Greetings from Mumbai! I am at present attending ASB Unplugged Conference in Mumbai. American School of Bombay (ASB) is organizing this conference once in 2 years and Educational Technology leaders from all over the world present and attend this conference.
American School of Bombay is a 1:1 tablet school and has implemented the tablet program across the school for more than 8 years now. They showcased what they do in the classrooms and also opened up their classrooms for us. Every student is having a tablet and all classrooms are using this tech access effectively to provide those students with skills necessary for living in the 21st century. I could see students creating content, collaborating with fellow students within school and outside of school and communicating them effectively. I have provided here some pictures I took at ASB. Just to remind you that ISD is moving in that direction and we are phasing in 1:1 tablet program next year. You will see the same type of collaboration, communication (what you see on those pictures) taking place at ISD in the near future and I am really excited about it.
More to come …. Keep reading ……
