4. Today Technology is an integral part of academic system.
It is continuously improving in applications software,
system software & hardware.
It’s becoming more efficient & cost effective .
5. is the sum of techniques,
skills, methods, and
processes used in the
production of goods or
services.

Educational
technology:
G.O. Leith “Educational Technology is the
application of scientific knowledge and
learning and the conditions of learning
to improve the effectiveness and
efficiency of teaching and training.”
6. Technology integration
Technology integration is the use of technology resources , computers, digital cameras, CD-
ROMs, software applications, the Internet, etc. in daily class practices and provide students
the opportunity to build a deeper understanding of content.
https://en.wikipedia.org).
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.
7. In this 21st century, the term “technology” is an important issue in
many fields including academic program.
This is because technology has become the knowledge
transfer highway in most countries in academic program.
Technology integration nowadays has gone through
innovations and transformed our societies that has totally
changed the way people think, work and live . (Grabe, 2007)
Yes! Technology and its integration is important .
8. Effective technology integration is achieved when its
use supports curricular goals” (Technology Integration
is Key). (Edutopia,2013)
Why Integrate? (pair and share)
Technologies do not bring about revolutions, people do.”
)Denise Murray(
integration in education generally means technology-based
teaching and learning process that closely relates to the
utilization of learning technologies in academic institutions
(Jamieson-Procter et al., 2013).
9. The Difference Between Technology Use And Technology Integration
Technology Integration:
• Classroom use
• Teacher uses technology in
order to teach curriculum in a
more entertaining way
• Student use
• Specific/Centered on learning
• Purposeful/Educational
• Instructional
• Connection between subjects
• Critical thinking
• Collaboration
• Everyday/Everywhere use
• Everyone uses technology
• Broad/Disconnected from
subject matter
• Too procedural & isolated
• Entertainment
• Guided/Forced thinking
• Individual
Technology use :
10. Levels of Technology Integration
Sparse: Technology is rarely used or available. Students rarely use
technology to complete assignments or projects.
Basic: Technology is used or available occasionally/often in a lab
rather than the classroom.
Comfortable: Technology is used in the classroom on a fairly
regular basis.
Seamless: Students employ technology daily in the classroom using a
variety of tools to complete assignments and create projects that show
a deep understanding of content.

14. Five Benefits Of Technology Integration in academic Sphere
1. Technology makes
teaching easy!
2. Technology helps
you track students’
progress!
3. Educational
technology is good
to the
environment!
4. Thanks to
technology, students
enjoy learning!
5. Technology makes
distance learning
more accessible
than ever!
15. The five Steps of Effective Technology Integration
• Before using new technology enters the class,
determine whether a relative advantage exists.
Identify relative
advantage
• the next step is determining objectives and
appropriate assessments.
Determine objectives and
assessments
• when integrating technology into the class, take
into consideration students’ readiness levels along
with their physical and affective needs.
Design instructional
strategies
• Equally important to designing mindful
instructional strategies is ensuring that the
learning environment is ready for new technology
to be introduced.
Prepare the instructional
environment
• this is the only step occurring after a given
technology is introduced.
Analyze results and make
revisions
16. there are many ways technology can become an integral
part of the learning process in academic program.
Just a few of these ways are listed below , but new
technology tools and ideas emerge daily.
1- Online Learning and Blended learning Class
• While K-12 online learning gains traction around the
world and many teachers are also exploring blended
learning, a combination of both online and face-to-face
education.
K-12, a term used in education and educational technology in the United States,
Canada, and possibly other countries goal of K-12 program is to make the
students equipped with lot of skills that are in-demands in the country and in
abroad
17. 2- Game-Based Learning and Assessment:
There has been a lot of buzz about the
benefits of incorporating simulations and
game-based learning activities into classroom
instruction.
3- Learning with Mobile and Handheld
Devices: Once widely dismissed as
distractions, devices like cell phones, mp3
players, and tablet computers are now
being used as learning tools in forward-
thinking in academic institutions.
4- Instructional Tools like Interactive
Whiteboards and Student Response Systems, In
many schools and institutes , the days of green
chalkboards are over.
18. 5- Web-Based Projects, Explorations, and
Research
• One of the first, and most basic, ways that
teachers encouraged students to use technology
was with online research, virtual field trips, and
web quests.
6- Student-Created Media like Podcasts,
Videos, or Slideshows
• One of the central ideas of digital or media literacy
is that students should be come creators and
critics, not just consumers, of media.
7- Collaborative Online Tools like Wikis
or Google Docs
• Connecting with others online can be a powerful
experience, both for teachers and for students.
19. 8-Using Social Media
to Engage Students
students around the world
spend vast amounts of time
on social networks outside
of academic centers.
20. Four models of technology integration
TPACK
SAMR
TIM
TIP
21. • 1- Content Knowledge:
• Facts, concepts and theories
This is the subject matter we are
teaching like: Math, music, Art.etc..
2- Pedagogical Knowledge:
• expert knowledge of art and science of
teaching from learning theories to
instructional design. like direct
instruction, inquiry based teaching,
group discussion, debate.etc.
2- Technological knowledge:
• it looks at the digital tools ( google
Drive, ipad apps, Smart boards..etc )
• teachers can use to make content
accessible to students while supporting
the pedagogical strategy used in
instruction.
What's TPACK
itscombinationof:
What teacher
know?
How he tech?
How technology is
used?
22. Now lets look at the overlaps :
TP knowledge: helps us to understand how are we making content
more accessible.
TC knowledge : allows us to identify the affordances of pairing
appropriate technology to the content
PC knowledge : allows us to identify the affordances of pairing the
appropriate pedagogies with the content.

CreatorofSAMRmodel
Substitution: A Word Processor replaces a
Pen/Pencil in a Writing Assignment.
Augmentation: A Word Processor and text-
to-speech function are used to improve the
writing process.
Modification: The document created using
the Word Processor and text-to-speech
function is shared on a blog where feedback
can be received to help improve the quality
of writing.
Redefinition: Instead of a written
assignment, students convey analytic thought
using multimedia tools.
Assignment: A hand
written paper.
25. For creating a tech integration vision,
you should take certain points into
consideration, they are listed below:
The goal of technology integration: The aim should be to use technology to provide a
variety of new ways to learn which foster. 21st century skills like independent
thinking, problem solving, communication, collaboration and more.
Elements required for integrating technology: The common elements for tech
integration are teachers, students, content and technology.
Technology should help students learn new things in new ways and prepare them for
the future
26. Other Ways of Integrating Technology into the Class and enabling learning
1. Making Use of the Gamify Learning Experience: Gaming has become a huge
part of students’ lives. This is a great way to integrate technology into the learning
experience by making a game of it.
2. Building Lesson Plans Using Differentiated Instruction and Tech:
Tailoring your lesson plans to your students is increasing in popularity. For instance, by
grouping students in a class based on their abilities can improve the effectiveness of
the teaching message.
3. Develop a Class Website: There are a lot of fun ways to integrate
technology into the class, but none as exciting for students as developing a class
website.
4. Create a Classroom Blog: This is an excellent way to inspire students and
keep them engaged in classroom activities. Blogs are also essential in teaching
reading, writing, listening, using tech, and so much more.
5. Using Social Media as a Teaching Tool: For instance, you can pull a video from
YouTube. Or you can use travel images of social media influencers as a discussion piece in
class.
27. Successful technology integration is achieved when the use
of technology is:
Routine and
transparent.
Accessible and
readily available
for the task at
hand.
Supporting the curricular
goals, and helping
the students and teachers
to effectively reach their
goals.

39. CONCLUSIONS
As technology integration into the learning and teaching process and the whole system of
academic program is a rather complicated process, new conceptions, strategies, plans and
models have to be developed by the MOHE and school administration which make full use of
the potential of new technologies.
An attempt to integrate technologies will be fruitful and efficient process only if it is preceded
by proper planning provided by the MOHE and proper provision by resources for institutes /
schools.
The whole learning/teaching and change process of integrating the technology has to be
flexible, and its efficiency depends on the motivation and preparation of the whole academic
staff to implement innovations.
There are four models of for integrating technology in class (TPACK,SMAR,TIP&TIM).
By removing and overcoming to barrier's in academic program the teachers are able to
integrate technology and enhance the quality of teaching and learning process.
