Ballpoint pens will be the ruin of education in our country. Students use these devices and then throw them away. The American virtues of thrift and frugality are being discarded. Businesses and banks will never allow such expensive luxuries. -Federal Teacher
Why the iPad?
What is Average?“Options are essential to learning, because no single way of presenting information, no single way of responding to information, and no single way of engaging students will work across the diversity of students that populate our classrooms.”David Gordon, 2011
Making Differences OrdinaryIf inclusion is to be successful and students with disabilities are to be part of the learning community, there must be a fundamental change in the general education classroom so it is accepted that not all students will learn the same things, in the same way, at the same time. (McLesky & Waldron, 2000)
What’s the goal?
There’s NOT an app for everything!
Techno-centric planning might lead to something like this....
SETT
System of Tools and Strategies
Some Considerations...• what purpose or task will the app facilitate?• who is the target user?• app- any special features?• app- cognitive demands?• app- set up?• app- sensory demands?• app- physical demands?• deepen content or concept knowledge?• deepen engagement?
But How to Choose?
• It’s crazy!

Graduate Attributes

This Taxonomy wheel, without the apps, was first discovered on the website of Paul Hopkin’s educational consultancy website mmiweb.org.uk That wheel was produced
by Sharon Artley and was an adaption of Kathwohl and Anderson’s (2001) adaption of Bloom (1956). The idea to further adapt it for the pedagogy possibilities with
mobile devices, in particular the iPad, I have to acknowledge the creative work of Kathy Schrock on her website Bloomin’ Apps

V3.0: Learning Design starts with Graduate Attributes, Capabilities and Motivation
This is the blog post which explains the new features of the latest version of the Wheel
How to use the Padagogy Wheel: It’s All About Grey-matter Grids (GGs)
A methodology to get the best results with this teaching model
The Padagogy Wheel V3.0
Requested by CEO's and executives .... the people that hire, what they desire to see in graduates from higher education.
• Having energy, passion and enthusiasm• Being willing to give credit to others• Empathising & working productively with diversity• Being transparent and honest in dealings with others• Thinking laterally and creatively• Being true to one’s values and ethics• Listening to different points of view before coming to a
decision• Understanding personal strengths & limitations• Time management skills• Persevering• Learning from errors• Learning from experience• Remaining calm when under pressure• Being able to make effective presentations to different
groups• Identifying from a mass of information the core issue/
opportunityThese are some of the capabilities that should be identified as part of our graduate attributes and woven into the fabric of our courses in the activity design. We need to have transformation at the core of what we do as teachers, if it is all about the students. Don't jump into learning outcomes, activity design and choosing technology without first reflecting on graduate attributes and capabilities then how to improve motivation and engagement. Miss these and your course design will be weaker for it.Please visit the blog post and listen to the podcast episode at: “If you exercise these capabilities.. you will be employed!”

The success of technology has more to do with people than machines. All the right parts and pieces together won’t work miracles by themselves. It is people who make technology powerful by creatively using it to fulfill their dreams.
Alliance for Technology Access, 1996
