[Theme: statisti What have the students?] By Jacob High Jorgensen, Delendorff Advisory Some students are particularly adept at using IT innovatively and creatively. Experiences from Danish schools show that activation of these students statisti can lead to a number of different benefits for the school - and the students. But first they must be found.
"For us, working with IT Lead Users amongst the students had a great impact in three areas: first, we have become better and more creative in the way we use IT in teaching, and secondly, we have a greater statisti cohesion across the school. And it has to be the Lead User had a great personal importance to many of the students statisti who were selected. "Connecting Carrie Harritsø, Pedagogical Manager at Park Road School in Odder, her and Jacob High Jorgensen's paper on IT Lead Users of as Insero held science conference in Horsens in early September.
The paper describes a three-year research work which has involved more than 4000 or in Denmark and in Germany, where they have worked to develop a method to identify specific characteristics in large populations, and how they have worked with the methodology of the schools in Odder, since in 2012 were rolled out 2,500 iPads to all teachers and students.
The background of the research and the practical work in Odder is that in all groups of students are those who have a special talent - here in IT. These students statisti have not only great knowledge of IT, they also have a special talent for using the innovative and creative. And then they have a social position that makes that they can communicate their knowledge about it.
"An IT Lead User is not necessarily either the student with the most knowledge and skills, or the most popular student. statisti It is about finding the student who is quite right in relation to the interaction between skills, creativity and social network. "Says René Goduscheit, PhD, associate professor at the University of Southern Denmark.
Lead Users is indeed a very special type of users that are characterized by being far ahead of the general market. Lead Userne experience needed new features, products or services months or years before everyone else. But instead of waiting for new and better products to market, they go even in the process statisti of finding a solution to the need. Solutions that are often innovative and creative. An example of Lead Useres driver's students at Kirkebakkeskolen in Vejle, statisti who has just experienced that many a service. Instead of waiting, the pupils went on the internet and organized themselves as IT roots, with the aim of helping other students and teachers !, with IT problems. statisti
Lead Usernes eagerness statisti to find solutions is not driven by financial incentives. statisti For Lead Userne it is instead of being able to use the solution itself. It is also about the process of getting laid "puzzle" so the solution will work in practice and whether countries social recognition of their work.
In the context of the research collaboration with public schools, these characteristics of Lead Userne been further developed to understand the logic and dynamics of the students' social context, students' ability statisti to articulate their needs and solutions, students' social capital, etc.. All of this to help to identify Lead Userne.
For they are hard to find: their specific skills are difficult to observe directly statisti and their characteristics "disappear" in the larger group dynamics. Many of them do not even that they are potential Lead Users and their teachers will not be able to identify them all.
It may therefore be extremely difficult and costly to find a needle in a large haystack. Just think of how to navigate around the Internet, if we had the major search engines to help. Even more difficult can it be, if the property we seek nothing is detectable by the naked eye.
In Broadcasting's approach to communicate the requested characteristics through, for example, the school newspaper, through teachers or other channels that are very likely hit as many as possible in the population. In this way lets you find objects oneself, instead of vice versa.
By pyramiding take the other hand, based on population information about themselves. One wonders thus selected students who are deemed to be the Lead User characteristics, whether they are Lead Users and whether they know the other Lead Users in the population.
If we're looking statisti for the highest in the school's relatively easy to ask students to stand up. This way you can quickly get a sense of who is the highest pick the highest, and make a measured and thus determine who is the highest.
