FS 3 – Learning Episode 1 (Reflection and Learning Porfolio)

My Reflections

1. As a millennial; the materials in the Learning Resources Center which caught my interest are the computer system, computer projector, LED Television and the internet connectivity of the school because the internet has vast and diversified information which you can get from it.  You can watch video tutorials in Facebook, and you can have a group chat in Facebook.

2. The materials which I am confident to use are laptop computer and LED Television which has HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interphase) port or the computer projector because it can easily manipulated and the attention of the students were focused on your presentation.  In Power point presentation, you can have the visual, audio and video materials all combined in a single setting. 

3. I would like to learn how to make or create blog; where I can post my anecdotal records, school projects, field study outputs and other paper works.  In blogging we can share our thoughts, feelings and we can share our knowledge within the paradigms of internet.

Integrating Technology in Facilitating Learning

Among of the main principles of teaching and learning technology subject integration as characterized by Susan J. Kovalik and Karen D. Olsen; that struck me most are the principles of integrative education bases its practices on the characteristics of the human learner and on the interdependent nature of reality. Instead of artificially dividing the world into "subjects" and using textbooks and seat work, integrative education immerses students in an enriched environment that reflects the complexities of life. This provides a holistic context for learning that leads to a greater ability to make and remember connections, and to solve problems (Susan Kovalik and Karen Olsen 1994). The principles emphasizing on the learners exertion and symbiotic methodology in the metrical world of technology and the acquired knowledge due to the sharing of facts and other information through the modern media of internet.

According to Daniel L. Kain, “integrative education had a little impact on the traditional structure of education;” this means that through the use of technology in the education and the integration of other teaching aids provide the catalyst of competent learning. The traditional structure approach is the derivative of teacher-centered approach of the curriculum in which the method of teaching is focused on the rote learning and memorization and the teacher is the center of the curriculum. Through the advent of technology the traditional system of education shift to the progressive type of curriculum in which the mastery approach stress the students activity by using the medium of technology in their learning.

I would apply the integration of technology in education in the following phases:

· Implementation of technology in the school curriculum

· Innovating technological trends of global curriculum

· Creating an E-learning community and environment

· Upgrading the teaching method through technology

· Advancement of learning acquisition of the learners

· Enhancement of the teachers’ teaching effectivity

· Revolutionizing the use of technology to increase educational output
