Shanghai Primary School plans to introduce iPad for teaching

Today is the era of "big outbreak" of mobile electronic products. Teaching is no longer a "blackboard + textbook". Instead, it is nowadays the iPad that is becoming popular.

It is reported that Shanghai Luwan District No. 1 Central Elementary School is planning to use iPad to attend classes and transform paper-based classrooms into “electronic classrooms”. However, parents of students are still skeptical of new things.

"Cloud Classroom" comes into school "The use of iPad classes is part of the 'Cloud Classroom' and is currently planned to use iPad classes in math classes." Luwan, a small mathematics teacher, Hou Junjun told reporters that the reason for thinking of using iPad is that Because the students' knowledge structure is uneven, the paper test papers are the same for each student and are not targeted. If you use an iPad to teach, each student will have different topics. Students with good basics will do difficult tasks. Students with poor basics will have simple questions, and students will be able to retain the wrong topics. In addition to allowing students to be more focused on topics, using an iPad is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to save paper.

For teachers, the iPad is still only an aid for teachers. “The teacher should prepare a large number of exercises at different levels to provide students with personalized counseling. Now that math teachers are basically learning technical aspects such as teaching lesson introduction, traditional teaching aids such as blackboards will continue to be used,” Hou said.

Who is responsible for Luwan’s small iPad? “Because we haven’t officially enabled iPad class, so the current school has prepared a class of iPad, about 30 to 40 units, each class rotation, and after the end of the class will be uniformly recovered to the teacher's custody.” Hou Yu Jun told The reporter is currently constructing related platforms. It is expected that the iPad will be used for mathematics classes at the end of the year and other subjects will not be used temporarily.

The views vary from one party to another. Most people think that the iPad’s entertainment features are more appealing than others. Let the kids hold the iPad every day. Can they think about class?

“Although iPad is not new, it is the first time for class. Although the school’s starting point is good, in order to allow students to practice more in a targeted manner, the children will definitely study what is in the iPad after they get the iPad. Fun, it may distract the students' energy in class.” A parent surnamed Wan expressed his opinion, the parents also believe that long-term use of digital products will affect children's eyesight.

The student’s attitude was contrary to that of the parents. The reporter asked several students in a primary school in Shanghai. They all said that using an iPad to teach was very fresh and they hoped that their school would allow them to use the iPad to teach.

Teachers have different attitudes towards iPad teaching. The reporter found that most young teachers expressed their expectation and interest in introducing the iPad into the classroom, while younger teachers thought that using iPads would make students rely more on electronic products. “There is a phenomenon that many primary school students are using computers to complete their homework. Many words have been written without handwriting. If you use the iPad again, your child may recognize the keyboard later and will no longer use a pen. Our traditional culture will also be It will disappear." A teacher at a primary school in Shanghai said that many times, modifying the article, drafting, etc., or the traditional teaching method is better.

The first elementary school in Luwan District is also interested in avoiding the iPad's entertaining “risk”. "Because it is the school that distributes and collects the recycling, and only uses in the classroom, the time that the student contacts iPad is not much, and the school will make the corresponding restriction to iPad system, forbid the student to use other entertainment functions." Hou Jijun told reporters.
