Implementing modern techology in education and developing ict methology
Start date: Aug 11, 2014, End date: Aug 10, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Background: We have students with a a broad perspective of needs and learning strategies. We want do use modern technology as a tool to meet these needs as well as develop our methods and pedagogy. Project: We will equip one class and their teacher with pads. Start using those pads as tools to build knowledge and learn how to find, filter and evaluate information and after that build up understanding. The students will learn how to cooperate and help each other towards a deeper understanding. This will be done via shared cloudbased services, more opportunities to discuss and work together. Primarly personnel involved directly in this project are the classteacher, a schoolaid and the headmaster. Indirectly other teachers teaching this group also will be involved. Another important issue is to adress ergonomic issues and to find solutions that are ergonomic and supports health while using modern technology. This will be implemented in a larger scale in new schoolbuildings in Porvoo during the next few years (Porvoo is about to invest >32 000 000 € in schoolbuildings). Methods and good practices will be shared to teachers in Porvoo and the surrounding municipalities. There will be bilingual cooperation in every aspect between swedish and finnish schools in Porvoo. This is a key factor in working for equal opportunities and equity in the schools of Porvoo. In cooperation with teachers from Keskuskoulu in Porvoo we aim to gather solid knowledge of ICT in teaching practises as well as WEB 2.0 curating and dissemination of knowledge to work in co-operation with our partners in other schools, special education, and municipalities.
