1. Who argued for a highly active and individualized pedagogical methods which place the student
at the center of the teaching-learning process?

answer:
John Dewey argued for a highly active and individualized pedagogical methods which place the student at the center of the teaching-learning process.

2. Describe a traditional classroom. (You may embed pictures or videos.)
answer:
Based on John Dewey's idea that a traditional classroom is like pouring water from a jug into cups, traditional classroom performs a learning process in which the teacher pours information to student learners. The classroom setting is usually arranged with neat columns and rows of chairs while the teacher stands in front or sits behind her desk reading the texts contain in the book in front of the class. Though it maintains classroom discipline and convenience for the teacher in controlling the classroom, it is still not the precise way because after spending so many minutes, the student learner's attention is no longer focusing on the teacher due to boredom, restlessness, tiredness and drowsiness. The student learners remain as passive recipients of information given by their teacher and viceversa , the teacher is considered as the sole provider of information.

3. Describe an SCL classroom. (You may embed pictures and videos.)

(Some micro lessons examples. Maybe you will need this some time.)
answer:
Student Centered learning classroom is a setting which performs the learning process with the help of I CT's and educational theory such as constructivism and cooperative learning. Desiring to gain effectiveness, efficiency and economy in administration and instruction is the basis of having this type of approach. The student learners do not remain passive recipients of information instead, they now become active learners who can interact with other learners and demonstrate independence and self-awareness in the learning process. Generally, there is a departure from traditional instruction and an arrival of a more flexible and constructive way of classroom instruction. Though it's modernizing the way of teaching but still the teacher is and will always be the facilitator,hence, he or she is irreplaceable.

summary.learnings and application for edtech 1

2010-03-18T07:23:00.000-07:00

Educational technology consist of different theory involving procedures, ideas, devices, and organization for analyzing problems, implementing, evaluating and managing solutions to those problems.It also consists of designs and environments that engage learners and reliable techniques or methods for engaging learning such as cognitive learning strategies and critical thinking skills. It has an integrated principles that explain and predict observed events. Educational technology is a field involved in applying a complex integrated process to analyze and solve problems in human learning. It is concerned with the practice of usung educational methods and resources for the ultimate goal of facilitating the learning process. It is the application of scientific findings in our method, process or procedure of working in the field of education in order for an effective learning. It embraces curriculum and instructional design, learning environment, theories of teaching learning. It is also a field study and a profession. It is the use of all human inventions for teachers to realize their mission to in order that students learn. There are other terms that are associated with educational technology in education, instructional technology and technology integration in education books, educational media. This is very important in educative process as we go in our teaching profession.

I have a lots of learning's that I gain in Educational Technology. I learned that through technology it can make our work easier and faster. Through technology we can discover new things from our inventions, it give us chance to explore something new. So in this aspects our critical thinking will be enhance. I learned also teaching with different modern strategies used such as teaching with contrived experience, teaching with dramatized experience and I know also the power of film audio. and television inside the classroom. I learned also different visual symbols that we can apply in our field of specialization being a teacher.

This learning's that I gained in educational technology 1 is very important if I am given a chance to become a teacher. I apply all this learning's to become an effective teacher. I will apply modern teaching methods and strategies that I am cited above in order for the learners to learn. I will employ activities that develop their thinking skills because being a teacher we should mold the mind of the learners correctly. In order to achieve this I will apply my learning's in EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY 1.

LESSON 5: THE CONE OF EXPERIENCE

2010-02-05T22:53:00.000-08:00

Lesson 5 is all about various instructional media which form part of the system approach to instruction in order to come up an effective learning.The cone of experience are arranged from the bottom upward of from the top down.These are verbal symbols, visual symbols, recording radio still pictures, dramatized experiences, contrived experiences, direct purposeful experiences. The cone of experiences is visual model a pictorial device that presents bands of experience arranged according to degree of abstraction and not degree of difficulty. I learn that all teaching and learning must move systematically from base to pinnacle, from direct purposeful experiences to verbal symbols. As an educator, learning's is very important to have an effective teaching to my learners because we know that it's a modern world..the learner's is the center of educational process.

Lesson 4: SYSTEMATIC APPROACH TO LEARNING

2009-12-23T04:40:00.001-08:00

The focus of systematic instructional planning is the student or what we call as Learner-Centered Approach. When we say systematic it is the process in teaching.This includes planning the instructional objectives that consider the student's needs, interest and readiness like reading, writing, interviewing, reporting or doing presentation, discussion, re fluting, dramatizing, visualizing, creating judging and evaluating. In this learning activities, it could really help a lot to the students to enhance their meta cognitive skills and critical thinking skills. There are also learning resources for instructional use like visual aids, televisions and computers.Technology has a great deal in teaching-learning process to attained the effective and efficient instructional objective. Someday i will apply this learning to have a creative way in facilitating learning to the learners and i will also use instructional materials and apply learning activities to the learners that each one of them do the task because in systematic approach are the primary customer of learning process.

Lesson 3: THE ROLES OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY IN LEARNING

2009-12-18T05:36:00.000-08:00

Technology can play either traditional role or constructivist role. Traditional perspective for me serves as a teacher, the learner depend on what the teacher being imparted to them, or what we called "spoon feeding", while in constructivist perspective, technology is an instrument or tools for the learning to gather, think, analyze, synthesize information and construct meaning with what technology presents. Technology like computer is seen as a productivity tool. I have a lot of learning's that I get from this lesson and I apply this learning for my future career to encourage the students to do the task almost of the time in learning process.

Lesson 2: TECHNOLOGY: BOON OR BANE?

2009-12-18T05:01:00.000-08:00

Technology is either a boon or bane to education and it will depend on how man use technology. Technology is a blessing for man as boon when we use it in a proper way. As we all know in lesson 1 that there are a lot of things that technology can do especially in educational process,it's importance to become stimulating, exciting and enjoying when we use this technology inside the classroom and for me that is a great blessing of technology to everyone of us. In contrast boon also can be bane or can cause harmful to use if we don't us it in a proper way, technology becomes a detriment to learning and development like when the learner surfs the internet for pornography it will cause trouble with his development and this will affect his/her studies and this can cause detriment of learning process. As an educator someday I will apply the technology as a boon or blessing to our learners we see to it that we contribute them to become caring, relating, thinking, reflecting and analyzing. We must not abuse or misuse technology so that we can't contribute to our learners bond information that can cause distractions for their studies that can ruin their individual identity.

Lesson 1: MEANING OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY

2009-12-18T04:35:00.000-08:00

Lesson 1 is all about the meaning of Educational Technology which means the art as craft of responding to our educational needs, especially nowadays that we are living in a modern world, a world where technology is very high, a world of invention. Computer is one of the invention that can help the students to learn a lot of things to discover the world more easier and faster. Through technology also it is advantageous to both teachers and learners in the same that it could really help a lot in using educational methods and resources for the ultimate goal of facilitating the learning process, in order to come up an effective and efficient larning. In coming years if i would be gven a chance to be an educator I will use this method/strategies to implement the theory and practical application of educational technology in order to enhance one's ability of the learner and to fully grasp the information/knowledge that I am going to impart for them.
