Developing a predictive model for the enhanced learning outcomes by the use of technology

Abstract

This paper reports on the initial outcomes of a study to develop a model to identify the relationship between technological facilities such as iPad, MacBook, Apps and software etc., pedagogy (that can be defined as any conscious activity by one person designed to enhance learning in another (Watkins and Mortimore, 1999 [1])), curriculum and learning. The new model can be called CPT Model. This is a new area of study. The model will test the difference between the observed learning outcomes and the learning outcomes predicted. This model can predict the outcomes for assessing the students’ progress. Using a three-dimensional vector space in the form of 3D equations, after the integration between the ICT and the education, students’ observed and predicted progress (that was calculated using the CPT model) were compared. These rates were very close to each other. Therefore the null hypothesis, "there is not a significant difference between the observed (actual) and expected outcomes"
