TEACHING AND LEARNING WITH TECHNOLOGY: AN INTRODUCTION

MODULE OVERVIEW

If there is one thing that changed the world so fast, it is technology. While there exists technology in the
past as non-digital technology, the current digital technology has been a factor that shrunk the world and
made it flat. It has provided a new environment for learning; new ways teachers teach and new ways of how
learners learn. In the beginning it has created a divide between the digital natives and the digital immigrants.
However, as the years go by, such divide has become narrower and even blurred. This has led to the new
educational revolution in teaching and learning which has been triggered by technology and resulted to better
learning outcomes in the 21st century.

You, as a pre-service teacher is a part of this new educational revolution. In this module you will be able
to familiarize yourself with the standards that you must possess to become a better 21st century teacher. You
will learn the basic concepts of ICT that you will be dealing with.

As you accomplish each activity in this module, you will be able to maximize your understanding on how
technology directly affects the teaching and learning process.

MODULE LEARNING OBJECTIVES

At the end of this Module, you should be able to

1. Identify the competency standards of ICT for teaching and learning in the Pre-Service Teacher
Education.
2. Familiarize with the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards.
3. Define the basic terms of ICT conceptually and operationally.
4. Use the concepts and terms of ICT with peers; and
5. Identify the roles of technology in teaching and Learning.

ICT COMPETENCY STANDARDS FOR PHILIPPINE PRE-SERVICE TEACHER EDUCATION

)

Who is better equipped to handle the 21st century learners, a teacher with traditional technology or a
teacher with digital technology?

This question has been a debatable topic since the start of the 21 st century. However, the CHED and
UNESCO provided in 2017 the Policy Standards and Guidelines for Pre-Service Teacher Education. The
program outcomes for teacher education degrees clearly state that every future teacher must demonstrate
proficiency in the development and utilization of information, communication, and technology resources in
promoting quality teaching-learning process. To ensure that the program outcomes related to ICT shall be
achieved, competencies were identified to be developed by every pre-service teacher. The ICT Competency
Standards is made up of Seven Domains. Each domain has a set of competencies. The competencies are
expressed and desired learning outcomes. Becoming proficient in the different competencies will enable you
to handle learners of the 21st century in your future classroom.

List of domains and corresponding competencies are indicated below.

ICT Competency Standards for Pre-Service Teachers

Domain 1: Understanding ICT in Education

1.1 Demonstrate awareness of policies affecting ICT in Education
1.2 Comply with ICT policies as they affect teaching-learning
1.3 Contextualize ICT Policies to the learning environment

Likewise, the Department of Education issued DepEd Order 42. S.2017 mandating the use of the
Philippine Professional Standard for Teachers to start with the Beginning Teachers who are the fresh
graduates from the Teacher Education Program. The document includes showing of skills in the positive use
of ICT to facilitate teaching and learning and show skills in the selection development and use of the variety of
teaching-learning resources, including ICT to address learning goals. These competency standards to learn
and master will assure the 21st century learners in your class of a more enjoyable, creative, and innovative
ways in teaching and learning.

An international organization for educational technology called International Society for Technology in
Education (ISTE) established standards for both teachers and students. These standards were also referred
to in the development of the Philippine ICT Competency Standards which includes the following:

ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS*T)

Standard 1: Technology Operations and Concepts
Standard 2: Planning and Designing Learning Environment and Experiences
Standard 3: Teaching Learning and Curriculum
Standard 4: Assessment and Evaluation
Standard 5: Productivity and Professional Practice
Standard 6: Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues

Likewise, ISTE also develop standards even for students. These standards will be used as a guide by

teachers to plan technology-based activities in which students achieve success in learning communication
and life skills.

ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students (NETS*S)

Standard 1. Creativity and Innovation
Standard 2: Communication and Collaboration
Standard 3: Research and Information Fluency
Standard 4: Critical Thinking, Problem solving and Decision Making
Standard 5: Digital Citizenship
Standard 6: Technology Operations and Concepts

As Pre-Service Teacher Education Students now, you will have to master the knowledge and skills for
the standards for students. However, since you will become teachers in the future you should harness the
same knowledge and skills to become future teachers.

ROLES OF TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING

Are students of today interested to use technology to learn? Do teachers have the skills to use technology
to enhance their teaching? With the Fourth Industrial Revolution, nobody can deny the influence of technology
in our lives. As future teachers of the 21st century, it is high time that you prepare yourselves to integrate
technology in your classrooms. Using technology is a tool and a catalyst for change. What are the roles of
technology for teaching and learning?

As teaching and learning go together, let us explore what would be the roles of technology for teachers and

teaching and for learners and learning. Educational technology has three domains:

1. TECHNOLOGY AS A TUTOR - Together with the teacher, technology can support the teacher to
teach another person. Technology, when programmed by the teacher can be a shooter on its
own. The teacher will simply switch on or switch off radio programs television programs or play
DVDs or CDs that contain educational programs. There are online tutorial education programs, as
well.

2. TECHNOLOGY AS A TEACHING TOOL - Like a tutor, technology is a teaching tool but can
never replace a teacher. This is like the handyman which is just there to be reached. Like any
other tool, it is being used to facilitate and lighten the work of the teacher. It will be good if the
teacher can also create or develop technology tools that are needed in the classroom.

3. TECHNOLOGY AS A LEARNING TOOL - While the teacher utilizes technology as a tool for
teaching, likewise it is an effective tool for learning. As a learning tool, it makes learning easy and
effective. It can produce learning outcomes that call for technology-assisted teaching. Even the
teachers who are teaching can utilize similar tools for learning. As a learning tool, it is a very
interesting that even the elderly uses these tools for learning in life.

There are numerous roles that technology plays in the job of teachers. As a tool, technology has
opened wider avenues in management of resources and management of learning. Likewise, it has
modernized the teaching-learning environment in schools. Here are some roles that technology can do for
teachers and teaching.

 Technology provides enormous support to the teacher as the facilitator.

 Technology has modernized the teaching-learning environment.
 Technology improves teaching-learning process and ways of teaching.
 Technology opens new fields in educational researches.
 Technology adds to the competence of teachers and inculcates scientific outlook.
 Technology supports teacher professional development.
Teachers must also be aware that technology plays a great role in terms of learning. Here are some
roles that technology can do for learners and learning.

 Technology support learners to learn how to learn on their own.

 Technology enhances learners’ communication skills through social interactions.
 Technology upgrades learners’ higher order thinking skills; critical thinking, problem solving and
creativity.
