@Marisa_C There should be a term for this...distraction by technology. DBT perhaps. Do you suffer from DBT? Haha... #eltchat |

It depends on the tech I think. #eltchat Some apps are great for motivating |
| 187 |
Hada_ELT |
2016-06-08T18:06:00 |
My Ss are tech savvy and notoriously poor readers and writers so using tech has demo made a huge difference #eltchat |

I think it depends. We need to assess how well a given technology helps us achieve learning objectives. #eltchat |
| 184 |
ELTExperiences |
2016-06-08T18:06:52 |
So the question is: Does tech distract our sts in lesson? #eltchat |

@DavinnaArtibey What would be the assessment criteria would you say? #eltchat |

Before I leave quickly, why not use tech with students so that they are more motivated to learn? Everyones a winner! #eltchat |

2016-06-08T18:09:42 |
I think starting with the tech they're comfortable with first, iyelds best results. Then there's no distraction, it's str8 to task #eltchat |
| 174 |
SueAnnan |
2016-06-08T18:09:50 |
@thebestticher Yes. that can be a problem if you don't allow time for the tech in class #eltchat |

| 148 |

2016-06-08T18:19:14 |
#eltchat this can be a classroom management issue too. Whether tech distracts or not can depend how teacher uses it |

2016-06-08T18:22:24 |
@Marisa_C I think they are. My Ss wouldn't pick up a newspaper, yet they've all downloaded the BBC app & read at least 1 piece a wk #eltchat |
| 142 |
Hada_ELT |
2016-06-08T18:23:06 |
@Marisa_C Also, they wouldn't watch a documentary in English but they watch TED talks on their phones and chat abt it on WhatsApp #eltchat |
| 141 |
DavinnaArtibey |
2016-06-08T18:23:08 |
@Marisa_C Having Ss record themselves gives them feedback. They replay and re-record until pronunciation etc. is correct. #eltchat |

@wanderingELT That's interesting Giulia. Where are you best? So that must put you off using tech? Do you still s/times use it? #eltchat |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-08T21:26:53 |
Someone talked about tech = motivation for Ss. But motivation from tech burns out very quickly. #eltchat |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-08T21:20:59 |
Agree. But sometimes tech can be overwhelming, even 4 adults. Had some adult Ss chat online during lesson #eltchat https://t.co/wGZr2oni3Y |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-08T21:15:25 |
I teach mainly adults, many more than I expected are tech-illiterate. For them tech is obstacle, not aid #eltchat https://t.co/mR5Y496274 |

Great point @ITLegge We always need to dig deep & discover why Ss are distracted. No easy answers #eltchat #slowburn https://t.co/lWTLhufEID |
| |
chucksandy |
2016-06-09T04:19:54 |
Tech has had the potential to distract since audiovisual days & yes I remember film projectors ;) #eltchat #slowburn https://t.co/0RBB953kV1 |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-09T05:57:47 |
So my conclusion: tech might not be distraction if used correctly, but can be obstacle for reluctant or tech-illiterate adults. #ELTchat |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-09T05:54:28 |
#ELTchat another : some adult Ss prefer online exercises as they don't like writing. Others (most) hate them & print everything anyway |
| |
wanderingELT |
2016-06-09T05:51:50 |
In my case they show interest (if not reluctant) but loose motivation quite soon eg with apps or online ex #ELTchat https://t.co/XoWcoF7peG |

Tech needs to be used for a purpose/reason more powerful than the novelty of the tech itself #eltchat |
| |
Marisa_C |
2016-06-09T06:42:38 |
I think we cannot avoid the "distraction of a novelty" factor - as long as sth is new, not ordinary there will be some distraction #eltchat |

@Marisa_C plus they're great for exporting board work as images to share on blogs, social media, etc #eltchat I'm not 100% anti-IWB |
| |
juliacphang |

2016-06-09T09:20:04 |
@Marisa_C ...then I'm cool with IWBs. IMO they're best when you think of them as a trad board with review capability built in #eltchat |

harrisonmike |
2016-06-09T09:14:19 |
Also IWBs, ooh IWBs... When they're simpler to calibrate, set up, have more intuitive software, then they're less of a distraction #eltchat |
| |
harrisonmike |
2016-06-09T09:12:47 |
Some will say 'oh try Edmodo', but it's another username, another password to forget... Yet to find an elegant solution I think #eltchat |
