Technology use involves effectively employing technology to teach skills, while technology integration is incorporating technology resources and practices into daily classroom routines, work, and management. Technology integration is the first step to technology use, as students need technology integrated in the classroom to have a purpose for its use. While new technologies can be integrated, it does not guarantee they will be used. Technologies like computers, software, smartboards, and handheld devices are good to integrate in order to use technology for expression, problem solving, organization, research, and sharing information.

How to create a broader, fairer and smarter education system?Jisc
Speaker: Joysy John, director of education, Nesta.
In a world that is rapidly changing, how do we create an education system that prepares all learners to thrive in the future world of work?
Nesta's research on the future of skills shows that skills like creativity, communication, problem-solving and resilience will be more important than ever. Making more effective use of technology and data can help make education more convenient, accessible and effective. Businesses, academia and government will need to work in partnership to ensure that the education system is fit for the future.
Technology is important in education for several reasons:
1) It promotes equality by providing disadvantaged students access to the same educational resources as their peers through technology.
2) Technology prepares students for their professional futures, as technology will be integral to every career.
3) Mobile technology allows learning to extend beyond the classroom by enabling students to learn anywhere.
4) Technology provides instant feedback on student progress, which increases motivation to improve.
What is effective technology integration for 21st centurychrishimbashi
The document discusses effective technology integration for 21st century learners. It defines 21st century skills as information, media and technology skills including information literacy, media literacy, and ICT literacy. It states that technology integration provides great benefits when implemented easily and maintains student engagement through balance, assessment, and guidance. It emphasizes supporting technology integration through professional development and systematic change, and applying technology to enrich the curriculum.
The document discusses the digital transformation of education through technology. It notes that while hardware and connectivity in schools have increased, technology has not significantly improved educational outcomes. Barriers to effective technology integration include teachers needing more training to develop strong digital skills and understanding of new pedagogies. Students also have varying degrees of digital literacy. The document concludes that investments should focus on teacher professional development, using technology strategically in ways that enhance learning, and developing new interactive and collaborative instructional designs.
School administrators need strong technology skills to support teachers and students, but many lack these skills due to factors like growing up before the technology revolution and limited training opportunities. To improve their skills, administrators should self-assess their abilities, seek out available training programs, stay up to date on technology changes, and lead by example through their own technology use. They can then help provide technology professional development for teachers and help the whole school integrate technology effectively.
The document discusses integrating technology into education. It argues that computers are tools that can enhance learning rather than subjects on their own. While schools are not spending enough to ensure all students have access to computers, technology can excite students by giving them an audience and does not diminish traditional skills. Standards like the National Educational Technology Standards and programs like Apple Classrooms of Tomorrow have found that with clear goals and design principles, technology adoption in schools can progress from initial struggles to appropriation of tools to changed instructional methods that open up learning.
Speaker: Patrick McGrath, education technology specialist, Texthelp.
The digital age we live in brings expectations from our students. Their daily interactions with technology are highly personalised, collaborative, communicative and full of potential learning opportunities. The challenge for educators is not about ability or access, it’s about context. How can we leverage these tools, and grab the opportunities that technology provide us all, but in a way that has a positive, measurable impact on teaching and learning?
In this short lightning session Patrick McGrath will work through recent research that highlights where technology gaps exist between practitioners and students. Attendees will leave with a proven, practical framework template that's evidenced by best practice example which can be adopted to help embrace technology as an integrated part of learning.

The strategic indicators of digital transformation in education Reka Racsko
Digital transformation of technological and methodical culture in education is highly topical from several aspects. Info-communicational strategies have already issued an action plan containing several points to be implemented in order to create digital state in the forthcoming years. In our present lecture we try to determine the indicators, which examine the selected contents by placing electronic learning environment (ELE) into focus, using tool system of comparative pedagogy, creative methods and document- and content analysing strategies. These aspects can be divided into four major intersections forming the changing structure of content analysis: pedagogy and frames of ELE; circumstances of introducing ELE, supporting systems; role, attitude and competences of human capital; sustainability. When selecting theoretical sample, multi-dimensional sample-taking is applied since time-, spacial, organisational-, administrative- and social scope is taken into consideration as well.
The document discusses the difference between using technology and integrating technology in the classroom. Using technology refers to simply employing tools like PowerPoint for lectures, while integration means incorporating technology into assignments and lessons in a way that enhances learning. Integration allows students to use technology themselves to gain knowledge, rather than just being presented information through technology. The document argues integration is important because students today expect interactive, on-demand learning that matches their technology skills, and integrating technology better prepares them for the 21st century economy.
The document discusses challenges and opportunities that technology enhanced learning (TEL) brings to higher education, including personalized adaptive learning and new approaches to assessment, and identifies relevant pedagogies for flexible learning delivery using TEL. It also addresses how technology can transform both how teaching is done through influences on pedagogy and what is taught by changing content, as well as the learning environments and contexts. The document provides guidance on designing learning and assessment for a digital age using the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework.

ABSTRACT
New technologies and the knowledge economy are destabilising
graduate professions, with artificial intelligence and the analysis of
‘big data’ making significant impacts on formerly secure jobs.
Blockchain technology, offering automated secure credentialling
of undergraduate students’ activities and achievements, may significantly erode existing systems of assessment. The challenge for
universities will be not only to maintain the relevance of their
curricula but also to manage erosion of their current near-monopoly in awarding degrees. This paper envisions a landscape in
which universities must outsource parts of their course delivery
and assessment in order to remain competitive. It examines a
potentially sustainable mission strategy: to move away from narrow academic disciplines towards an authentic learning curriculum
focusing on the development of students as whole persons with
rounded educations. This paper examines implications for the
academy of the convergence of artificial intelligence, data analytics and blockchain technology.

Higher education: harness the power of cloudAngela Gardner
In order to retain and recruit
students, higher education
institutions must position themselves
as experts in the learning network
and find more cost-effective ways
to implement IT services. It is time
to take the financial and structural
pressure off of college IT staff by
steering away from the burdensome
cost of maintenance and upgrades,
long lead times for infrastructure
improvements and incompatibilities
between systems and tools.
Moving a system to the cloud can
reduce the cost of ownership by
20 percent. Federal agencies have
already reduced their operating costs
by 30 percent.5 Colleges can expect
to see similar results. The cloud also
allows institutions to pay for what
they use versus building capacities
that are largely unexploited.

When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
