  • Students' prior knowledge is relevant to new learning.
  • Learning is active, cooperative, constructive, intentional, and authentic, ensuring it makes a meaningful impact.
  • Discovery Learning: Students actively explore and discover information rather than passively receiving it.
  • Students work to discover and understand information, developing new ideas and decisions.

  • Learners create personal models and explanations based on events and information.
  • Constructivism: Learners build their own understanding through experiences.
  • Learning helps individuals adapt to their world.
  • Learners take responsibility for their learning.
  • Teachers have an indirect role in modeling and facilitating learning.

Lesson 3: Computers as the third revolution in education

  • Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI): Provides individualized learning.
  • Computers function as communication and audio-visual media.
  • Communication Media: Computers facilitate communication through email, chat rooms, blogs, news sources, and more.
  • This development is shown through the introduction of technology.
  • Audio-Visual Media: Computers play a role in multimedia presentations like texts, sounds, graphics, pictures and PowerPoint presentations.

Lesson 4: Use of Technology in teaching-learning process

  • Traditional learning involves a teacher transferring knowledge like pouring water.
  • Traditional classrooms often use structured, seating arrangements with the teacher in a front-of-class position.
  • Modern classrooms (SCL classroom) that incorporate technology have shifted from a passive to active learning environment.
  • System Software: The operating system of a computer.
  • Application Software: Programs that perform specific tasks.
  • Examples include custom and commercial software in various formats (writing, calculating, graphing etc...).
  • GUI (Graphical User Interface): A visual interface used in computers, such as the windows interface.
  • Instructional Software: Software designed for instruction, interaction and multimedia.
  • Hypermedia packages combine interactive elements for learning.
  • Educational IT Applications: Include tutorial software and knowledge web pages.

Lesson 5: Microteaching

  • Microteaching involves practical skill practice (designing/delivering lessons).
  • Interactive Whiteboards: Used to display information visually.
  • Websites/Blogs: Learning resources are available through websites and blogs (e.g., WordPress).
  • Projectors are used to display information.
  • Technology is integrated into learning to create an active and engaging learning environment.
