TinkerLamp 2.0: Designing and Evaluating Orchestration Technologies for the Classroom

2012

Abstract

Orchestration refers to the real-time classroom management of multiple activities and multiple constraints conducted by teachers. Orchestration emphasizes the classroom constraints, integrative scenarios, and the role of teachers in managing these technology-enhanced classrooms. Supporting orchestration is becoming increasingly important due to the many factors and activities involved in the classroom. This paper presents the design and evaluation of TinkerLamp 2.0, a tangible tabletop learning environment that was explicitly designed to support classroom orchestration. Our study suggested that supporting orchestration facilitates teachers’ work and leads to improvements in both the classroom atmosphere and learning outcomes.

Educational technology

Educational technology (commonly abbreviated as edutech, or edtech) is the combined use of computer hardware, software, and educational theory and practice to facilitate learning. When referred to with its abbreviation, edtech, it often refers to the industry of companies that create educational technology. In addition to the practical educational experience, educational technology is based on theoretical knowledge from various disciplines such as communication, education, psychology, sociology, artificial intelligence, and computer science.

Orchestration

Orchestration is the study or practice of writing music for an orchestra (or, more loosely, for any musical ensemble, such as a concert band) or of adapting music composed for another medium for an orchestra. Also called "instrumentation", orchestration is the assignment of different instruments to play the different parts (e.g., melody, bassline, etc.) of a musical work. For example, a work for solo piano could be adapted and orchestrated so that an orchestra could perform the piece, or a concert band piece could be orchestrated for a symphony orchestra.

Classroom

A classroom or schoolroom is a learning space in which both children and adults learn. Classrooms are found in educational institutions of all kinds, ranging from preschools to universities, and may also be found in other places where education or training is provided, such as corporations and religious and humanitarian organizations. The classroom provides a space where learning can take place uninterrupted by outside distractions.
