How are you guys? :D Welcome again. So, in
this opportunity i'll glad to tell you about the impact of technology in our
educational progress. Wish you enjoy it :D
Technology definition is the purposeful application of information in
the design, production,
and utilization of goods
and services, and in the organization of
human activities.
As we know, we almost use those thing to do homework or other activities like
searching for information or just comunicate with another people.
Technology used to support both teaching
and learning, technology infuses classrooms with digital learning tools, such
as computers and hand held devices; expands course offerings, experiences, and
learning materials; supports learning 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; builds 21st century
skills; increases student engagement and motivation; and accelerates learning.
Technology also has the power to transform teaching by ushering in a new model
of connected teaching. This model links teachers to their students and to
professional content, resources, and systems to help them improve their own
instruction and personalize learning.
There are many kind of technolgy used for
education :
1. Use of computers in the classroom: Computers have evolved and they have changed the
way they look and the way they function. Now days we have both desktop
computers and portable computers commonly known as notebooks or laptops. New
technologies have also emerged and birthed some new computer related gadgets
like the iPad or Galaxy tablet. These computers can be used by teachers to
assign work to students and study groups in a classroom.
2. Creating class websites and
blogs: It is very easy to create a
website or blog using WordPress or any other content management software.
Teachers can create class blogs were they post assignments. If the school has
no website sever to host these class blogs, the teacher can use free website
hosting services like wordpress.com or blogger.com.
3. Use of digital microphones in
the classroom: Big classrooms are
characterized by endless noise, so teachers can resort to these wireless
digital microphones.
4. Use of mobile devices: Teachers and students can use smart-phones for
academic purposes in the classroom.
5. Use of smart interactive
Whiteboards: Modern smart white boards
have a touch screen functionality, so the teacher can illustrate points using a
pen or their finger. Using a projector, teachers can display visual images on
these white boards which improves the learning process. Students will learn
more easily with visual images.
Online learning opportunities and the use
of open educational resources and other technologies can increase educational
productivity by accelerating the rate of learning; reducing costs associated
with instructional materials or program delivery; and better utilizing teacher
time.
