why educational technology is important in teaching learning processes in 21st century?

2. Before starting with the
terminology, I want to share a video
with you…
I hope you will watch it carefully and
recall the way you have studied…
Hello friends, I am
VISION…

5. Only chalk, board and
a boring lecture…
No interaction,
No participation,
No enthusiasm,
No technology…

6. What kind of technology we
require in education???

7. Its
educational technology…
Lets understand it…

8. Educational technology, sometimes
termed EdTech or Learning
Technology, is the study and ethical
practice of facilitating learning and
improving performance by creating, using
and managing appropriate technological
processes and resources.

9. According to the Association for Educational
Communications and Technology (AECT)
Definitions and Terminology Committee,
EducationalTechnology includes other systems used in
the process of developing human capability. Educational
technology includes, but is not limited to, software,
hardware, as well as Internet applications, such as wikis
and blogs, and activities. But there is still debate on
what these terms mean.

10. So, according to me, educational
technology includes all the teaching
learning aid…
For e.g.: chalk, black board, charts, flash
cards, activities, play ground,
computer, radio, internet, interactive
board, open sources etc…

12. But
Are they sufficient in teaching learning process in
21st century??
And if yes, Are we using them properly???
Lets find answers for all the questions above…

13. Why am I
talking about
21st century???

14. We needs to understand why we are
stressing over 21st century
education.
For this, I wants to show you a video
about the kids we are going to
teach in a very near future…
Hello
friends, I am
rationality

16. So here, we are going to teach children of 21st
century…
Techno savvy
Techno lover
Techno freak…
This generation children are
considered as digital natives…

17. Why we need to use
technology in the
new era of
education???
Is it a new trend in teaching learning
process?
Wasn’t it required before???

18. Lets see one more video
Visionand then our many
questions will be answered…

20. Use of technology*
In education is an
ancient time
practice…
*Only the products are changed…

21. So, What does it mean???
Are we dependent on
technology to teach???

22. If teachers can provide only
• Content
• Fact
• Dates
• Formulae

23. •Research
•Theories
• Stories
• Information

24. Then our role in lives of
students will no more be
important…

25. Students can find Information
Anytime
Anywhere
On Anything

27. Virtually,
limitless information is available
to students under the sun…

28. WWW
means:

29. Teachers are not the onlysource of
information

30. So???
TEACHER

31. How should we teach students to
handle these resources???

32. Everyone
know
how to
use
search
engines…

33. Children learn to operate computers at a very young age

34. But ,Where are they learning
from???
•Friends?
•Strangers?
•Themselves???

35. But has anyone told them how to:
• Validate information?
•Synthesize information?
•Leverage information?
•Communicate information?
•Collaborate with information?
•Solve problem with
information?

36. And what about
•Responsibility???
•Reliability???
•Truthfulness?

37. Create your own cyber products for your
students or may be open to all and motivate
students to use your products online/offline…
What is the
solution???
Own cyber
products…

38. Time
&
Resources???

39. If we will focus on the objectives
mentioned before then who is going
to cover our syllabus???
And
How is it going to follow our
curriculum???

40. With all the information
available on internet,
should our curriculum be
focused on
facts and contents or
skills?

41. VS

42. What is the
requirement
of skills in
curriculum???
It’s the
need of
time…

44. In Hotels
Higher Education & Research
In Hospitals

45. In Government Jobs
like Railways
In Engineering
In Real
Estate
In Music

46. In Defense
In Social
Relationships
In Sports and Games

47. In Environment
In Astronomy
In Astrology

49. Blooms taxonomy

Requirement
of future

50. Create…

51. What does create mean
today???

52. CREATE WHAT???

54. We need to rethink
the tools we use and
the types of problems
we ask students to
solve…

60. How do we manage laptops ,
cell phones, mp3 player,
internet connections in
the class room?
The same way we manage
paper charts, books,
pencil box, flash cards etc
in the class room…

61. But, These gadgets
are not good
for behavioral
changes of
students….

62. The tools provides
temptations,
but they are not the
source of negative
behavior…

63. Any lesson you create, no matter what
tools are used,
Has to be…
•Relevant
•Engaging
•Challenging

64. Remember…
Students do not need to be
entertained…
They need to be engaged…
Agreed???

65. Our charge, as a facilitator,
is to provide
Meaningful Engagement

66. So from where does it start???

67. See what's out there…
Find some sites
www.mathszone.co.uk
www.mathgoodies.com
www.nrich.maths.org
www.counton.org
www.ipracticemaths.com

68. Try some software
Geogebra
Mathematica
Matlab
Math blaster
Compu-math:fraction
mathFacts in a flash
Mathtype
And a lot more…

69. Do some re-search
There are loads many topics in mathematics which are
untouched by the books and syllabus written in our
curriculum. Perhaps such topics are quite interesting
and creative.Try to find such topics and inculcate
them in our students…
Few examples are:
Sudoku
Calcuro
Number Patterns
Mathematical games
Tessellations…

70. What to do with
these all now???

71. Take first step small…
Have a start: Change can not occur
Without conflicts.Try something and
see what happen
Collaborate: Don’t do it alone… Plan together and
discuss what others have found useful
Relate: If you will find it useful for 21st century learner,
so you can motivate the learner to move further…

72. And remember the big picture
o No matter what content you teach
o No matter what skills you teach
o No matter what subject you teach
What matter is the question,
What does it mean to teaching in new
era???

73. TEACHING IN
NEW ERA
