Reflection in Preliminary Lessons :)



One of the major advantages in Educational Technology is that students are highly motivated in terms of learning, one concrete example is the Project-Based students are responsible for their learning which help them actively engaged and earn participation in class room. This method is one of those effective styles in encouraging students and also it gives them inspiration in attending class.
  
      ICT I can share some advantages of these proposal in my own perception: Communication channels are increased because of electronic mails and group discussions with the use of social networking, Development of higher level learning styles, Flexibility of "anytime, anywhere" access and also the teacher will have easier planning and preparations of lessons and designing materials. 
          
      Because of ICT transmission of basic skills in education will be easily integrated since computers are made for user's convenient, and students nowadays are highly active when it comes to technology. This opportunity can lead us to be in globally competition since most of countries around the word is implementing this ICT, which can reinforce teachers to share the lessons and for the students to grasp it in a enjoyable and adventurous way.

            I also want to share the 4 methods in students learning, all of them relies on past lessons and experiences except the discovery learning by that, teachers can choose and apply series of methods to share his/her knowledge and ideas.

ICT in South Korea

Technology is a perception that deals with the usage and knowledge of tools and crafts, it is needed nowadays since most of the people are engaged and oriented on this new era.


My aunt is one of the Korean tutors in South Korea, she said that the government implemented a good proposal regarding the usage of computers in education, according to her the the government recognizes the
importance of equal access to information sharing in a knowledge-based society, or shall I say they want to be aware and globally competitive. They provided computers and financial implement support to students from poor families, enabling them to learn how to use computers and the Internet. She also said that children from low-income families were given opportunities for computer lessons and practice. In addition, outstanding students
received free PCs and financial rewards so that Korean students will be motivated to know more about computers.

Realizations in EDTECH 2 for the first week of discussion :)

My brain is still in the page of Project-Based Multimedia Learning, I learned many things from this topic such as, teachers should monitor and guide students not just simply lectures as a means of imparting the lessons, also students will have the chance to enhance their creativity and technical knowledge since this topic will be more effective if Computers are present.

I also learned that in implementing computer subjects in curriculum, you need to set accurate and reliable goals and objectives.
