Technology in Education
In the past, learning and education simply
meant face-to-face lectures, reading books or printed handouts, taking notes
and completing assignments generally in the form of answering questions or
writing essays. In short; education, learning and teaching were considered
impossible without a teacher, books and chalkboards. Today, education and
training have taken on a whole new meaning. Computers are an essential part of
every classroom and teachers are using DVDs, CD-ROMs and videos to show
students how things work and operate. Students can interact with the subject
matters through the use of such web based tools and CD-ROMs. Moreover, each
student can progress at his/her own pace.

Technology in Education
|
Research has shown , that students learn
best when they are engaged. Through the use of technology, students can become
active participants
Using technology in education is very
important to enhance learning . so it’s easier for the students to acquire the knowledge by using the methods that are closer
to daily life .The methods that can be used are :
- Visual aids, whether PowerPoint or Flash movies or even
- The use of education in ways podcast
- Use Blogs
- Use the online search
- Create a group on BlackBerry,Viber and WhatsApp devices
- The use of digital messages
- Sound recordings
I personally agree with the idea of using technology in
education .When I was in the school the teachers taught us the lessons just by spoken explanation
without using technology and that was traditional way of teaching .students
need to be active by participating with the teacher . It will be better if the
ministry of education applies interactive whiteboard in all schools in Oman to
enhance learning. In the university the teachers use the technology in
education for example: they create PowerPoint presentation, send for the
students lectures notes by e-mail and some courses use interactive whiteboard
….Ext. In conclusion , I think education
system in the university is better than in schools in using technology .
