Learning

Instructor/Classroom Management

When planning where does the consideration of technology fall?

I should be using technology in my lessons?

First Thing: Teachers should plan lessons around

technology.

Last Thing: Technology should be an afterthought.

Throughout: Technology plays a supportive role in

learning.

“When you go to the hardware store to buy a drill, you don’t actually want a drill, you want a hole, they don’t sell holes at the hardware store, but they do sell drills, which are the technology used to make holes. We must not lose sight that technology for the most part is a tool and it should be used in applications which address educational concerns.” (Fletcher, 1996, p. 87)
