My Course Reflection

                                                              My Course Reflection       This course has thought me a lot about technology and how it can be implemented into lessons. This course contains seven units, each unit contains different types of technology that can be used in your subject area. These technologies cater for different students and their learning styles. In unit one of Educational Technology, we explore what was technology integration. Technology integration can be great way to strengthen engagement by linking students to a global audience, turning them into creators of digital media, while helping them to practice collaboration skills.

My WebQuest

  Hello everyone! today we learn about WebQuests.  A web  WebQuest according to Edutopia is an inquiry-oriented activity in which students get all information from the web.

My Podcast

       A warm welcome to you all, I hope everyone is doing well today I speak about podcasts😊 A podcast is a digital audio file found on the internet that is available for downloading, It always comes in series just like a movie without pictures but rather something to listen to for many different reasons. In Educational Technology it is thought that a podcast can be incorporated into any lesson thought in the classroom. It is a very helpful tool in my opinion especially in my field of study which is History. Podcasts cater for students in a class who are auditory learners. A podcast can be made by both the teacher or a student it also can be done for any subject area. It is a smart way to catch up on notes, it can be created to be listened to while attempting other things throughout your busy day. A podcast can also be made from downloaded apps using a smart device. Here is a podcast I created using the Pod bean app to do so educating you about the diet o...

My Personal Philosophy about educational technology

My goal is to change that mind set in my students, with the use of technology I believe this will make my dream much more of a reality.         In todays generation students are more engaged and interested in learning when technology is involved. I have to admit technology does make class lessons especially history that carries a lot of content and reading much easier to understand. Technology also provides students with the opportunity to experience past events that took place many years ago.          Technology is also a great way to cater fo...
