of the categories that some faculty would like to put out to pasture are the same ones that instructors at other campuses can't wait to get their hands on. Among those referenced multiple times on both sides of the argument: mobile devices, social media, clickers and learning management systems.

值得注意的是,每所高校採用各項技術的時間不同,有些技術某些學校想要淘汰而另一些學校正迫不及待嘗試。

Or, as one faculty member in Kansas pointed out, "All past and present instructional technology is valuable. Depending on availability, there is no obsolete instructional technology. Because of diverse subject matter, it's difficult to identify or assess how valuable a given technology is to others."

正如美國堪薩斯州一位教師說的那樣,“所有過去和現今的教育技術都很珍貴。因為可獲得性不同,可以說沒有哪項技術是真正過時的。每個學校情況不同,很難評斷某項技術對其他學校的應用價值如何。”
