Introduction of technology to the learners is not enough and even teaching them the basic computer skills is also not enough.Integrating educational technology into the teaching -learning process is needed so to better appreciate the usage of technology.
Integration means to bring together or incorporate (parts) into a whole.To make up,combine, or complete to produce a whole or a larger unit, as parts do to combine to unite.(dictionary.com). Combining educational technology in the classroom instruction.
A student who is good in computer games or in typing in the Microsoft Word is not enough indication that a learner as already been introduce to Educational Technology.A student being engrossed with computer games is often discourage for it's bad effects.If we say integration of Educational Technology we should see it as a whole. There is already integration if we see the change in conduction of classes.The topics to be discuss is being suited with technology without even compromising the learning objective and the teaching- learning process.
To simplify it all, it is seeing technology in the right usage in the delivery of things to be learn.Letting technology in the mind and hand of a learner.
Happyday
