Tecnology evalution and education
- 8. A change in teaching techniques
- 11. Education is changing •Teachers no longer primarily lecture from the front of the class •Students don't fervently copy the instructor’s words down, read text, and memorize material for a test •Teachers needs to keep their classroom interested and engaged •Classrooms are being transformed by devices and the cloud.
- 12. Learning outside classroom Just as work is no longer beholden to the office, learning is no longer restricted to the classroom. Schools are creating a learning community that stretches beyond the school grounds and support students and teachers whenever and wherever they are.
- 13. History of Classroom Technology In the Colonial years, wooden paddles with printed lessons, called Horn-Books, were used Over 200 years later, in 1870, technology advanced to include the Magic Lantern By the time the Chalkboard came around in 1890 Pencil in 1900 Radio in the 1920s overhead projector in 1930 Ballpoint pen in 1940 and headphones in 1950. Videotapes arrived on the scene in 1951 The photocopier (1959) and handheld calculator (1972) 1980’s entrance and significance of personal computers
- 14. Development Swedish company has developed a digital, cheat-proof testing platform that saves teacher grading time and may be the biggest test- grading advancement since 1972. Their digital testing tools are already in more than 1,000 schools in 45 countries and they’re coming to the US. It won’t be long before students at all levels will be taking pop quizzes and final exams on work-tracking, instantly gradable digital devices.
- 17. The Internet
- 18. Internet Internet has become an increasingly important feature of the learning environment for teenagers. It offers variety of benefits in the educational sphere. Online classes, interactive teaching and streamlined research methods are just a few advantages of the internet’s educational growth.
- 19. Benefits •Improve Reading Skills •Needs of learners are easily accommodated. •New information is directly funneled to us •Money Saving •Learn anywhere, anytime. •Online material allows people to re-evaluate their knowledge •Enhanced Lessons •Study and Research •Communication •Accessibility •Distance education •Increase student motivation •Introduce more teaching strategies and learning activities •Instant Access to Knowledge •Gain from others' knowledge and experiences •Share ideas •Learn about the many diverse cultures •Benefits for parents and teachers
- 20. Drawbacks of Internet in classrooms •Cheating is a risk that the use of the Internet in the school poses to young people. •Another disadvantage of the use of the Internet in the school is extracurricular-activities that students devote their time to during lessons, in particular face book, although it is not allowed. •Technical problems are also a major disadvantage of internet. •Another disadvantage of the use of the Internet is biased and untrustworthy information on the Internet. •Teachers/students come to rely too much on the Internet in their planning/teaching. •If the Internet is used as the main teaching tool, there is a risk that young people acquire a negative attitude to long texts and books.
- 23. What is Technology? Technology is the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry. OR The branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied sciences is technology. Socio-cultural diversity Socio-cultural diversity is a framework that emphasizes the responsibility of social and cultural context in human learning.
- 24. Culture diversity in schools Monoculture Whether considering racial, ethnic, religious, socioeconomic, or gender differences, a monoculture school only represents the interests and identities of the dominant group. Similarly, a monoculture school from a technology perspective may be a teacher- centered, content-driven curriculum where technology simply digitizes existing tasks. Multicultural As schools begin to add multicultural content to the curriculum, or design a multicultural course, they progress to the tolerance phase. The goal of a multicultural curriculum is to ensure that all students experience educational equality.
- 25. Implications of socio-cultural diversity from the perspective of teacher Teachers have to: •Give pupils equal treatment. •Ensure that pupils socialize and interact without cultural restrictions. •Respect students.
- 26. Implications of socio-cultural perspectives of family perspectives •Express your concerns if you see different discipline consequences from different group of students. •Parents should advice their kids to respect the others who are different from them.
- 28. National Educational Technology Standards for Students These standards are divided into six broad categories. Teachers can use them as guidelines for planning technology-based activities.
- 29. Standards For Students •Basic Operations and Concepts Use telecommunications to collaborate, publish, and interact with peers, experts, and other audiences. •Social, Ethical, and Human Issues Understand the ethical, cultural, and societal issues related to technology. •Technology Productivity Tools Use technology tools to enhance learning, increase productivity, and promote creativity. •Technology Communications Tools Use telecommunications to collaborate, publish, and interact with peers, experts, and other audiences. •Technology Research Tools Use technology tools to process data and report results. •Technology Problem-Solving and Decision-Making Tools Use technology resources for solving problems and making informed decisions in the real world.
- 31. National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers •Technology Operations and Concepts • Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences •Teaching, Learning, and the Curriculum •Assessment and Evaluation •Productivity and Professional Practice •Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues
- 32. National Educational Technology Standards for Administrators •Leadership and Vision •Learning and Teaching •Productivity and Professional Practice •Support, Management, and Operations •Assessment and Evaluation •Social, Legal, and Ethical Issues
- 33. Future of technology in schools
- 34. The future of education technology is all about the cloud and anywhere access.
- 35. In the future, education will no longer be restricted to formalized institutes like schools and classes. Using AR, cloud computing, online social networking learning can take place outside the traditional classroom.
- 36. In Future Classrooms •Students will each have a digital device. •Homework and projects will be submitted online. •Grades will be posted online immediately. •Classes will be available online via YouTube or Google •Keyboarding will be taught and reinforced in all classes. •All students will be able to share their screens with others. •Students will complete their class work knowing it will be shared with classmates and other interested teachers. •Students will take digital notes on a tablet or an iPad. •Students will use technology to execute tasks at every opportunity.
- 38. Preparing for the future •Knowing the potential of the technology available is half the battle. •The other half is deciding how best to apply these technologies in a classroom setting. •The education sector must be prepared to meet the increasing power and data requirements in a way that is both cost- effective and environmentally sound.
- 39. Will technology replace the teachers in future? •Technology has, no doubts, brought a lot of relief for the human kind, but that doesn’t mean it can overpower or substitute humans. And, the major cause for this is its inability to interact with humans. •However, no matter how advanced the technology gets, the fact is that it can never fill the role of a teacher.
