SANTO TOMAS COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY Feeder Road 4, Brgy. Tibal-og, Santo Tomas, Davao del Norte, Philippines EDUC 104 TECHNOLOGY FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING 1  Introduction Welcome to the fascinating world of "Technology for Teaching and Learning 1." In this module, we will look at innovative ways that technology can improve the teaching and learning experience in a college context. From digital tools to online resources, we'll look at how technology can transform education and empower both teachers and students. Throughout this module, we will cover current educational technology trends, practical classroom uses, and the advantages of incorporating technology into teaching techniques. By the end of this course, you will have a better grasp of how to use technology to create interesting and engaging educational experiences. Prepare to set off on an experience where technology meets education, influencing the future of teaching and learning for students. Let us explore, study, and embrace the limitless opportunities that technology has to offer in the field of education.  MODULE 1 TEACHING AND LEARNING WITH TECHNOLOGY: AN INTRODUCTION Lesson 1. ICT Competency Standards for Philippine Pre-service Teacher Education In this lesson, challenge yourself to: Identify the competency standards of ICT for teaching and learning in pre-service teacher education ACTIVITY What are competency standards? What are the ICT standards for teaching and learning in Philippine pre-service teacher education? Look at the two teachers in the pictures below. What does picture A show of the teacher? What about picture B? Picture A Picture B Teacher with Traditional Technology Teacher with Digital Technology  ANALYSIS Hello! In order to wrap up the activity, answer the questions below. Write your response on the space provided. Who is better equipped to handle the 21st century learners? Teacher A or Teacher B? Why? Which of the two teachers would you like to become when you graduate? Why? Give reasons for choosing Picture A: Give reasons for choosing Picture B. ABSTRACTION ICT Competency Standards (CHED-UNESCO) as provided in the 2017, Policy, Standards and Guidelines (PSG) for Pre- service Teacher Education The program outcomes for teacher education degrees clearly state that every future teacher: "demonstrate proficiency in the development and utilization of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) resources in promoting quality teaching- learning process.  To ensure that the program outcomes related to ICT shall be achieved, competencies were identified to be developed by every pre-service teacher (CHED UNESCO, Bangkok, 2009.) The ICT Competency Standards is made up of seven domains. Each domain has a set of competencies. The competencies are expressed in desired learning outcomes. Becoming proficient in the different competencies will enable you to handle learners of the 21 century in your future classroom. These domains and corresponding competencies are found in the Table below: Table 1: ICT Competency Standards for Pre-service Teachers  Likewise, the Department of Education issued Department of Education Order 42, s. 2017 mandating the use of the Philippine Professional Standard for Teachers (PPST) to start with the Beginning Teachers who are the fresh graduates from the teacher education program. The document includes: Show skills in the positive use of ICT to facilitate teaching and learning and Show skills in the selection, development and use of the variety of teaching learning resources including ICT to address learning goals. These competency standards to learn and master will assure the 21" century learners in your class of a more enjoyable, creative, innovative ways in teaching and learning. With the use of Table 1 above, can you identify the domain to which each given course learning outcome belong? Search from the CHED website any of the following: CMO 74, or CMO 75. ISTE National Educational Technology Standards For Teachers (NETS* T) An international organization for educational technology called International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), established standards for both teachers and students. These standards were also referred to in the development of the Philippine ICT Competency standards which include the following: Standard 1: Technology Operations and Concepts This means that teachers demonstrate a sound understanding of technology operations and concepts. Standard 2: Planning and Designing Learning Environment and Experiences This standard implies that teachers utilize the use of technology to plan and design effective learning environments and experiences.  Standard 3: Teaching, Learning and Curriculum Teachers should be mindful that in the implementation of curriculum plan, they have to include strategies for applying technology to maximize student learning. Standard 4: Assessment and Evaluation Teachers apply technology to facilitate a variety of effective assessment and evaluation strategies to collect and analyze data, interpret results, and communicate findings to improve instructional practice and maximize student learning. Standard 5: Productivity and Professional Practice Teachers use technology to engage in on-going professional development and lifelong learning in support of student learning, increase productivity and to build community of learners. Standard 6: Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues Teachers understand the social, ethical, legal and human issues surrounding the use of technology in support of student learning who come from diverse background, affirm diversity, promote safe and healthy use of technology resources and facilitate access to technology resources for all students. Likewise, ISTE also developed standards needed for students. These standards will be used as a guide by teachers to plan technology-based activities in which students achieve success in learning, communication and life skills. ISTE National Educational Technology Standards For Students (NETS* S) From how technology teachers facilitate learners, outcomes of student learning should indicate that the following standards have been complied with. Standard 1: Creativity and Innovation This standard will produce students who demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, develop innovative products and processes using technology from existing knowledge. Standard 2: Communication and Collaboration This standard requires students to use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others. This includes the use of variety of media and formats for global awareness with learners from other cultures. Standard 3: Research and Information Fluency Students are expected to apply digital tools to gather, evaluate and use information and plan strategies for inquiry. This standard expects the student to locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media. Standard 4: Critical Thinking, Problem-Solving and Decision Making This standard expects the students to use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools.  Standard 5: Digital Citizenship It is required by this standard that every technology student becomes a digital citizen who demonstrates ethical and legal behavior, exemplified by the practice of safe, legal and responsible use of information. Further, the student exhibits positive attitude towards the support of technology for collaboration, learning and productivity as a digital citizen. Standard 6: Technology Operations and Concepts Sound understanding of technology concepts, systems and operation is a standard that students should comply with. They too, are expected to further transfer current knowledge to learning of new technologies. As pre-service teacher education students now, you will have to master the knowledge and skills (Learning to Know) for the standards for students. However since you will become teachers in the future, you should harness the same knowledge and skills to become (Learning to Become) future teachers.
