From the moment you step into Professor Barry Rices classroom at Loyola College in Baltimore you know something is different. There is a blackboard, but this CPA educator hasnt written on it in five years. Students have handheld keypad polling devices at each desk to answer questions during impromptu quizzes. The overhead projector has been replaced with a permanent multimedia console that features a computer with an Internet connection, a VCR and a laser disc player. A large projection system hangs from the ceiling and stereo speakers are mounted on the front wall. Welcome to the accounting classroom of the 21st century. The bell rings, and the freshmen and sophomores settle into an hour of learning they describe as a new - wave tool for education and downright cool. In the middle of the lecture and without warning, Rice calls up his CompuPic 32 program on the network and flashes a young womans picture on the screenthe student hes chosen to answer his last question. Whether she knows the answer or not, she has to think, and the exchange is guaranteed to get other students in the class thinking as well. Surprises always await students in Rices classroom as he uses technology to teach accounting basics. In fact, his style often raises eyebrows from peers who question whether students actually learn in this environment. Its a criticism Rice has fought since the first day he decided to think out of the box that is the traditional college classroom. I do not give quizzes, I get feedback, Rice says, referring to the instantaneous way of checking whether students are learning. I do not show movies ; I use multimedia. I do not entertain students ; I engage them in the learning process. The traditional classroom is a dinosaur and ought to die ! Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
