LB#8

I learned that contrived experiences are substitutes of real things when it is not feasible to bring the real thing to the class and it include models, mock ups, specimens, objects, simulations and games. It is very important to have this in the class in order for students to learn from our lesson. And as future teacher someday, we will show some evidence from our students. Just for example, if we teach science we will give some projects to our students, then they will make models or drawings from their projects or if we teach them we will show unto them the things we are going to discuss. And if we dont have it in a real thing we can use some models or drawings.

DIRECT,  PURPOSEFUL EXPERIENCES AND BEYOND
I learned that direct experiences is learning by doing and makes us learn concepts and skills effectively. In this direct experiences, a person can really do it by in its own experiences,just for example if a person doesn't  know how to use a computer maybe it would be difficult for them but if you are willing to learn from it and spending hours in doing activities by our selves we can acquire the skill.And as future teacher someday we should learn from it and teach our student what we learn.And because of our experiences we can be a good teacher to them.

I learned that instructional material can be the best provided and it helps the teacher accomplish the intended learning objectives. As future teacher someday, we use instructional materials for our students. It is very important to have this in order to be understood by our students. This can also help the student gaining ideas from our lesson and help develop their critical  and creative thinking power. In using instructional materials we must be prepared and used proper materials that can fit in our lesson. And after giving the lesson we must give an evaluation to our student if they really understand.

LB#5

I learned that the cone of experience is a visual model, a pictorial device that presents bands of experiences arranged according to degree of abstraction and not degree of difficulty. As individual we had different experiences that acquires new concrete experiences. When we grow older the more abstract our concepts are likely to be and it can be attributed to physical maturation, more vivid experiences and sometimes greater motivation for learning.

LB#4

 The focus of systematic instructional planning is the student. It begins with the definition of instructional objectives that consider the students needs, interests and readiness. The teacher selects the appropriate teaching methods to be used and in turn based on the teaching method selected, the appropriate learning experiences and appropriate materials, equipment and facilities will also be selected. Systematic approach is a method or technique that can help students in conducting a lesson and using learning materials.

LB#3

In this lesson, I learned that there are different roles of educational technology in learning. It serves as learning tools that learners learn with and it engages learners in active, constructive, intentional, authentic and cooperative learning. Just for example a teacher must learn first before he/she will teach their students so that their student must also learn in using that technology.

I learned that using technology in our society is very important. It can be useful and I can communicate with my love ones whose far away from me. I can also use  this technology when I had a research, and if it is difficult to find in the library..I can easily search it to the computer...It made my life easier and I can gain more knowledge about the information that I had..there are also disadvantages of using this technology..but its up to us on how we use it. Were the one controls our life not the technology....

Educational Technology

For me, Educational technology is an innovative way to design, deliver,facilitate and manage instruction for learners of all ages. It empowers learners to be evolving digital citizens who advocate cultural understanding and global responsibility and it also inspire creativity and expertise in digital media literacies.

We can use this in our teaching, just for example in power point..we can easily discuss and view some important pictures in our presentation.
