Lesson 4: SYSTEMATIC APPROACH TO LEARNING

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

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?

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

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.
