20. The Educational Technology course is designed to
prepare teachers for all different grade levels with
skills, concepts and understanding among other
skills to integrate technology in their lessons to
enhance learning as well as to make learning more
effective.
As an educator learning new tools in technology, I had the
opportunity to become an expert on, not only using
technology efficiently in the classroom with presentational
purposes, but also to develop my own activities which bring
as much educational information as fun to my class. My
most basic skills involve the use of PowerPoint and the
Internet in the classroom among others.
21. Upon completing this
course it was very
challenging at first given
the fact that I was
learning new tools in
technology, but with
determination and
perseverance I was able
to be successful at
gaining the knowledge
and skills I needed to
create these tools.
Completing this
course has afforded
me with a wealth of
knowledge on the
various tools I can use
in the classroom to
create meaningful
learning providing me
with the experience
and knowledge needed
to complete this
course.
22. Technology helps
provide students
with easy access
to information via
the Internet that
before involved
trips to libraries. In
addition, this
access to
information can be
free to students,
by utilizing
resources such as
Wikipedia in a
responsible
fashion.
My personal
observation has
showed me that
technology is a
positive tool in the
classroom. It brings
advantages in the
teaching process
both for educators
and for learners.
Motivation and
changes of attitude
arise when
efficiently employed.
While it is
important for
teachers to
understand that
they cannot
become
completely
dependent upon
technology as a
means to enhance
their own teaching
strategies, when
technology is
integrated into a
teacher’s
instructional
calendar it can be
a tremendous
benefit to students
in the classroom.
23. 3 QOUTATION S
ABOUT
EDUCATIONAL
TECHNOLOGY
“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
“Teachers
need to
integrate
technology
seamlessly
into the
curriculum
instead of
viewing it as
an add-on, an
afterthought,
or an event.”
– Heidi-
