Providing Digital Natives with Digital Teaching Platform: investigating their perception Kurniawati Nur Fadhilah
Language Training Center UMY
Abstract
The ubiquitous use of technology that 4.0 revolution has brought about ought to not solely aim at catering digital native needs for technology but, more essentially, should also aim at empowering them competing in the 21st century global market. Hence, Digital Teaching Platform (DTP) must not merely be defined as transforming printed media to digital but rather as comprehensive design covering Collaboration, Bring Your Own Device, Flipped Classroom, Blended Learning, Project-based Learning, and Universal Design for Learning. This study is initiated by the concern of how Indonesia-s digital natives are not yet native to DTP for there is still a tendency of separating technology use inside/outside classroom and reluctance of escaping from the conventional teaching-learning comfort zone. With this study, in total of 24 Agro-technology students in Level 2 class (equal to CEFR band B1) will be assisted with two DTP sessions (90 minutes per session) benefitting authentic internet-based sources, Kahoot! interactive online game, MIT A12 Companion mobile application, and Goformative online assessment platform. Observation and semi-structured interview on 6 students will be used to investigate their actual perception toward the use of DTP in hope of recognizing an effective maneuver from conventional teaching to DTP necessary for our students.
