REFLECTION WRITING ABOUT THE REPORTS

First, Dale's Cone of Experience is significant because it illustrates how different learning strategies can be successful. Knowing it enables teachers to create interesting and successful lesson plans. Teachers can optimize student retention and improve learning outcomes by emphasizing active involvement and hands-on activities. Second, TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) is essential for educators. It gives educators the ability to apply technology to improve learning and teaching while keeping a thorough grasp of the material and teaching strategies. Teachers are empowered by TPACK to design meaningful and captivating learning environments.  On the other hand, the integration of SAMR (Substitute, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition) and Bloom's Digital Taxonomy enhances instructional techniques. This collaboration enables educators to create lessons that not only efficiently use technology but also help students develop their creativity, critical thi...

My insights or take aways about the topics reported.

My insights about the report are, online distance learning is vital for access to education anytime and anywhere. It promotes inclusivity, reaching diverse learners worldwide. On the other hand, blended learning can be applied when online distance learning sometimes is not applicable. Blended learning, an approach that combines traditional classroom instruction with online resources, offers different insights into modern education. Its flexibility allows learners to access material at their own pace while taking advantage of face-to-face interaction with teachers . There are p ositive effects include increased connections, personalized learning experiences, and the development of technical skills essential for the digital age. However, challenges arise, such as the digital divide among students, potential distractions from online platforms, and the need for effective time management. Despite these shortcomings,...

How I'm going to use technology when I will become a teacher and how technology can be used to improve learning among students?

In this digital age, the world has integrated technology as part of the teaching-learning situation. Teachers every now and then use technology like online learning platforms, online assessments, and automated grading systems. Consequently, technology facilitates and lightens the work for teachers. Here in the Philippines, some of the communities were not reachable by the internet because the locals lived in the upland areas. If I become a teacher and I am assigned to remote areas of the country, I or we will use technology together with the other teachers and parents, such as Wi-Fi, so that we have internet access and not just focus on one material. On the other hand, I will use technology in teaching situations by creating presentations like PowerPoint, Excel Word, and other multimedia projects. This enhances the creativity and communication of the students. On the student side, technology helps the students improve their learning by using technology as a teaching tool. They can sear...

Why i wanted to become a Teacher?

Image
The desire to become a doctor, then an engineer, and finally a  TEACHER.  In elementary school, I couldn't decide what I wanted to be in the future or what profession I wanted. In secondary level, specifically second year, there was a teacher who persuaded me to become a teacher. We had the same personalities. She was very entertaining and witty during class discussions. After graduating from high school, We didn't have enough money for tuition, so I applied for a scholarship. I enrolled in college, but I was disappointed because the education program was already full. I enrolled in the BS Environmental Science and Technology program. During my college years, we had these community immersions in the uplands. I noticed that children were not enrolled in school. No writing and no reading. That immersion made me realize that not every child had the opportunity to attend school. I also wanted to be a teacher for this reason. I want to make difference;  I want to tea...

How does the role of technology change the teaching learning environment? How does it influence me as a Student and as a Future Teacher?

The classroom can become an interactive learning environment with the help of technology. The students are working on worthwhile projects like problem-based learning assignments, searching the Internet for information for reports, or creating presentations for class. Software and hardware become tools used by the student to create a product to be presented to teachers and fellow students so that they may review, learn, or critique in a collaborative manner (Dawson, Cavanaugh & Ritzhaupt, 2008) . The student is able to help the teacher on technology tips that the student has had time to master while the teacher works on directing the instruction as a whole (Mouza, 2008) . Hence, the technology benefits in increases of collaboration among teachers and students .   As a student, technology influences me in that sometimes I no longer need to rely on the teacher to find new sources of information, and I can use email to save my homework and projects in a location that is always acce...
