Roles Of

technology for
teaching and
learning
Three domains
of
technology
According to Stosic (2015),
educational technology has three
domains:
(1) Technology as a tutor;
(2) Technology as a teaching tool; and
(3) Technology as a learning tool.
Technology as a tutor

Together with the teacher, technology can

support the teacher to teach another person
or technology when programmed by the
teacher can be a tutor on its own.
Technology as a teaching tool
Like a tutor, technology is a teaching tool, but can
never replace a teacher. This is like a handyman,
which is just there to be reached.

Like any other tool, it is being used to facilitate

and lighten the work of the teacher.
Technology as a learning tool
While the teacher utilizes technology as the tool for teaching,
likewise it is an effective tool for learning.

As a learning tool, it makes learning easy and effective.

It can produce learning outcomes that all for technology-
assisted teaching.
 Roles that
technology can
do for teachers
and teaching
1
Technology provides
enormous support to the
teacher as the facilitator of
learning.
2
Technology has
modernized the teaching-
learning environment.
3
Technology improves
teaching-learning process
and ways of teaching.
4
Technology opens new
fields in educational
researches.
5
Technology adds to the
competence of teachers and
inculcates scientific
outlook.
6
Technology supports
teacher professional
development.
 Roles that
technology can
do for learners
and learning
Three categories of knowledge
According to Egbert (2009)

 Declarative knowledge
 Structural knowledge
 Procedural knowledge
Three categories of knowledge
According to Egbert (2009)

 Declarative knowledge consists of the discrete

pieces of information that answers the questions
what, who, when, and where.
It is often learned through memorization of facts,
drills, and practice.
Three categories of knowledge
According to Egbert (2009)

 Structural knowledge consists of facts or pieces

of declarative knowledge put together to attain
some form of meaning.
It can be presented by concept maps, categorization
or classification.
Three categories of knowledge
According to Egbert (2009)

 Procedural knowledge is knowledge in action or

the knowledge of how to do something. It is based
on facts but learned through process of procedural
knowledge.
It is indicated by a performance task or graphical
representation of a concept.

Support learners to learn
how to learn on their own.

Technology enhances
learners’ communication
skills through social
interactions.
Social interaction
Social Interaction occurs in two ways where the
participants ask for clarification, argue, challenge
each other and work towards common
understanding.

Social interaction through communication occurs

through technology (directly between two person
via email, a cell phone or other communication
technology)
Social interaction
It can also occur around technology like student
discussing about a problem posed by a software
program or with support of technology like
teachers and students interacting about the
worksheet printed from a website.

Technology upgrades
learner’s higher-order-
thinking skills: critical
thinking, problem solving
and creativity
 Critical
thinking
is part of the cluster of higher
order thinking skills.
It refers to the ability to
interpret, explain, analyze,
evaluate, infer and self-
regulate in order to make a
good decisions.
 Creativity
is characterized as involving
the ability to think flexibly,
fluently, originally, and
elaborately.
It is not merely a set of
technical skills, but it also
involves feelings, beliefs,
knowledge and motivation.
Twenty-first century learning requires the development of higher-order-
thinking skills. Technology has a great role to play in the development
and enhancement of these skills.
 SEVEN CREATIVE STRATEGIES
(Osborn, 1663)
Adapt
Substitute -Look for other
-Find something ways this can be
else to replace to do used .
what it does.
.

Combine
-Blend two things Modify/Magnify/
that do not usually Minify
go together. -Make a change,
.
enlarge, decrease.
 SEVEN CREATIVE STRATEGIES
(Osborn, 1663)
Eliminate
Put to another use -Reduce, remove
-Find other uses
.

Reverse
-Turn upside-
All together, the strategies down, inside out,
will be labelled as front-side back.

 BENEFITS OF TECHNOLOGY
SUPPORTED COMMUNICATION

a) Enables any teacher to guide learners virtually

and making learning unlimited because
communication and social interaction go beyond a
school day or a school environment
 BENEFITS OF TECHNOLOGY
SUPPORTED COMMUNICATION
b.) Enhances students’ freedom to express and
exchange ideas freely without snooping eyes of the
teacher

c.) Enables learners to construct meaning from

joint experiences between two or more participants
in communication.
 BENEFITS OF TECHNOLOGY
SUPPORTED COMMUNICATION
d.) Help learners solve problems from multiple
sources since there is limitless sources of
information that the teacher can direct or refer to
the learners

e.) Teaches learners to communicate with

politeness, taking turns in sending information and
giving appropriate feedback.
 BENEFITS OF TECHNOLOGY
SUPPORTED COMMUNICATION
f.) Enhances collaboration by using communication
strategies with wider community and individuals in
a borderless learning environment

g.) Develops critical thinking, problem solving and

creativity throughout the communication
