ELT 2: Technology and Education

 Technology and Education System
Educational technology is "the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using, and managing appropriate technological processes and resources".

1) Why is it necessary to use Technology in Education?
 ➤Technology can be utilized to improve teaching and learning and help our students be successful. ... Through the use of learning management systems (LMS) students can access online resources to get assistance on demand beyond the physical reach of their teacher. Technology can also extend education in another way.

2) What is the difference between 'using' and 'integrating' technology?
➤Technology provides innovative learning opportunities for students and teachers alike, but it’s important to recognize that there is a difference between technology integration and simply using technology in the classroom. Integrating technology into classroom instruction means more than teaching basic computer skills and software applications in a separate computer class. Effective technology integration must happen across the curriculum in ways that research shows deepen and enhance the teaching and learning process.

3) How can we integrate technology?
➤Technology integration is the use of technology tools in general content areas in education in order to allow students to apply computer and technology skills to learning and problem-solving. Generally speaking, the curriculum drives the use of technology and not vice versa.


4) Can technology replace teacher?
➤Technology can never replace the sense of belonging a student has with his teachers. In fact, it is great teachers who make using technology so significant in students' education.

5) Write in brief on David Crystal's views on 'effect of new technologies on English language', 'biggest challenge for English language teachers in the times of internet', and 'texting is good for English language'.
➤Technologies influence the language in quite specific ways. New variety of language texting has been condemned as "textese", "slanguage" a 'digital viruse'. People think that the written language seen mobile phone is new but all the popular beliefs about texting are wrong. Texting has added a new dimension to language use but it's long-term impact is negligible. It is not a disaster.
6)Name one web-tool which can help in development of all four L-S-R-W skills.
➤I’m using the blogger app Which is a part of my study and unit activity it’s very helpful to me  be corrected my mistake and increasing my LSRW skills.
                                                    Thank you..!
