Educational Technology in the 21st century
Teachers in this new environment will become less as instructors and
more as orchestrators of information, giving the students the
ability to turn knowledge into wisdom.
Teachers and administrators need to cultivate and maintain the student’s
interest in the material by showing how this knowledge applies in the real world.
The Traditional Classroom

TRADITIONAL
Delivery vehicles for instructional lessonsTechnology serves as a teacher.
CONSTRUCTIVIST
Partners in the learning processTechnology is a learning tool to learn with, not from.
From a constructivist perspective, the following are
the roles of technology in learning:
(Jonassen, et al 1990)
Technology can play a traditional role, i.e. as delivery vehicles for instructional lessons or in a constructivist way as
partners in the learning process.
Whether used from the traditional or constructivist point of view, when used
effectively, it “increases students’ learning, understanding, and achievement but also
augments, motivation to learn, encourages collaborative learning and supports the
development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills”
(Shacter and Fagnano, 1999)
It allows the teacher to utilize many resources that can make teaching more efficient and
effective
It also provide assistance in creation, administration and implementation of the
following:
Visual Aids Recording and Computing Grades
Communication Opportunity for Distance Education
VisualsComputer software help better presentation of information.
Recording and Computing GradesComputer hard drives and storage devices are an excellent
way to store data.
Information AccessThere many websites that are useful for education. The
internet is vast source of knowledge that the teacher and students could utilize.
Computers enable access to the Internet which has information on literally everything.
Technology as intellectual partner
CommunicationTechnology as a social medium to support learning by conversing
Technology as tools to support knowledge construction
Technology as information vehicles for exploring knowledge to support learning-
by-constructing:
Technology as context to support learning by doing
Proper implementation of technology in the classroom gives students more “control of
their own learning and tends to move classrooms from teacher-dominated
environments to ones that are more learner-centered
