This document outlines Charlyn R. Ras's portfolio in educational technology. It begins by introducing Charlyn as a 3rd year student studying mathematics education. It then discusses key topics from her Educational Technology course including understanding technology learners, preferences of the technology generation, developing digital skills, and using technology to support student-centered learning. Finally, it reflects on how the course helped Charlyn learn to use technology to make teaching more effective and engage students through tools like PowerPoint.

Introduction
Educational Technology 2 is a new
course in the education curriculum which has
to come about from the need to adapt to a
changing world. Now, we all know that so
much advancement has been made in the
field of technology. We are now in living in a
world of computers, internet, laptops, cell
phones and other technological inventions.

resources.
Daily exposure to high technology- personal
computers, video games, cell phones. Internet
sites- stimulates the brain.
A current technological revolution is creating an
intellectual better than ever before.

The new generation is exposed to guide
flicking video games, mobile phone texting,
socializing through the social Websites and etc.
Text versus visuals
Linear versus hypermedia
Independent versus social learners

Developing Basic Digital Skills
A teacher should adjust their teaching to
effectively match the new digital world ICT, they must
be clear on what basic knowledge, skills and values
need to be developed by digital learners.
Solution fluency
Information fluency
Collaboration fluency
Media fluency
Creativity fluency
Digital ethics

Evaluation of Technology Learning
Teachers must adopt a new mindset both
for instruction and evaluation. Evaluation must be
geared to assessment of essential knowledge
and skills so that learners can function effectively,
productively and creativity in a new world.

Higher Thinking Skills Through IT- Based
Projects
Students who demonstrate higher thinking
skills and creativity through such activities
searching for information, organizing and
synthesizing ideas.
The four IT based- projects:
Resource based Projects
Simple Creations
Guided Hypermedia Projects
Web- based Projects

Computers as Information and
Communication Technology
In this topic 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 in education.

The Computer as the Teachers Tool
In this topic, we can learn the different
perspective of the computer as the teacher’s
handy tool.
The computer capabilities:
Informative tool
Constructive tool
Co- constructive tool
Situating tool

Information Technology in Support of Student
Centered Learning
•Traditional classroom – it usually arranged with neat
columns and rows of students chair, while the teacher
stands in from of the classroom.
•The SCL classroom - the term student-centered learning
refers to a wide variety of educational programs, learning
experience, and instructional approaches, that are
intended to address the distinct learning needs,
interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of
individual students.

13. Educational Technology in a

Cooperative Learning with the Computer
Cooperative is also called group learning
by the small groups of students who work
together in a common learning task.
Components of Cooperative Learning:
Assigning students to mixed- ability teams
Establishing positive independence
Teaching cooperative social skills
Insuring individual accountability
Helping groups process information

The Software as an Educational Resource
The computer hardware can hardly be useful
without the program or system that tells what
computer machine should do is called software.
Two kinds of software:
the system software
the application software

15. Educational Technology in a
Nut Shell
• Microsoft Windows is an
operating environment
between the user and the
computer operating system
• Instructional software can
be visited on the internet or
can be bought from
software shops.

16. Educational Technology in a

Understanding Hypermedia
Most educational IT applications are hypermedia
and these are:
tutorial software packages;
knowledge webpages;
simulation instructional games, and
learning project management

17. Educational Technology in a

Characteristics of Hypermedia
Application:
Learner control
Learner wide range of navigation
routes
Variety of media

18. The Internet and Education
 Internet-largest and far-flung network
system-of-all-systems.
 Through Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol everything can be
coordinated through the internet.
 The most attractive way to move around the
internet browsing. Using a program called a

19. Learning Through Educational
Technology 1
In Educational Technology 1, computer
should not just be used on playing games, cyber
bullying and etc. which could deprive other's
rights. Rather it used be used in a correct way.
instead of playing online games why don't we
search our assignment over the net? Or just
simply visit the educational website, in that way
we could gain more knowledge that can help us
in our studies.

20. Education Technology 1 has truly paved
the way for the learner to become aware,
appreciative and equipped to use educational
technology 1 tools ranging from traditional to
modern educational media.
Learning Through Educational
Technology 1

21. Learning Through Educational
Technology 2
In educational Technology 2 it is involve
the deeper understanding of the computer as
well as hand- on application of computer skills.
It gives us a better comprehension of how
technology is being integrated to the teaching
and learning process which could make the
learning more fun and interesting for the
students and for the teachers as well.

22. Learning Through Educational
Technology 2
Educational Technology aims is to engage
the students on a collaborative way with the
internet in order for them to learn better, and to
infuse technology in the student- teachers
training, helping them to adapt and meet rapid
continuing technological changes particularly in
the thriving global ICT environment.

23. The Student After
Educational Technology
After Educational Technology, I
learned that technology equips the future
teacher to become more effective and
efficient in her day to day work. And also
educational technology can help teachers
and students in doing a PowerPoint
presentation to become it more interesting.

24. “There can be infinite uses of the computer and
of new age technology, but if teachers
themselves are not able to bring it into the
classroom and make it work, then it fails.”
Nancy Kassebaum
The Student After
Educational Technology
