What is Study Technology?
Study Technology 1
• Study Technology is a learning how to
learn methodology which trains
learners to be self-learners who fully
understand and apply what they have
learned. It builds self-reliance and
competence. Learners retain their
knowledge and abilities gained.
Study Technology 2
Study Technology empowers educators to
increase the effectiveness of their
teaching.
Study Technology builds capacity in the
education system by enhancing the
capabilities of teacher and learner.
Study Technology 3
Study Technology is not Information
Technology and not English Language
training. It is a self-contained body of
knowledge about how to learn and can
be used to learn these and any other
subjects and and to overcome the Barriers
Study.
Study Technology 4
Education is about more than gaining
knowledge
Excellence in education is in itself a
moral value and a discipline
Education is a privilege as well as a
right and brings responsibility to
others as well as personal success

Testimonials
Testimonial 1
In spite of the fact that I’m in the field of education, I
have a deep feeling I need to know and to learn more
and more about how to teach and how to cure the
different barriers to learning that may happen to my
students.
Fortunately, this course has given us a chance, which I
hope may now be repeated, and has helped me to
increase my awareness in the field of education and
explained some phenomena that have happened to me
before in my study and my work life, and I hope to put
what I have already learned into action.
Thank you very much, H.S.I.
Testimonial 2
• I am now a different person than I was
three days ago. I feel bright and have
great confidence in myself. I also feel
more energetic; I feel that I can read any
book, study any article and, most
important, UNDERSTAND any piece of
work. S.M.G.
Testimonial 3
• Today, because I know how to know as a
teacher, no one can cheat me. I am now
able to test knowledge by application. I
now demand practical application to theory
because theory alone does not satisfy me.
I need DEMONSTRATION. S.M.G
Testimonial 4
This course made me revise my attitude
both as a learner and as a teacher, and I
hope I shall be able to perform better both
as a teacher to others and as a learner
myself. W.B.M.H.
