Deeper Learning with Models

Affordances in technology

Technology can benefit education in many ways throughout many subject matters, from language arts by allowing students to listen to textbooks, to electronic classes by providing visuals of circuit building while away from the classroom. Technology is a great asset in education that allows students to think deeper, learn at any time, and use what they have learned in class in other situations.

intelligent tutoring systems

Intelligent tutoring systems can supplement a student's leaning process when one-on-one time may not be possible due to class size. Schools should integrate intelligent tutoring systems into their teacher's training, and teachers into their curricula so they may have an impact on their students. (How People Learn II, pg 169)
