2. What is Educational Technology?
It is the study and ethical practice
of facilitating learning and
improving performance by
creating, using and managing
appropriate technological
processes and resources.
3. “The illiterate of the 21st century
will not be those who can read and
write but those who cannot
learn, unlearn and relearn”
- Alvin Toffler
4. All human beings learn by
doing, analyzing, talking, processing, a
nd problem solving. Talking at kids
never has been and never will be an
effective way to help them learn.”
-Eeva Reeder
5. “The teachers and administrators are
were very nervous about the
nontraditional nature of the activities
and how they would affect test scores.
In the end the students involved in
these two projects all scored as well as
their peers on some of the test and
significantly better on others.”
-Paul Resta
6. “A broad overview is important , but
stopping frequently to involve
students in projects that allow them to
go deep is equally important. We need
a balance approach”
-Margaret Honey
7. “Let’s be honest, we can get some
initial gains on tests by teaching to
they test and practicing their test
taking skills. Ultimately, though
were going to hit an achievement
wall. The irony here is that the
teachers are more likely to
8. "technology will help us find ways to
more effectively utilize assessment
both for identifying overall
achievement patterns as well as for
helping individual students learn.
Devising these much-needed quality
assessments must be a priority of our
policymakers.“
-John Wilson
9. II. How can Educational Technology
helps in the learning process of the
students?
11. New 21st century learners are
highly relational and demand quick
access to new knowledge. More
than that, they are capable of
engaging in learning at a whole
new level.
12. The new 21st century learners
must master more than the core
curriculum to succeed in secondary
and postsecondary institutions, as
well as in the workplace.
13. The Partnership for 21st Century
Skills, a national organization
advocating for 21st century
readiness for every
student, explains the outcomes of
this transformation as fusing the
traditional three R’s with four C’s:
15. The four C’s are at the heart of the
International Society for Technology in
Education’s National Educational
Technology Standards (NETS) for
Students, providing a substantial
framework for defining the focus of
technology objectives for K-12
students.
17. Discovery activities give students realworld, problem-solving experience and
ownership over their learning, as well
as allow them to bring their
observations into the subsequent
lesson, discussion, or creation activity
as prior knowledge.
18. One of the greatest benefits of
21st century technology infusion is
also one of the key mandates for
successful technology integration.
Traditionally, students have
composed their work for an
audience of one—the teacher.
19. III. What is the advantages and
disadvantages
of Educational Technology
21. Using Educational Technology for drill
and practice for basic skills can be
highly effective according to a large
body of data and a long history of use
-Kossakowski(1998)
22. Technology can be a crucial tool to
improve student learning. The quality
of public education could be improve
by utilizing the Web to individualized
instruction, creating learnig
opportunities for teachers.
-Symonds(2000)
23. - Technology enhances education and
is becoming increasingly essential to
learning. Student development of
basic academic skills improves with the
use of technology, especially for at-risk
students.
26. - While technology can be a great
addition to the classroom, it also
can be a source of frustration for
both teacher and the student
27. Technology does not have a place in
classrooms where teachers have not
been adequately trained in its
implementation. While technology is
fun and can add interest in for
students, it is not fully integrated until
students are learning, from technology
and not just with technology.
28. Teaching theory behind
technology education is called
constructivism: teacher
preparation programs or courses in
educational technology teach the
concepts in inquiry-based learning.
29. Because of connection
problems, downloading
issues, policing software and other
difficulties can cause road blocks when
implementing lesson in the technology
based classroom, teachers sometimes
shy away from using it simply because
of lack of time
30. Once technology is purchased for a
school, the cost of unkeep and
maintenance can be too great for
the building to be maintain.
31. Because of learning with
technology involves typing input
into a computer, there is a
disconnect between the
assessments that determine
government funding and the use of
technology in the classroom.
