Today I would like talk about the topic “teaching with
technology”. First of all what is technology? Technology means according to the
Wikipedia “The tools and machines that helps to solve problems or do new
things; The techniques, skills and methods for solving a problem”. So it means that blackboard, pencil, power
point presentations, or high-tech tablets are technological tools. But in what
ways these tools linked to education? How these tools can be integrated to
education? Actually we can’t separate technology from education. Because in
every step of education we need help of the technology. With technology,
learning process can be enhanced and increased. For example let’s think about a
case, a language classroom, in which there is no technology tools, teacher is
just lecturing without any technological aids. It will be boring for students
to keep up with every word teacher is saying and learn everything lectured. But
if we integrate some technological tools to this lesson it would be more
entertaining and interesting for students. Thereby the learning process can be
achieved successfully. However the tool shouldn’t be used without any aim.
There should be reasonable purpose for using technological tools. In short, the
method and the tool should be chosen carefully according to the aim of the
course. I think using technology is very helpful for teaching process. If we
want to make information and learning process permanent we should get the help
of technology. Because as I mentioned previously in my “21st century
learning” post technology development has been increased so quickly that it is
a requirement for us to keeping up with it in every area of our lives. To sum
up, technology is a reality of our century and actually it is a very useful for
us. So we should take advantage of it.
