What can you do with a PDA in higher education?
Deconstruct and construct texts
Students may work with a group, partner or alone to deconstruct course material and reconstruct it for their peers to demonstrate their growing understanding of learning outcomes. Such a task encourages students to transform their understandings to new learning situations, to think creatively in meeting teaching challenges and to become flexible in the ways that they apply knowledge.
Analyse data collected from classroom teaching experiences in light of course learning outcomes.
