TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING 2 DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF TECHNOLOGY Technology as the use of gadgets, tools, or equipment to perform a task expediently and efficiently. - It is the knowing, making, modifying, and using of tools, machine, techniques, crafts, systems, and methods of organization in order to solve a problem, improve a preexisting solution to a problem, achieve a goal, handle an applied input/output relation or perform a specific function. Technology as the collection of tools, including machinery, modifications, arrangements, and procedures -This refers to reliable devices that enable one to make presentations repeatedly. Other gadgets as technology. - Some people need to use gadgets or tools to perform home chores faster like washing machine, rice cooker, hair blower, electric fan etc. The Teacher as a technology -Most important technology asset is the teacher. CONCEPTS OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY Educational technology as the selection, development, managing and use of appropriate technological processes and resources. Educational technology as the choice of appropriate principles in the preparation and utilization of conventional and non-conventional technology tools as well as traditional and alternative teaching strategies. 5 DOMAINS OF TECHNOLOGY Design Development Utilization Evaluation Management DOMAIN 1: DESIGN Establishing a framework to guide in planning the educational technology. The theory and practice of design includes instructional system design, Instructional Strategies, and Learner’s Characteristics TECHNOLOGY THEORY CONSTRUCTIVISM 1. Constructivism provides representation of the reality. Designing programs can be meaningful if the learner experienced the activities which are familiar and real. 2. Constructivism represents the natural complexity of the real world. Design the life cycle of a butterfly starting from a worm to a full-blown butterfly. 3. Constructivism represents authentic tasks which focus on contextualizing rather than abstracting. The teacher can design evaluation tools with the use of samples for very well made cell phone holder made from beads, satisfactory made cell phone holder from beads and poorly made cell phone holder out of beads. 4. Constructivism provides real world case-based learning environment rather than predetermined instructional event. 5. Constructivism fosters reflective practice. 6. Constructivism promotes context and content. DOMAIN 2: DEVELOPMENT The theory and practice of development of educational technology includes print technologies, audio technologies, still visuals, audio-visual technologies, information and communication technologies, electronic technologies, and integrated technologies. DOMAIN 3: UTILIZATION The Theory and practice on utilization of educational technology includes media utilization, implementation, institutionalization and policies and regulation DOMAIN 4: MANAGEMENT The theory and practice on management of educational technology includes project management, resources management, management of delivery and diffusion of innovation. DOMAIN 5: EVALUATION The theory and practice of evaluation of educational technology includes problem analysis, measurement, formative evaluation, and summative evaluation. TECHNOLOGY FOCUS The focus on integration of technology will be on facilitating and enhancing the teaching-learning episodes undertaken by both the teachers and the students. TECHNOLOGICAL COMPETENCE Refers to the ability to use with ease and confidence the equipment, tools or gadgets mentioned above. HISTORY OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY AND INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY STONE AGE Could be shown by the ignition of fire by rubbing two stones. Creation of hand-made weapons, manufacturing of utensils using stones, and the use of clothing from animal skin and fur. Stone-age people also developed canoe-ship technology which enabled them to travel across the ocean. BRONZE AGE Development of agricultural technology fishing techniques and domesticating animals Establishment of permanent homes Developed metal technology using copper and bronze. IRON AGE The people made progress by resorting to iron smelting technology since iron was cheaper than bronze. This age was the last period prior to the discovery of writing. EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY DURING THE ANCIENT PERIOD PAUL SAETTLER (2004) He traced the development of educational technology during the ancient civilization Tribal Priest introduced bodies of knowledge and ancient culture, and introduced sign writing or pictographs to record or transmit information. PICTOGRAPHS A drawing of ideas like house, fruits, vegetables, events and other thoughts and ideas. HARAPPAN PEOPLE Important example of ancient language development whose writing was described as pictographic script. CHINESE CIVILIZATION Contributed technology like paper, seismological detectors, toilet paper, matches, wheelbarrow, parachute, natural gas as fuel, map and gun powder. EGYPTIAN LANGUAGE One of the longest, surviving, and used languages in the world. Their script was made up of pictures of the real things like birds, animals, different tools etc. HIEROGLYPH These are the pictures found in Egyptian languages. There are about 500 hieroglyphs which are known as hieroglyphics EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY DURING MEDIEVAL AND MODERN PERIOD Development of printing technology Invention of printing press took place in approximately 1450 AD by Johannes Gutenberg Educational technology was associated with simple aids like charts and pictures. In 1873, educational technology paved its way to be known as audio-visual education MARIA MONTESSORI Renowned child educator Introduced Montessori Method MONTESSORI METHOD A graded designed activities to provide for the proper sequencing of subject matter for each individual learner. CHARLES BABBAGE He designed a general-purpose computing device that laid the foundation of the modern computer in 1883. GERMANY Where the first practical use of regular television broadcast happened. BERLIN Where the Olympic games in 1936 were shown on television. In 1950, open circuit television began to broadcast entertainment. In 1960, television was used in education. In 1966, O.K Moore developed a talking type tutorial Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI). Since 1974, computers are used in schools, colleges, and universities. BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION Started school broadcast in 1920. BENJAMIN BLOOM In 1956, he Introduced the taxonomy of educational objectives. Educational technology begun in 1960 from America, to Russia and now it has reached to England, Europe, and India. MICRO TEACHING TECHNIQUE Was first adopted by Dwayne and his co-workers at Stanford University in USA. ELECTRONICS Is the main technology being developed in the beginning of the 21st century. EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY It is the used of technology which is based on the specific needs and requirements of education to address education-related problems to facilitate the implementation and evaluation of human learning. 5 STAGES OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY STAGE 1 Associated with the use of aids like charts, maps, symbols, models, specimens and concrete materials. Educational Technology referred to audio-visual aids. STAGE 2 Refers to the introduction of electronics through the sophisticated hardware and software. Use of varied audio-visual gadgets like projector, tape recorder, radio and television. STAGE 3 Revolved around the use of communication enhancement equipment to promote mass media for instructional purposes. Computer- Assisted Instruction (CAI) became an important component of instruction. STAGE 4 Exemplified individualized teaching and learning with the used of programmed learning and programmed instruction. STAGE 5 Latest concept of educational technology which is influenced by the concept of system engineering or system approach which focuses on language laboratories, teaching machines, programmed instruction and the use of computer in instruction. HISTORY OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY (ICT) UNESCO described ICT as a tool and processes in accessing, retrieving, storing, organizing, manipulating, producing, presenting, and exchanging information by electronic and other automated means. 5 PHASES OF USING COMPUTERS IN EDUCATION LATE 1970’S-EARLY 1980’S Programming, drills, and practices Computers begun to use in schools. In early 1980’s, teachers taught ADP (automated data processing) through the use of Nokia MikroMikko. LATE 1980’S- EARLY 1990’S Computer-based training (CBT) with multimedia Golden era of CD-ROMs and multimedia computers Multimedia computers with advance graphics and sound came to market. EARLY 1990’S Internet-based learning (IBL) Third wave of using computers in education came with the adoption of World Wide Web. LATE 1990’S-EARLY 2000 E-learning Improvements were made on the internet-based training in the form of e-learning. LATE 2000 Social software + free and open content Blogs and wikis that are easily accessible even editable for sharing of ideas
