Title
Keeping Watch: Exploring Wearable Technology Designs for K-12 Teachers.
Abstract
Emerging wearable technologies (or wearables) are promising in different contexts, but continuing research is needed to explore their utility. One such context is K-12 classrooms where teachers engage in \"classroom orchestration\" to manage activities and information, monitor student activity, and track their own curricular plans. In order to explore how wearables might support teachers with classroom orchestration, we used the Apple Watch as a technology probe where we co-designed three use cases with teachers. These use cases involved sending teachers activity notifications about student activity, lesson reminders about teachers' pedagogical activity, and allowing moment capture, where teachers photographed classroom events for further study. The technology probe illustrates how the watch fits with teachers' practice, and details teachers' new ideas for supporting classroom orchestration. We also outline design implications and objectives for wearable design.
