The Importance of Technology within Education Elsa-Sofia Morote, Ed.D. Dowling College 2009

Remember the good old days?

The Way It Was Computation and Calculation scientific calculators, graphing calculators, laptops, PDAs tablet PCs, gigabytes and gigahertz, ubiquitous computing

The Way It Was Communication and Collaboration , voic , chatrooms, FAX, cell phones, text messaging, instant messaging, blogging, wireless connectivity

The Way It Was Collections and Connections Online Information: web catalogs, networked databases, Britannica Online, online newspapers, course websites, CMS and LMS, podcasting, wikis, YouTube Facebook

Given the amazing advances in technology and the dramatic change in the environment of our students, Can we afford to continue teaching the way we were taught? An important question:

Integrating Information Technology in Our Classrooms

Active Learning Objectives Courses should: 1.Be student-centered and encourage students to “learn to learn.” 2.Provide opportunities to think critically and to analyze and solve problems. 3.Assist students in developing skills in gathering and evaluating information. 4.Provide experience working cooperatively in teams and small groups. 5.Help students acquire versatile and effective communication skills. 6.Offer a variety of learning experiences. 7.Apply technology effectively where it will enhance learning.

Information Technology Objectives Students should: 1.engage in electronic collaboration. 2.use and create structured electronic documents. 3.do technology-enhanced presentations. 4.use appropriate electronic tools for research and evaluation. 5.use spreadsheets and databases to manage information. 6.use electronic tools for analyzing quantitative and qualitative data. 7.identify major legal, ethical, and security issues in information technology. 8.have a working knowledge of IT platforms. Adapted from Technology Across the Curriculum, George Mason U.

Overlap of Active-Learning Objectives and Instructional Technology Objectives

The modern world demands different skills Leitch Review: ‘Demographic, technological and global changes present enormous challenges and brilliant opportunities. Developed nations are relying more and more on their capacity to innovate and drive economic growth. The ability to do this depends upon the skills and knowledge of their people’

A new style of teaching? Students need to acquire the ability to communicate complex ideas, solve complex problems, identify order, find direction in an ambiguous and uncertain environment and to think and reason abstractly (Cohen 1987)
