WHAT IS TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION?
• Technology is a tool for learning• Technology should be integrated across the curriculum• Computers belong in classrooms rather than laboratories• Classrooms should be connected to the Web• Teacher training should focus on curriculum integration as well as on skills
WHAT IS TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION?
VS
NEW LEARNING ENVIRONMENT(Student- Centered)
TRADITIONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT(Teacher – Centered)
THE TRADITIONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IS TEACHER-CENTERED:

TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM It may be observed that
classrooms are usually arranged with neat columns and rows of student chairs or desks, while the teacher stands in front of the classroom or sits behind his table.
This situation is necessitated by the need to maintain classroom discipline, also allows the teacher to control classroom activities through lecture presentation and teacher-led discussions.
• John Dewey has described traditional learning as a process in which the teacher pours information to student learners, much like pouring water from a jug into cups. This is based on the long accepted belief that the teacher must perform his role of teaching so that learning can occur. This learning approach is generally known as direct instruction, and it has worked well for obtaining many kinds of learning outcomes.
The problem with it is that the approach in learning, however, is the fact that the world’s societies have began to change. It may not be felt strongly to countries in which on countries who depends mostly their economy to factory workers.
Traditional and direct instruction is very useful in these countries.
THE NEW LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IS LEARNER-CENTERED:

• The idea of student-centered learning is not a recent idea.
In fact, as early as the 20th century, educational educators such as John Dewey argued for highly active and individualized pedagogical methods which place the student at the center of the teaching-learning process.
NOWADAYS, SCHOOL CURRICULUM EMPHASIZES THE 'STUDENT-CENTERED CLASSROOM' AND IS CHARACTERIZED BY STUDENT INDIVIDUALLY OR IN GROUPS:
•PERFORMING COMPUTER WORD PROCESSING FOR TEXT OR GRAPH PRESENTATIONS•PREPARING POWER-POINT PRESENTATION•SEARCHING FOR INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET•BRAINSTORMING ON IDEAS, PROBLEMS AND PROJECT PLANS•AS NEEDED, THE TEACHER FACILITATING INSTRUCTION, ALSO GIVING INDIVIDUALIZED INSTRUCTION TO SERVE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS.
•NOTICEABLY, HOWEVER, AFTER SPENDING SO MANY MINUTES IN LESSON PRESENTATION AND CLASS MANAGEMENT, STUDENTS CAN GET RESTLESS AND FIDGETY. OFTEN ENOUGH, THE TEACHER HAS TO ALSO MANAGE MISBEHAVIOUR IN CLASS AS STUDENTS START TO TALK AMONG THEMSELVES OR SIMPLY STARE AWAY IN LACK OF ATTENTION
IN CONTRAST, INDUSTRIALIZED SOCIETIES WE FIND KNOWLEDGE-BASED ECONOMIES IN WHICH WORKERS DEPEND ON INFORMATION THAT CAN BE ACCESSED THROUGH INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES (ICTS).
DESIRING TO GAIN
EFFECTIVENESS, EFFICIENCY AND
ECONOMY IN ADMINISTRATION, SCHOOLS IN THESE
DEVELOPED ECONOMIES HAVE
ALSO ADOPTED THE SUPPORT OF ICTS. THEIR STUDENTS
HAVE NOW BECOME ACTIVE NOT
PASSIVE LEARNERS, DEMONSTRATING
INDEPENDENCE AND SELF-AWARENESS IN THE LEARNING
PROCESS.
THANKS FOR BEARING WITH US!
