Study Notes
- Technology provides access to a vast amount of knowledge and enables the discovery of new, more motivating learning methods, serving as a lifeline in education, especially during the pandemic.
- Technology facilitates the emergence of new ideas, testing, sharing, and dialogue among individuals, but it is not always as useful as it could be due to issues of access, utilization, and integration into teaching methods.
- While being connected can break down barriers, human interaction is essential for effective learning, and technology should serve as a tool rather than overshadowing human connection.
- The availability of impartial, high-quality, factual data is rare, and the freedom to create online can be a transformative factor, but only if reliability is ensured.
- Grand projects often overlook the questions of who will pay the price, including the cost to humanity, respect for privacy, and the environmental impact.
- The 2023 GEM report prompts reflection on who is in control when using technology in education, whether it meets our needs, and whether it excludes certain individuals.
- Investment in technology must be weighed against its benefits, and decisions should prioritize the needs of learners, ensuring they can use technology safely and critically.
- Not all technologies are synonymous with progress, and students must be able to discern what they need from technology and use it judiciously.
