Reflection 1

Reflection 1


Today began my journey in Technology. I ventured forward with great expectancy.  I am not very Technologically savy but I expect by the end of this course to become just that. The teacher Mrs. Marsh-Roberts asked the class to give her a definition for Educationally Technology. We all brainstormed and came up with our special definition. Educational Technology simply put is incorporating the computer in the classroom to make learning easier, more colourful and more interactive. There are many benefits to Technology use in the classroom.


  1.      Instructional effectiveness
  2.          Active learning
  3.          Critical thinking
  4.          Individualization
  5.          Motivation
  6.     .   Flexibility for students with special needs
  7.         Cooperative learning
  8.         Communication skills


I expect to use these benefits to make my classroom environment  more informative and exciting for student's learning. Let’s travel  together on the wings of Educational Technology.





Reflection 2

Learning Styles & Theories

hello everyone


This week in  Technology we looked at Learning Theories. There are four Learning Theories namely:
  1. Behaviourm: learning as response to external stimuli and the environment.u
  2. Cognitivism: learning with respect to how one thinks.
  3. Constructivism: persons construct his own meaning to knowledge.
  4. Social learning: learning as a result of collaboration.
We also looked at the nine multiple intelligences which are:


 
 
  1. linguistic
  2. logical
  3. spatial
  4. bodily
  5. existential
  6. interpersonal
  7. intrapersonal
  8. natural
  9. musical

From  this lesson I was able to understand more about my learning styles and intelligences. This was a very informative lesson.
