Educational Technology Concepts and Models

Educational Technology Concepts

• Educational technology encompasses various types of technology, including instructional technology, technology in education, and educational technology, with educational technology being the broadest category.
• Educational media refers to channels and avenues used for delivery of education.
• Audio-visual media aids are used within educational technology, including fixing and preservation.
• Five dimensions of educational technology include design, development, utilization, evaluation, and management.

Technology Integration Models

• TPACK (Technology Pedagogy Content Knowledge) model connects pedagogy, subject content, and technology.
• Levels of Technology Integration (TIM) model includes entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation as stages.
• Meaningful learning environments involve active, collaborative, constructive, authentic, and goal-directed elements.
• SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, Redefinition) model describes how technology can enhance learning.

Criteria for Selecting Educational Technology Tools

• Choosing technology tools requires considering relevance, objectivity, quality, appropriateness, organization, availability.

Principles for Selecting and Using Educational Technology

• Principles for selection and utilization include attractiveness, usefulness, meaningfulness, breadth, accuracy, simplicity, authenticity, purpose, interest, correctness, communication effectiveness, availability, presentation, portability, and cost-effectiveness.

Instructional Design Models

• Models like ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate) and ASSURE (Analyze learners, State objectives, Select methods and materials, Utilize materials, Require participation, Evaluate learning) are essential.
• Specific PPST (Prepare yourself, Prepare your student, Prepare materials, Follow up)

ICT Roles in Teaching and Learning

• ICT supports teachers, modernizes the learning environment, offers new research opportunities, enables professional development, and encourages independent learning.
• 7 domains of PPST.

Digital Literacy Skills

• Digital literacy encompasses media literacy, information literacy, ICT literacy, communication/collaboration, identity management, learning skills, and digital scholarship.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

• ICT encompasses a range of technologies from computers to networks with categories such as supercomputers, mainframes, minicomputers and microcomputers (desktop, laptop, notebook, palmtop).

Data Types and Hardware

• Data types handled by computers include analog, digital and hybrid.
• Hardware components (motherboard, CPU, RAM, ROM, USB) are crucial.
• Networks enable communications such as LANs, WANs, and the internet (connecting computers to exchange information).
• PIN, URL, email are key components of the internet.

Software and Software Functions

• Software programs facilitate tasks, manage functions (operating system), translate languages, and organize data with multiple types of software including system software, operating systems, language translators, word processing, spreadsheets, and databases.

Computer Roles

• Computers act as informative tools providing information, communication tools, and productivity tools (word processing, spreadsheets, databases).

The New Normal

• DepEd's Learning Continuity Plan (LCP) includes F2F, distance learning, blended learning, and homeschooling.

Online Terminologies

• Online and offline terms, synchronous learning, asynchronous learning, webinars, and G-Suite.

KMJS & PLDT functions

• Key functions for basic computer operations are grouped for ease of understanding as "select all", "bold", "copy", "fonts", "center", "find", "go to", "replace", "italics", "justify", "hyperlink", "left align", "indent", "documents", "open file", "print", "remove format", "right align", "save", "hanging indent", "underline", "paste", "close file", "cut", "redo", "undo". Also, "control + alt + delete".
