If Educational Technology1 is about presenting new technology to the learners , Educational Technology 2 is more on the application of the different modern educational media presented from the previous subject. This is wherein learners can be more aware, appreciate more, and be fully equipped to use different technology tools ranging from traditional to modern educational media.
Educational Technology 2 as I see it, seems to encourage educators as well as learners to combine education and technology. Educators can use technology in providing knowledge and skills to learners.
Similar to the picture above, a teacher can also integrate technology in engaging students to have an IT classrooms ( internet usage etc.).Technology is not solely talking about computers, but all modern media available to us today and computer is one of these. For me, it is a task of a teacher to use traditional and modern educational media as an educational tools so to expand the learner's idea and outlook of life.This and all that modern technology is of great used but let us all be reminded that not all learning can be done in the internet or in the classroom as well ( vice-versa ).That is why new tools & strategies may come in , at some point traditional teaching is still in need for some aspect.
On the other hand, Educational Technology 2 also encourages educators , school administrators, etc to be computer literate and to appreciate Information Technology for instruction and school management as well.As evident nowadays, some universities have already come up with their official website which caters to the different need of the students, faculty, administrators, parents and to all for benefit of information and advertisement.
This and all I can say, that technology if used in a proper manner, can make life fruitful.
Happyday
