like the one in the video?
Do you WANT your classes to
be like the one in the video?

Hands Up-Stand Up-Pair Up

What makes you excited,
nervous, or scared in using
technology in class?

Even students feel the same!!!

Education needs to move WITH technology

without losing its bedrock beliefs - its main
solid foundations and principles.
Technology is a tool constantly changing
to improve the life of students and teachers.
Integrating technology tools in learning opens
up for more possibilities - for students and
teachers.

Technology Integration:
Back to Basics

Technology Integration: Back to Basics

IS NOT

IS

putting computers in the

classroom without
student or teacher training.

using computer skills and tech

devices in different subject
areas for meaningful learning

just teaching the students how to

use Office or Adobe or any other
software or applications

using technology tools in

different areas of learning,
such as in assessment,
classroom management

simply installing electronic

encyclopedias or databases in
computers

using software or applications so

students learn to use computers
flexibly, purposefully and
creatively - making products that
were unimaginable.

Technology Integration: Back to Basics

Technology integration should enhance and
support learning - aiming for the achievement
of the learning goals in the curriculum.

Technology integration is having the

curriculum drive technology usage, not
having technology drive the curriculum.

Why Integrate Technology in the Curriculum?

the integration of technology with classroom
content improves student achievement. Thoughtfully
planned, such lessons engage students to a higher
degree than traditional teaching and lead to the
development of 21st-century skills such as complex
thinking, creative problem solving, and collaboration.

Technology in the Primary Grades. ISTE

Education), 2007.

Why Integrate Technology in the Curriculum?

to prepare students for complex, real-life

problems that are technology-based

to help students improve in the following areas:

active engagement, collaboration and interaction
with other learners, solving real-life challenges.

to develop teachers as facilitators of learning guiding and coaching students as they go through
more student-centered learning processes

Technology Integration: Back to Basics

Its not using technology for technologys

sake. It is using technology for learnings
sake.

http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~coesyl-p/principle3-article2.pdf

STOPLIGHT: QUESTIONS TO ASK

Can technology replace the

teacher inside the classroom?

What is the role of the

teacher then?
http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~coesyl-p/principle3-article2.pdf

Before proceeding,
let us remind ourselves of the values of
openness and of learning from the
wisdom of tradition.

Learning is not anymore confined inside the four walls of

the classroom. Learning is mobile. It can happen anywhere.
Students can learn anything from anybody, even from the
internet. What is the role of the teacher then?

#mobilelearning
#internetconnectivity

#One2One - Students are

required to bring a tablet or
laptop of the same kind.
Some schools enter into
agreement with device
providers or might simply ask
the students to purchase the
required device on their own.

#BYOD - Students are

allowed to bring any
digital device that can
help them in their tech
sessions in class.
