Media can take various forms including print, audio, and audio-visual. It serves important functions such as informing, educating, and entertaining the public. Media helps make government transparent and allows citizens to voice opinions. It has significantly impacted school and culture. While it has increased collaboration and technological skills, excessive social media use can reduce academic performance and weaken communication skills. Technology in schools allows learning from and with new tools, but must be implemented carefully to achieve educational goals. Overall, media plays a vital role in society but also warrants responsibility in preserving culture and understanding audience impact.
Mobile phone usage among students its pros and cons
Mobile phone usage among students has both pros and cons. Technological advancements from 1G to 5G have increased cell phone functionality and usage. While phones provide instant access to information, they can be a distraction and negatively impact students' mental health, physical health, and academics. Cyberbullying and peer pressure are also issues with increased phone usage. Teachers must help students maximize the educational benefits of phones while minimizing the risks.
Th digital divide by Maha Aljehani
The document discusses the digital divide, which is defined as the gap between those who have access to technology and the internet and those who do not. It notes that while technology and mobile media are growing, rural areas still lack access. It then examines factors that contribute to the digital divide such as income, education, age, gender, and urban/rural differences. The impacts of the digital divide on students and teachers are also summarized, including lack of opportunities, resources and skills development for those without access. Finally, ways to address the digital divide are proposed, such as providing affordable access through schools, libraries, and training programs.
Report on Loss of Reading Habit Amoung Youth
The document is a research project on the loss of reading habits among youth. It includes an introduction outlining the topic, a methodology section describing how primary research was conducted through surveys, and analyses of the survey results. Key findings include that most youth enjoy reading but feel they do not have enough time, and that increased access to technology and a fast-paced educational system have reduced opportunities and motivation for reading. The conclusion is that while digital technologies are important, they have also negatively impacted reading habits by distracting youth and wasting time on unproductive activities.
Technology 2
Technology is an important tool that can be used to support teaching and learning when used efficiently. While students today rely heavily on electronic devices, how technology affects their educational experience and well-being is still unclear. Excessive use of devices like cell phones, laptops, video games and mp3 players can create an addiction in children and teenagers, for whom technology and the digital world have become a fundamental part of their identity.
Effects of Social Media on Reading Habits
Social media and decline in reading culture. A case study of the effects of social media on students reading habit
Mass media
Mass media plays an important role in education by informing, educating, and entertaining large audiences. It comprises institutions like print media, radio, television, and the internet that disseminate knowledge. Print media like newspapers have long been used in classrooms to promote learning, while electronic media like television and radio can be powerful teaching tools. The internet also has significant potential for providing educational resources to learners regardless of their background. However, media can also have negative impacts if overused, including encouraging shallow learning, dulling students, and exposing them to inappropriate content. The document argues that media should be transformed into a positive force that educates people responsibly.
IMPACT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ON THE PRIMARY STUDENTS
The document outlines Sherin Farahnaz Bi's oral presentation on the impact of information technology on primary school students in Vuci South Settlement in Nausori, Fiji. The presentation covers examples of information technology, benefits of IT, impacts/problems of IT, solutions, and concludes that IT is an important part of modern life but can also divert students' attention if not properly supervised.

Mass media affect children in their performance
This document discusses a study on the effects of mass media communication on students' learning. It aims to identify the impacts of mass media, determine the attractiveness factors, and ways to benefit from mass media usage among students. The study is limited by students' willingness to participate in surveys. Mass media is defined as communication channels that transmit information to large audiences, such as television, radio, newspapers and the internet. While media can positively impact knowledge, it is also feared to undermine moral values with excessive violence and sexuality. The study seeks to understand both the positive and negative effects of mass media on students' performance and learning.

Information Technology In Education
Information Technology in Education, effects of the continuing developments in information technology (IT) on education.
The pace of change brought about by new technologies has had a significant effect on the way people live, work, and play worldwide. New and emerging technologies challenge the traditional process of teaching and learning, and the way education is managed. Information technology, while an important area of study in its own right, is having a major impact across all curriculum areas. Easy worldwide communication provides instant access to a vast array of data, challenging assimilation and assessment skills. Rapid communication, plus increased access to IT in the home, at work, and in educational establishments, could mean that learning becomes a truly lifelong activity—an activity in which the pace of technological change forces constant evaluation of the learning process itself.
Mass media
The mass media plays an important role in modern society by influencing people's ideas, habits, and customs. Experts believe that the amount of information received from media sources like newspapers, magazines, films, television and radio exceeds the information received from school teaching. As a powerful educational tool, the media has both advantages and disadvantages when incorporated into school curriculum. While the internet has been quickly integrated into education, other media also frequently appear in curriculum proposals, although experts say the addition is often just superficial and does not delve deeper into how to effectively use media.
My Reflection of ICT
Information and communication technology (ICT) plays an important role in modernizing education systems and the way learning occurs. ICT refers to technologies that allow access to information and is now integrated into many aspects of daily life. For education, ICT aims to familiarize students and teachers with computers and address related social and ethical issues. While ICT transforms both teaching and learning processes to increase student learning and develop skills like creativity, there are also some potential negative effects. Teachers may over-rely on unverified online information and students could become lazy and irresponsible if they easily access materials without proper understanding.

Abstract : Mobile devices in this modern generation such as cell phones has become the most used instrument in the people’s daily activities including browsing Internet and sending e-mails. In this work, the mobile technology is suggested to help the higher educational students, studies, check their emails, self-testing themselves, following news, search for jobs, the help of new learning environment to learn course subjects easily, collaborative learning opportunity, and remaindering the learning activities automatically (Homework and announcement, exam, self-test, chat, etc.). This application will also have the ability to send a voice call to their teachers and attend conferences through internet, even by video calls. Basically, some methods have been suggested to settle this application according to the available new technology. The preliminary outcomes of the conducted experiment demonstrated the possibility of applying mobile devices within the various help of the students at Girne American University and for the young people and scientific. In this work, survey is prepared as two forms, one for personnel information and the second for the use and benefits of using smart phones in higher education.

Ed105 b lesson 3 understanding technology learners 2
The document discusses the differences between traditional and modern learners. Traditional learners were better able to focus and concentrate, while modern learners have shorter attention spans and prefer learning through videos, games and technology. Teachers still use traditional teaching methods that do not account for digital learners. However, using technology in learning has benefits like strengthening the brain from daily exposure and allowing for multitasking skills useful in many careers. While multitasking is a modern skill, single task skills are still important for focused tasks like grading papers. The document suggests educators modify teaching methods to engage digital learners through technology.
Understanding Technology Learners
Today's learners appear smarter but have difficulty reading like their parents and are addicted to the internet. Their concentration in class is questionable as they are uneasy sitting and listening. They become engaged again through video, group activities, and computer classes. It is observed that new learners spend much time interacting through social media. While technology has benefits like stimulating brain development, it can also be detrimental to concentration if used for multitasking. There is a need to balance the positive and negative impacts of technology on new learners.
Digital balance literacy: A model for supporting wellbeing in the digital era
The health and wellbeing of staff and students have become a more pressing concern during the Covid-19 pandemic. While EdTech corporations are celebrating the increased use of digital media as a breakthrough and aim to keep institutions locked into patterns that emerged as a reaction to the crisis, following a „support now, sell later“ logic ( (Ben Williamson und Anna Hogan 2020), negative influences on health and wellbeing, as well as an increase in both educational and health inequalities have manifested. Institutions have responded with a range of initiatives; however, the Jisc Digital Competence Framework (UK) and the EU DigComp framework had already added in, and recognised, the importance of “digital health and wellbeing”. Drawing upon the body of work the authors contributed to the recent EU Digital Competence review (health and wellbeing) we challenged existing assumptions. Our paper is located within the under theorized area of starting with a ‘non digital’ point of reference on the digital/non digital continuum (cf. widened uses and gratifications approach by (Krcmar 2009), and we argue that this is a crucial aspect in terms of the future framing of models for health and wellbeing in the digital era.
The underpinning evidence base is interdisciplinary, and for our proposed model, we have synthesized the work from two key research traditions.
The first tradition is grounded in paediatrics and developmental (neuro)-science and draws upon research about the impact of the media, and the problematic aspects of screen usage, especially on children and adolescents. This is well documented and problem dimensions have been subdivided into excessive time, age-inadequate content and dysfunctional mood regulation as a predecessor to addictive use (Bleckmann und Mößle 2014) Strategies to ameliorate excessive screen time targeted at children, their parents and educators are varied and often combine reducing access to devices with the fostering of alternatives to screen media use during leisure time.
The other research tradition focuses on ways in which digital media can contribute to health and well-being in different ways. End users can either use digital media to find information on health issues, or they can use them for online contact with experts from the medical and therapeutic profession for remote diagnosis or online treatment, or use entirely digital tools (online health applications). The skill set needed is then seen as similar to that of classical health literacy (access, understand, appraise, apply). Existing early models like the Lily model of eHealth Literacy ( (Norman und Skinner 2006) , but also wider models like Digital Health Literacy (van der Vaart, Drossaert 2017) are in line with this tradition; our model seeks to draw together both traditions.
Assignment slides #2
The document discusses how 21st century learning has changed due to technological advances. It notes that students now have access to more information through technology but it also means they must be technology literate to not fall behind. While technology has increased access to information, it has also created inequities for students from low socio-economic homes without the same access. The document concludes that for students to adapt, they must learn new technology skills, incorporate technology into their daily lives, and adjust their learning practices to ones that utilize modern classroom technologies.
Ryan del rosario
ICT refers to information and communication technologies, including any devices or applications used for communication like radio, TV, phones, computers, networks, satellites, etc. as well as associated services. ICT is discussed in different contexts like education, healthcare, and libraries. The importance of ICT lies in increasing access to information and communication for underserved groups. Many countries promote ICT to prevent increasing technological advances in developed nations from exacerbating economic gaps between areas that do and do not have technology. ICT 2017 was a conference that brought together researchers to address challenges in information and telecommunication technologies.
Technology In Education
The document discusses trends in educational technology and its implementation in schools. It notes a shift towards more constructivist teaching styles with technology and less time spent lecturing as teachers work more with small groups. State-level programs provide laptops, smart classrooms, and professional development for teachers to help transition to technology-focused learning environments. Federal laws require schools to filter internet content to receive certain funding and address legal issues around online policies.

The document discusses students' use of technology based on a study from Australia. It finds that most Australian children will grow up with ubiquitous access to technologies like computers, the internet, mobile phones, and social media. It describes trends in how students use these technologies, such as 90% accessing computers at school and 70% also using the internet. The document also discusses challenges and opportunities that new technologies present for educators to develop students' innovation, creativity, and learning.
Effect of social media on College Students
This document outlines a research project on the effects of social media usage on college students. The research questions examine how social media impacts learning and whether time spent on social media affects academic performance. A survey was conducted of 50 college students to collect data on their social media usage habits and perceptions of how social media affects their studies. The results found that increased time on social media has a negative impact on learning. Therefore, the researchers concluded that college students should aim to balance social media and academic activities.
Overview of Social Media for Church Youth Workers
This document discusses using social media for youth ministry. It provides an overview of what social media is, how youth are using it, and some basic principles and ways to get started using social media for youth outreach. The document notes that many youth spend time on sites like Facebook and engaging them where they are online could help increase a church's digital literacy and connect with young people. It provides some statistics on youth media usage and growth of Facebook before recommending creating accounts on sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and blogs as initial ways to engage youth through social media.

The document discusses a study that surveyed students at the University of Ilorin, Nigeria on their use of mobile phones in lecture rooms. The study found that most students use their mobile phones for various purposes like sending messages, browsing the internet, playing games, and listening to music during lectures. The use of mobile phones was found to distract students and negatively impact their attention and concentration. The study also found no significant gender difference in mobile phone usage during lectures. The implications of these findings are that mobile phone use in lecture rooms can disrupt the teaching and learning process and affect students' academic commitment and performance. The study recommends providing guidance to students on appropriate mobile phone use.
EdTEch 2 : Lesson 3 and 4
The document discusses the benefits of technology and how daily exposure to devices like computers and phones can stimulate brain development by strengthening neural connections. It also notes that the current technological revolution is creating an intellectual revolution that is faster and better than previous changes. The document suggests that what older generations believe may not apply to new generations, especially regarding traditional value systems, due to changes created by the information age.
Lesson 4 bridging the generation gap
The document discusses the generation gap between older and younger generations, particularly in the context of technology and education. It notes differences in manner of dressing, socializing, courtship, and marriage between old and new generations. In education, a large gap also exists due to differences in access to technology between schools in developed and developing countries. To bridge this gap, the document argues that schools need to incorporate technology skills and address differences in values systems, as the new generation will face a digital future. It emphasizes that technology skills must be taught in schools today otherwise schools will fail to prepare students.
Social media for teaching, learning and counseling
This document discusses the rise of social media and digital technologies over the past 10 years and their growing role in education. It notes that smartphones, apps, YouTube, Facebook, and other platforms did not exist 10 years ago but are now widely used both socially and for educational purposes. The document argues that this digital revolution has created opportunities for new forms of "digital pedagogy" and more engaging immersive learning experiences for students compared to traditional printed textbooks.

Social media allows for consumer-generated content that is easy to share with little or no cost. It enables people to share information with friends and colleagues over the Internet using social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, and Twitter, which facilitate interaction and conversation. Social media is important because the average young person in America spends over 7 hours a day on electronic devices like phones, computers, and TV, and those aged 16-24 have come to expect information to be brief, instant, and constantly available through growing up online.

It also notes that the current technological revolution is creating an intellectual revolution that is faster and better than previous changes. The document suggests that what older generations believe may not apply to new generations, especially regarding traditional value systems, due to changes created by the information age.
Lesson 4 bridging the generation gap
The document discusses the generation gap between older and younger generations, particularly in the context of technology and education. It notes differences in manner of dressing, socializing, courtship, and marriage between old and new generations. In education, a large gap also exists due to differences in access to technology between schools in developed and developing countries. To bridge this gap, the document argues that schools need to incorporate technology skills and address differences in values systems, as the new generation will face a digital future. It emphasizes that technology skills must be taught in schools today otherwise schools will fail to prepare students.
Social media for teaching, learning and counseling
This document discusses the rise of social media and digital technologies over the past 10 years and their growing role in education. It notes that smartphones, apps, YouTube, Facebook, and other platforms did not exist 10 years ago but are now widely used both socially and for educational purposes. The document argues that this digital revolution has created opportunities for new forms of "digital pedagogy" and more engaging immersive learning experiences for students compared to traditional printed textbooks.

Social media allows for consumer-generated content that is easy to share with little or no cost. It enables people to share information with friends and colleagues over the Internet using social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, and Twitter, which facilitate interaction and conversation. Social media is important because the average young person in America spends over 7 hours a day on electronic devices like phones, computers, and TV, and those aged 16-24 have come to expect information to be brief, instant, and constantly available through growing up online.

1. Individuals have different learning styles based on their innate cognitive systems and life experiences. No two people learn the same way.
2. The brain needs certain inputs like water, oxygen, and stimulation to function well. It also benefits from repetition, strong associations, patterns, and positive reinforcement.
3. Modern theories of intelligence reject the idea of a single measurable intelligence, and instead see intelligence as comprising multiple capacities or dispositions that are contextual.

Technology: driver, solution or symptom?
Keynote, "Enhancing Professional Learning and Teaching Practice through Technology", Writtle College, 4th June, 2010.
Oliver writtle 2010
Technology is often presented as either driving educational change or as a solution to problems in education. However, the document argues that a more nuanced view is needed. Drawing on various studies and theories, it suggests that how technology is adopted and used in practice reveals the priorities and values of educators. While technology may transform operational practices, the overall aims and roles of educators often persist. So technology use should be seen as a political issue, reflecting deeper choices about learners and institutions.

At the crossroads of technology
http://www.nclca.org/2011conference/pre-con-C.html
Lisa D'Adamo-Weinstein
Past President, NCLCA
Technology is present in our everyday lives from e-mail to e-Commerce from Internet to Instant Messaging from Youtube videos to video conferencing from social networking to Skyping from texting to online textbooks. Technologies bring together the seemingly disparate concepts of ease and complexity. Compared to just ten years ago, we have much more ease in accessing information, resources, and multimedia, but keeping up with emerging technologies can be complex and overwhelming. Knowing what technologies your students have and how they can be leveraged to increase students' success in college can be intimidating. Emerging technologies such as social networking, multi-media sharing, collaborative workspaces, and mobile technologies are significantly changing the nature of learning and learner expectations for interaction, access, and engagement. Learning center professionals need to leverage emerging technologies in ways that can enhance they ways in which we deliver services, create resources, market our centers, manage and train staff, and evaluate our centers. This pre-conference institute will address the following:
Provide a practical guide for how to best understand and evaluate the usefulness of emerging technologies;
Introduce participants to some free technology resources that can help learning center professionals maximize their resources and outreach to students;
Discuss best practices in implementing technology innovations in learning centers; and
Help participants devise a plan for how to choose the technology tools that will help them meet their goals in managing their learning center.

What does studying technology tell us about Higher Education?
From email to word processors to web sites, technology has become an integral part of Higher Education. It has been a mainstay of government educational policy for decades, and has featured in HE policy since at least 1965. Yet strangely, studies of technology often remain detached from wider educational research. In this session, I will explore some of the reasons for this, outlining the kinds of work on learning and technology that are being undertaken. I will also introduce some less common perspectives and approaches, which show how technology can act as an important site for understanding wider educational concerns.

Rubrics Overview
A rubric is a tool used to assess student performance on assignments and provide feedback. It defines the expectations and objectives of the assignment and describes what constitutes high quality performance. Developing rubrics with students helps them understand what is expected of their work. Using rubrics provides specific feedback and makes grading more consistent and objective. It also helps students understand how to improve by focusing on the objectives. There are different types of rubrics such as numeric scales and qualitative descriptions. Regardless of the type, rubrics should clearly define the performance levels so students understand how their work will be evaluated.
Evaluation Rubrics
This document discusses evaluation rubrics and provides guidance on how to create them. It defines a rubric as a set of criteria used to evaluate student work. It emphasizes that rubrics should clearly define performance levels and provide students with clear feedback. The document then provides examples of different rubric formats and discusses how to design rubrics, including identifying important evaluation categories and defining different performance levels for each category. It also provides tips on using rubrics to grade student work.
The Progressive Education Tradition
Progressive education began in the early 20th century as a reform movement aimed at moral and social transformation through child-centered educational approaches. It grew from the philosophies of thinkers like John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Major early proponents included John Dewey and Maria Montessori. In the 1930s, the Eight-Year Study found that progressive education was as effective at preparing students for college as traditional methods. While progressive education waned in popularity in the 1950s, many of its values and approaches saw a resurgence in the 1960s and continue to influence education today.
Intro to Curriculum Design
The document provides guidance on effective curriculum design. It defines key terms like generative topic, essential question, and assessment. It recommends designing curriculum backwards, starting with identifying the overall point and desired understandings, then determining acceptable evidence and assessments, and finally planning learning experiences and instructional tasks. It discusses assessing student learning and understanding rather than making evaluations. It also presents examples of essential questions and provides models for curriculum planning and unit design.

Technology and the Culture of Learning, 2004
- 1. TECHNOLOGY AND THE CULTURE OF LEARNING Peter Gow Independent Schools Forum November 10, 2004
- 2. In a survey of technology innovators, “Nobody cites technology as a tool for thinking better” -- Robert Buderi, editor of M.I.T. Technology Review
- 7. And remember this picture from your viewbook of 1992?
- 8. Schools that dragged their feet or hoped to wait out the “fad” did so at their peril Although they may have dodged the fatal attraction of an early commitment to a dead-end technology
- 13. Three Premises How can we begin to analyze the total impact of technology on the landscape of education and the culture of schools?
- 14. And possibly a fourth: Educators tend to invest their thinking about change with moral value--a good/bad, as opposed to an effective/ineffective, frame of reference
- 15. PREMISE #1. In spite of our best efforts, technology has succeeded in breaching all barriers between schools and The World. Our little utopias want to control all the inputs, but technology has made this impossible
- 21. PREMISE #2. By making many tasks much easier, technology has moved us toward taking on more of them We can generate, process, and disseminate ideas swiftly and efficiently, freeing us to think up more work to do
- 25. PREMISE #3. Technology inevitably carries us along unseen pathways, and its protean nature makes it difficult to predict or control But we are obliged to attend to technology and its development in order to avoid expensive, or even fatal, errors
