This video depicts the importance of technology in today's classroom. The learners of today expect to be able to create, consume, remix and share information with one another. They text, blog and instant messsage one another on a daily basis. It’s our job to teach them to think, to create, to analyse, to evaluate and to apply. We need to use technology in an enaging way to help our students develop higher level thinking skills. Students need to be enabled to create digitally. Technology should be embraced as a central part of the education system. It is important to realise that technology will motivate our students. It will engage them and enhance their learning experience. It will also allow them the freedom to do well in today’s world.

Hi Siún
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this video. I have actually forwarded it to some of our adult ed co-ordinators who are finding that the cohort joining their classes are younger than they are used to be. I think this video really demonstrates the gap between the way education is delivered and where learners are at.
