SSE19: TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING 2
B. AN OVERVIEW OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY 2
Educational technology 2 is concerned with “Integrating Technology into Teaching and Learning.” Specifically, this is focused on introducing, reinforcing, supplementing and extending the knowledge and skills to learners. This course intends to help our target learners to wave technology in teaching, with software (computer programmed learning materials) becoming a natural extensions of their learning tools.
Educational Technology 2 will involve a deeper understanding of the computer as well as hands-on application of computer skills. The course aims to infuse technology in the student- teachers training, helping them to meet and adapt to rapid and continuing technological changes.
Course Objectives To provide education in the use of technology in instruction by providing knowledge and skills on technology integration-in-instruction to learners. To impart learning experiences in instructional technology supported instructional planning. To acquaint students on information technology or IT related learning theories with the computer as a tutor. To learn to use and evaluate computer-based educational resources. To engage learners on practical technology integration issues including managing IT classrooms, used of the internet for learning, cooperative learning through the use of IT. To inculcate higher-level thinking and creativity among students while providing them knowledge of IT-related learning theories.
The course is primarily intended for the use of student teachers, it can also be of great use to professional teachers, school administrators, and teacher educators. The study of this course on integrating information technology in instruction should not be considered as a formidable task.
C. UNDERSTANDING TECHNOLOGY LEARNERS
Technology Learner - a learner who learns with the use of technology or anything that is digital.
Positive Effects of Technology Easy access to limitless information Various software and applications can augment classroom instruction Distance Learning became possible It maximizes student participation and engagement in the teaching and learning process Learning is mediated by the learners
Negative Effects of Technology Shorter attention span Students are becoming abusive and irresponsible users Some students are becoming less-creative
Stimulates health issues Students develop poor-judgement skills Social relationships and skills are being compromised Reasons to Technology Addiction Lack of knowledge about the responsible usage of technology The feeling / emotion of a person The level of attachment that they have invested to it Not being able to receive the attention and time needed from loved ones
D. BRIDGING THE GENERATION GAP
Generation Gap - The generation gap is the difference of outlook, opinions, beliefs, skills, attitudes, and behaviors among the older generations and the younger generations. In short, the generation gap is the age gap between each generation.
Traditional and Technological Learning
Traditional - A traditional classroom is where a teacher moderates and regulates the flow of information and knowledge. Students are expected to continue developing their knowledge of a subject outside of school through homework exercises. Here, students’ main resource is their instructor who only teaches them face-to-face.
Paper and quill pen Blackboard Manila paper Books Abacus
Technological - Learning technology is an umbrella term that describes communication, information and technological tools used to enhance learning, teaching and assessment. This may involve computer-based learning or multimedia materials used to supplement in-class activities.
Social media and digital learning tools
Social - New learners already acquainted with digital tools that adapt to both personal and participative work.
Learning to do vs. Learning to pass the test
Learning to do - Old teachers teach students in order to help them pass the tests and complete the course requirement. Learning to pass the test - New digital learners simply wish to acquire skills, knowledge and habits as windows of opportunity afford them to learn.
Delayed Rewards and Gratification Delayed Rewards - The traditional system in education consists in the grade, honor certificates, medals, diplomas. Instant Gratification - Digital learners on their own experience more immediate gratification through immediate scores from games, enjoyable conversation from web- cam calls
Rote Memory vs. Fun Learning Rote Memory - Teachers feel obliged to delivering content-based courses, the learning of which is measurable by standard tests. Fun Learning - Digital learners prefer fun learning which is relevant and instantly useful to them. Learning is play to new learners and not surprisingly there is much fun in the digital world outside the school.
F. DEVELOPING BASIC DIGITAL SKILLS
These basic literacies will not replace the 3r’s: Reading, Arithmetic, and Writing
6 Essential Skills to equip students for success in the Millennial World
- Solution Fluency (Problem Solving) - This refers to the capacity and creativity in problem solving. It requires whole brain thinking executed when students define a problem, design the appropriate solution, apply the solution, and assess the process and result.
- Information Fluency (Access, Retrieve, and Reflect [ARR]) An ability to ACCESS information. Access may involve not only of the internet, but either sources like CD-ROM software. An ability to RETRIEVE information .May includes not only texts but images, sound and video. An ability to reflect on, assess and rewrite for instructive information packages.

Web- based Project - Student can be made to create and post web pages on a given topic. But creating web pages, even single page web pages may be too sophisticated and time consuming for the average student.
I. COMPUTERS AS INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY Through computer technology:
- Educators saw the amplification of learning along computer literacy.
- Much like reading, the modern student can now interact with computer messages; even respond to questions or to computer commands.
- Like writing, the learner can form messages using computer language or program.
Soon computer-assisted instructed (CAI) was introduced using the principle of individualized learning through a positive climate that includes realism and appeal with drill exercises that uses color, music and animation.
But the evolving pace of innovation in today’s Information Age is so dynamic that within the first decade of the 21st century, computer technology in education has matured to transform into an educative information and communication technology (ICT) in education.
The Uses of ICTs in Education: Communication Media - Communication media refers to means of delivery and receiving data where information and telecommunications this means are transmission and storage tools of channels of data storage and transmission such as ; Email text and video chat room blog sites new service print video clips movie music tv room.
Audio Visual - Audio visual media on the other hand it is commonly known as audio visual and possessing both a sound audio visual components such as; Text sound graphics chart photos PowerPoint presentation CD VCD DVD player educational software and courseware.
Personal Computer (PC) as ICT:
Instructional media - Consist of audio-visual aids. Examples are the blackboard, photo, film and video.
Educational communication media - Comprise the media of communication using the print, film, radio television or satellite means of communication.
The programs (capabilities) normally installed in an ordinary modern PC are: Close to the turn of 21st century however such a distinction emerging to the advent of microprocessor also known as the pc or personal computer these are the programs normally installed in an ordinary personal computer.
Microsoft Office – program for composing text, graphics, photos into letters, articles, report, etc. Power point – for preparing lecture presentations. Excel – for spreadsheets and similar graphic sheets. Internet Explorer – access to the internet. Yahoo or Google – websites; e-mail, chat rooms, blog sites, news service (print/video) educational software etc. Adobe Reader – graphs/photo composition and editing.. Windows media player – CD, VCD player. editing film/video. Cyber Power – DVD player
What is ICT? ICT is an acronym that stands for Information Communications Technology. Let’s focus on the three words behind ICT: - INFORMATION - COMMUNICATIONS - TECHNOLOGY ICT covers any product that will store, retrieve, manipulate, transmit or receive information electronically in a digital form. It includes computers the internet broadcasting technologies such as radio and television and telephony.
How does the Personal Computer help teachers? The Rise of Personal Computer (PC): With a computer in the classroom, teachers are able to: Demonstrate a new lesson, present new material, Illustrate how to use new programs, Show new websites
How can ICTs help expand access to education? ICTs make possible asynchronous learning, or learning characterized by a time lag between the delivery of instruction and its reception by learners. Teachers and learners no longer have to rely solely on printed books and other materials in physical media housed in libraries (and available in limited quantities) for their educational needs. ICTs also facilitate access to resource persons— mentors, experts, researchers, professionals, business leaders, and peers—all over the world.
How can the use of ICTs help improve the quality of education?
- Motivating to learn. ICTs such as videos, television and multimedia computer software that combine text, sound, and colorful, moving images can be used to provide challenging and authentic content that will engage the student in the learning process.
The student as a learner must: Receive information. Understand instructions for the computer activity. Retain/keep in mind the information and rules for the computer activity. Apply the knowledge and rules during the process of computer learning.
The computer, too, plays its role as it: During the computer activity proper in CAI the computer, too, plays its roles as it : acts as sort of tutor (the role traditional played by the teacher) provides a learning environment. delivers learning instruction. reinforces the learning through drill-and- practice. provides feedback.
C.A.I Integrated with Lessons Simulation Programs Simulations are instructional scenarios where the learner is placed in a "world" defined by the teacher. They represent a reality within which students interact. Simulation software materials are another one of software that are constructivist in nature.
Problem Solving Software Since problems cannot be solved simply by memorizing facts, the students have to employ higher thinking skills such as logic, recognition, reflection, and strategy-making. There are more sophisticated than the drill and practice exercises and allow students to learn and improve on their problem solving ability.
Instructional Games instructional computer games add the elements of competition and challenge.
Multimedia Encyclopedia And Electronic Books The multimedia Encyclopedia can store a huge database with texts, images, animation, audio and video. Electronic books provide textual information for reading, supplemented by other types of multimedia information(sounds, spoken words, pictures, animation). These are useful for learning reading, spelling and word skills.
K. THE COMPUTER AS A TEACHER’S TOOL Jerome Bruner - Knowledge is constructed by the individual Lev Vygotsky - Knowledge is constructed within social context
The Computer’s Capabilities Information Tool - Information tools are applications or websites that provide large amounts of information in various formats such as text, graphics, sound, or video. Communication Tool - Communication tools are systems that allow easy communication between teachers and students or between students outside the physical barrier classroom. Constructive Tool - Constructive tools are software that can be used to manipulate information, construct own knowledge or visualize understanding.
Situating Tool - Situating tools are systems that lay the students in the environment where it involve a context and the occurrence of a situation.
L. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN SUPPORT OF STUDENT-CENTERED LEARNING Information Technology - the technology involving the development, maintenance, and use of computer systems, software, networks and application for the processing and distribution of data and information.
The Use of Information Technology in Education: Access to different and plenty of educational resources Sharing of knowledge (Collaboration) Offers Distance learning Proper record keeping Using audio and visual material as learning aids
What is Student-Centered Learning? The term student-centered learning refers to a wide variety of educational programs, learning experiences, instructional approaches, and academic-support strategies that are intended to address the distinct learning needs, interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of individual students and groups of students.
The new school classroom environment is characterized by student individually or in groups: performing computer word processing for the text/graph preparing power-point presentation, infographics, avp, online activities, educational games searching for information on the internet brainstorming on ideas, problems and project plans as needed through the use of online resources
Impact of Information Technology on Education: Changes to Learning Changes to Teaching
M. COOPERATIVE LEARNING WITH THE COMPUTER What is Cooperative Learning? Cooperative learning is the learning process in which individuals learn in a small group with the help of each other.
Five (5) Elements of Cooperative Learning:
- Positive interdependence
- Individual and group accountability
- Interpersonal and small group skills
- Face-to-face promotive interaction
- Group processing
What are the advantages of cooperative learning? It creates higher level thinking skills due to the need for skill recognition and the presence of empathy. It creates new forms of individual responsibility.
