INTEGRATING TECHNOLOGY in INSTRUCTION 1 John Pisapia (1994) 2 International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) 3 Margaret Lloyd (2005) 4 Qiyun Wang and Huay Lit Woo (2007) 5 Bernard Bahati (2010) 6 UNESCO (2005) Various educators and researchers provided the following concepts and principles about integrating technology in instruction:
- 4. Integrating technology with teaching means the use of learning technologies to introduce, reinforce, supplement, and extend skills. FOR EXAMPLE: If a teacher merely tells a student to read a biok without any preparation for follow up activities that put the book in a pedagogical context, the book is not integrated. In the same way, if the teacher uses the computer to reward children by allowing them to play a game, the computer is not integrated. JOHN PISAPIA (1994)
- 5. computer science courses, computer-assisted instruction, and/or computer-enhanced or enriched instruction, matching software with basic skill competencies, and keyboarding with word processing followed up with presentation tools. Integrating technology into curricula mean different things: JOHN PISAPIA (1994)
- 6. The technology should become an integral part of how the classroom functions - as accessible as all other classroom tools. INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION (ISTE)
- 7. ICT integration encompasses an integral part of broader curriculum reforms which include both infrastructural as well as pedagogical considerations that are changing not only how learning occurs but what is learned. MARGARET LLOYD (2005)
- 8. Qiyun Wang and Huay Lit Woo (2007) Qiyun WANG Huay Lit Woo Integrating ICT into teaching and learning is a growing area that has attracted many educators’ efforts in recent years.
- 9. The process of integrating ICT in teaching and learning has to be done at both pedagogical and technological levels with much emphasis put on pedagogy. ICT integration into teaching-learning has to be underpinned by sound padagogical principles. BERNARD BAHATI (2010)
