It is a critical issue in our education system nowadays when talking about technology.
When I google the importance of technology to be used in teaching and learning in classroom,I found this article.
Here I only attach some important points to remind me what should I do in dealing with technology..
Teachers
Representatives of appropriate organizations also have created technology standards for teachers. The following are teacher standards modified from the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers. They are especially relevant for teachers considering the following technology action options:
- Teachers understand and support the importance of students learning to use educational technology as an important component of their preparation for further education, work, and life in general.
- Teachers demonstrate their support of technology use by developing their own skills, knowledge, and strategies necessary to model effective uses of technology.
- Teachers learn and use effective ways to integrate technology into their curriculum and use technology in ways that enhance instructional opportunities and successes for all students.
- Teachers learn uses of technology that provide assessment feedback to parents, students, and the teacher about how well the student is learning, and then use that data to improve learning productivity.
- Teachers understand and instill into their students the social ethical, legal and human issues surrounding the uses of technology
Student standards have been developed by the International Society for Technology (ISTE), which recommends students' use of technology should reflect the following skills and operations:
- Basic operations and concepts
- Students demonstrate a sound understanding of the nature and operation of technology systems.
- Students are proficient in the use of technology.
- Social, ethical, and human issues
- Students understand the ethical, cultural, and societal issues related to technology.
- Students practice responsible use of technology systems, information, and software.
- Students develop positive attitudes toward technology uses that support lifelong learning, collaboration, personal pursuits, and productivity.
- Technology productivity tools
- Students use technology tools to enhance learning, increase productivity, and promote creativity.
- Students use productivity tools to collaborate in constructing technology-enhanced models, prepare publications, and produce other creative works.
- Technology communications tools
- Students use telecommunications to collaborate, publish, and interact with peers, experts, and other audiences.
- Students use a variety of media and formats to communicate information and ideas effectively to multiple audiences.
- Technology research tools
- Students use technology to locate, evaluate, and collect information from a variety of sources.
- Students use technology tools to process data and report results.
- Students evaluate and select new information resources and technological innovations based on the appropriateness for specific tasks.
- Technology problem-solving and decision-making tools
- Students use technology resources for solving problems and making informed decisions.
- Students employ technology in the development of strategies for solving problems in the real world.
The following are recommendations of what skills, knowledge, and dispositions parents are expected to develop in terms of technology use :
- Parents should understand the importance, benefits, and issues associated with informational uses of technology in schools.
- Parents share with their children the importance and concerns they have about the uses of technology.
- Parents are involved in school activities, including helping students become more successful users of technology.
- Parents advocate for better educational opportunities for their children, including better access and use of technology.
- Parents model and provide guidance to quality uses of technology outside of school, including adhering to copyright laws and understanding the benefits and challenges of the vast and diverse materials available on the Internet.
Teaching is changing,
it becoming a more difficult job because of increasingly expectations.
Therefore,we must expect the students needs as we expect them to be with us along the learning process.it becoming a more difficult job because of increasingly expectations.
