Change in Student and Teacher Roles

When students are using technology as a tool or a support for communicating with
others, they are in an active role rather than the passive role of recipient of information
transmitted by a teacher, textbook, or broadcast. The student is actively making choices about
how to generate, obtain, manipulate, or display information. Technology use allows many more
students to be actively thinking about information, making choices, and executing skills than is
typical in teacher-led lessons. Moreover, when technology is used as a tool to support students
in performing authentic tasks, the students are in the position of defining their goals, making
design decisions, and evaluating their progress.
The teacher's role changes as well. The teacher is no longer the center of attention as the
dispenser of information, but rather plays the role of facilitator, setting project goals and
providing guidelines and resources, moving from student to student or group to group,
providing suggestions and support for student activity. As students work on their technologysupported products, the teacher rotates through the room, looking over shoulders, asking about
the reasons for various design choices, and suggesting resources that might be used.
Project-based work and cooperative learning approaches prompt this change in roles,
whether technology is used or not. However, tool uses of technology are highly compatible with
this new teacher role, since they stimulate so much active mental work on the part of students.
Moreover, when the venue for work is technology, the teacher often finds him or herself joined
by many peer coaches--students who are technology savvy and eager to share their knowledge
with others.
