BULABOG I. II. : : Mr and Ms Icon Literature 2016 Title RATIONALE As we all know, we are now in 21st century where technology is involve and innovation occurs. The k-12 is one of the examples of 21st century because in this day students concentrate to global competition. In line with this, the teachers are expected to embrace the 21st century learners by giving them the 21st century instructional materials. The English Department teachers took part in adapting and embracing innovations in teaching. Started from year 2015, the English Department has been using one (1) 42-inch LED TV in where the English teachers can use it in delivering her classes but it’s not enough to cater all English Teachers. This year 2016-2017, the department is proposing to purchase six (6) LED TV, if possible, to aid the needs of the teachers in her discussions in the 21st century world. How television inside the classroom helps in teaching-learning process? We’ve all heard the proverb: “Seeing is believing.” Research has shown that seeing is remembering, too. Marshall (2001) cites the conclusions of Wiman and Mierhenry (1969) who found that “…people will generally remember: 10% of what they read 20% of what they hear 30% of what they see and 50% of what they see and hear.” (https://www.dcmp.org/caai/nadh173.pdf). Classroom Technology enhances learning by: Allowing multiple teaching approaches, Improving flexibility in classrooms, Providing access to current information, Increasing teacher engagement, Sparking creativity, Encouraging student collaboration and participation (http://serc.carleton.edu/sp/library/media/why.html). The best teachers understand that even a perfect lesson plan won’t help students learn if they aren’t engaged. Keeping students actively involved in classroom activities that stimulate thinking, encourage interaction and support collaboration gets kids excited to learn. Televisions have been used in the classroom to augment teaching for more than fifty years for just this purpose. At first, TVs primarily provided recorded lectures and educational television programs. But classroom tech has come a long way in the last half century. Today’s educators bring new life to the classroom by integrating television with technology to create a more engaged classroom. Many of the teachers who bring tech into the classroom use one of three tools. Smart TVs are similar to traditional televisions, but they can connect to the Internet, allowing streaming of programs, videos and apps. Apple TVs are devices that, when used with an iPad and a projector or television screen, can stream like a Smart TV, but also allow all of the information on the iPad to be mirrored or shown on the projector. Interactive whiteboards, while not technically TVs, when connected with a projector and laptop, are often used interchangeably with the high tech TVs, replacing traditional whiteboards and DVD players (http://www.edudemic.com/5-ways-to-use-apple-tv-in- the-classroom/). In English subject, television is an excellent tool for illustrating the differences between literary genres, for example comparing a novel to its movie adaptation, or comparing a newspaper story to a television news story (http://www.corwin.com/upmdata/6635_tileston_9_ch_1.p). Why we choose LED TV? What are the features of LED backlit LCD TV’S? A LED TV achieves deeper blacks as well as emitting brighter images, thereby producing better contrast ratios; they are slimmer (especially edge-LED lighting system); they deliver better viewing angles than other LCD TV’s; LEDs are long-lasting; LED’s are more energy efficient than their CCFL counterparts, and better than plasma Tv’s and much better than CRT’s; LEDs don’t use mercury like some other backlighting methods. We can also use/connect USB’s and laptop on it (http://www.gizmag.com/what-is-an-led-tv/13099/). With the advocacy of the English teachers and English Club Officers 2016-2017, a project proposal is made for the purpose of generating funds to buy this type of equipment. “Campus Mr. and Ms. Literature 2016” is what we, English teachers and English Clubbers, believe to help us make our wish into reality. “Mr. and Ms. Icon of Literature 2016” is money generating project wherein students will give money to the contestants they like in every week until the canvassing day.
