summary.learnings and application for edtech 1

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.

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.
