INTRODUCTION
Advances in technology have had a profound effect the way we learn
and the way we teach. How many of the few can still remember the time
when finding information required them travelling for so long to go to a library
to do research? Before, students as how we called them, spend more time
in researching in library with the use of card catalogue and browsing through
numerous books just to find their topic. Nowadays, with the aid of information
technology, learners can go places in just a click of their gadgets to find
countless topics for their researches without living their comfort of learning.
As David Warlick says, “We need technology in every classroom and
in every student and teacher’s hand, because it is the pen and paper of our
time, and it is the lens through which we experience much of our world”

INPUT
Technology and Education
What is Technology? It comes from a latin word techne which means
a craftmanship or an art. So, technology deals with the study of making an
art that can be essential to anyone’s life, society and environment. The use
of technology most specially in teaching and learning makes things easier
and better.
What is Educational Technology? “It is the systematic application of
scientific knowledge about teaching and learning and conditions of learning
to improve the efficiency of teaching and learning” G.O.M. Leith (2015). It
is the study in facilitating learning and improving performance by creating,
using and managing appropriate technological processes and resources.
Educational technology therefore connotes two chief values ;
• How do they differ?

• Instructional Technology covers the

EDUCATIONAL processes and systems of learning and
TECHNOLOGY
instruction. It includes other systems used in the
process of developing human capability.
• Instructional Learning is an attempt to describe
how people and animals learn, thereby helping
us understand the inherently complex process of
INSTRUCTIONAL
learning.

Philosophical Framework in teaching Educational Technology

1. Constructivism - The learners will construct their own meaning from new
information, as they interact with reality or others with different perspectives
2. Cognitivism - It looks beyond behavior to explain brain-based learning.
Cognitivists consider how human memory works to promote learning.
3. Behaviorism - Learning is the acquisition of new behavior through conditioning.
So therefore, in general Educational Technology refers to the use of both physical
hardware and educational theory
Educational Technology includes, but is not limited to, software, hardware, as well
as Internet applications and activities.
Educational technology is most simply and comfortably defined as an array of tools
that might prove helpful in advancing student learning.
Several Discrete Aspects To Describe Educational Technology
1. As theory and practice of educational approaches,
2. Technological tools to media,
3. Learning Management System (LMS)
4. Education subject

Note: “Teaching takes place only when learning does no matter what the
teacher is doing inside the classroom if the student doesn’t learn something
significant, she is not teaching”

Benefits of Technology in Education
1. Instructional Effectiveness - Through multimedia students will be able to use more
of their senses through seeing, reading, hearing and experiencing
2. Active Learning – Learners will be able to play games, solve problems, and
stimulate environment through interactive Technologies
3. Critical Thinking – It connotes HOTS higher order thinking skills, technology serves
as a vehicles for exploring knowledge to support learning by constructing
4. Cooperative Learning – Leadership, teamwork, self esteem can boost learners
ego.
5. Communication Skills – Through integrating telecommunications pronunciation,
diction and enunciation will be enhance through the exposure to good and correct
materials
6. Multisensory Delivery -Since there are multiple channels of learning and
experiences their senses are involved, the more sense, the better assimilation of
knowledge and learning.
7. Multicultural Education – Telecommunications makes possible linkages to
National, Local and international.

Introduction
One of the most difficult and time-consuming part for a teacher is the preparation
of the lesson plan. What makes it difficult to do? Many would say that objective should
be the first to be filled in before the activity but others, plan the activities first before
generating its objectives. Either of the two, should I say, can work with as long as the
whole content of the plan synchronizes from the objective down to the assessment part.
The integration of the use of technology in teaching is a challenging role of a
teacher. It would simply need more time and effort for the preparation part, but
nonetheless, a bit easier during presentation part. Application of technology in teaching
adds attraction to the learners most specially this generation. The next question is when
and at what part of the lesson we will be integrating technology?
Input
Elements for Using Technology in Education
1. Motivation
Attainment of learner attention students enjoy watching situation where
they seemed to be the key players
Inspiring the learner through production of work
Increasing perceptions of learner control (creating diagrams and other
stimulating visual activities)

A B
2. Unique Instructional Capabilities (considering the four pillars of education)
Learners can easily link the information sources and other tools (hyperlink,
hypertext)
Learners can easily track progress (e-portfolio and others)
The learners can visualize problems and solutions (interactive visual
media)
The Learners can create their technology-based products

4. Increased Teacher productivity

Teachers can work with students by helping with production and record
keeping task
Teachers can provide more accurate information quickly
Teachers can provide a better-looking and student-friendly materials
Technology can help teachers in word processing, spreadsheet, data
base, grade book, graphics, desktop publishing, instructional
management, and test generation. Compilation of materials can lessen
their workload when they teach the same subject in the future.

5. Required skills for an information age

Visual Literacy

NOTE: “Technology will never replace great teachers, but technology in the
hands of a great teacher can be transformational” George Couros
