REFLEXION
LEARNING:
The first unit of our Educational
Technology class was an excellent introduction of the educational technology
environment and the importance of the new technologies in the teaching and
learning process nowadays. Also, we as students and future English teachers
realize the necessities of the new generation.
The unit 1 contents, new concepts which
helped us to acquire innovated knowledge. Now, we know the classification of
societies according to their educational methods which are the Society 1.0,
Society 2.0, and Society 3.0. In other words these three societies are our
past, present and future. Moreover, the term knowmad was introduced in this
unit who is someone innovative,
imaginative, creative, and able to work virtually with anyone, anywhere,
anytime. Furthermore, we worked on the Five Perspectives on
Teaching, the digital competences and the
TPI test.
We learnt
that we have to search for better ways of learning and teaching because this is
a time when everything seems predestined to be digitized so the tools for
teaching and learning have been moving from the stable methods of the twentieth
century to the new XXI century.
The big
question is how can we implement and diversify the use of educational
technologies?
LIKES:
We liked learning about the five teaching
perspectives (nurturing, developmental, social reform, transmission and
apprenticeship), because it is really useful to know what kind of teacher we
are going to be and if we can improve or change certain things when we become
teachers, and of course taking the TPI test was very accurate.
However
what we liked the most was exploring our creativity by creating presentation in
Pezi and Glogbster. Also we enjoyed working in teams because is easier to come
up with creative ideas when we are not alone. In short we can say that we loved
the classes and the new technological tools we start using.
DIFFICULTIES:
One
difficulty we had as a team was Creating the blog by
ourselves because we have never done one before and we only knew how to
use the basic features. We are still learning how
to do it; however, we are enjoying the process to get master
in it by watching tutorials.
