The purpose of this study was to examine K-12 educators’ perceptions regarding the use of technology devices in the classroom, the benefits and drawbacks of the use of technology in education, and particularly the impact on students’ learning. For the purpose of this study, technology included only educational technology, i.e. internet
Technology can be used as a tool for establishing meaningful projects to engage students in critical thinking and problem solving. Technology can be used to restructure and redesign the classroom to produce an environment that promotes the development of higher-order thinking skills (Kurt, 2010). Technology also increases student collaboration.
Educational technology is an inclusive term for both the material tools and processes, and the theoretical foundations for supporting learning and teaching. Educational technology is not restricted to advanced technology but is anything that enhances classroom learning in the utilization of blended, face-to-face, or online learning. [12]
The technology of television has evolved since its early days using a mechanical system invented by Paul Gottlieb Nipkow in 1884. Every television system works on the scanning principle first implemented in the rotating disk scanner of Nipkow. This turns a two-dimensional image into a time series of signals that represent the brightness and ...
Nevertheless, inequalities persist. As the prevalence of technology in education grows, it will be important to continue to track equity not only in access but also in quality of access and frequency and competency of use. Explore the following resources to learn more about students’ access to, use of, and competency with education technology.
5 CONCLUSIONS. By integratng technology in STEM educaton, the program encouraged students to become self-motvated learners and researchers. For our summer program, we provided students the tools for independent research, study, and learning through a technology-rich lesson plan.
Learning by television is not a new phenomenon and, as an educational medium, it has gone through some severe growing pains. Unfortunately, while advances in technologies (cable, home recorders, satellites, teleconferencing) have contributed to an increase in the number of telecourses since the mid-1970s, faculty are often unprepared to teach these courses, and the institutions involved may be ...
Presents a debate on which technology will be in tomorrow's classrooms and the pros and cons of wiring classrooms and using a wireless network. Concluding comments address the likelihood, and desirability, of placing computers throughout the entire educational process and what types of computers and capabilities are needed.
