Abstraction

The following terms and concepts are related to technology that you need to digest.

1. Technology refers to methods, processes, and devices used for practical purposes.
It includes instruments from pencil and paper to modern electronic gadgets and
tools for the practical task.

2. Information and Communication Technology and Literacy or ICT Literacy

is the use of digital technology, communication tools and networks to access,
manage, integrate, evaluate, create and communicate information (Guro 21,
2011).

3. Educational Technology refers to the utilization of technology in teaching and

learning, which includes both the non-digital (flip charts, pictures, models, realia,
etc.). And digital (electronic tools: hardware, software, and connections, etc.).\

4. Digital Literacy refers to the ability to discover, assess, utilize, share, and
generate content with the use of information technologies and the internet
(Cornell University).

P a g e 5 | 189
5. Digital Learning is an instructional practice that utilizes technology to reinforce
students’ learning experience. It covers the use of a broad spectrum of processes
that comprises blended or virtual learning. It can come as online or off-line, which
utilizes digital technology.

6. Online Digital Tools and Apps use an Internet connection to access the
information needed, like Skype. It is a telecommunication application software
product that focuses on providing video chat and video calls between computers,
tablets, mobile devices via the Internet and to regular telephones.

7. Off-line Digital Tools and Apps can still be used even if there is no internet
access. Among these are Canary Learning, Pocket, Evertone, iBooks, KA LITE
(Gupta, Prinyaka, 2017).

8. Instructional Technology refers to the theory and practice of design,

development, utilization, management, and evaluation of the processes and
resources for learning (Association for Educational Communications and
Technology, Seels, B.B. &Richey, P.C. 1994).

9. Software refers to program control instructions and accompanying documentation

stored on disks or tapes when not being used in the computer. By extension, the
term refers to audiovisual materials (Smaldino, 2005).

10. Multimedia is a sequential or simultaneous use of a variety of media formats in a

given presentation or self-study program (Smaldino, 2005).

11. Internet is a massive network of networks, a networking infrastructure. It

connects millions of computers globally, forming a network in which any
computer can communicate with any other computer as long as they are
connected to the internet. It is generally defined as a global network connecting
millions of computers (http://www.webopedia.com).

12. World Wide Web (www) is also called a Web, which is a graphical environment
on computer networks that allows you to access, view, and maintain
documentation that can include text, data, sound, and videos (Smaldino, 2005). It
is a way of accessing information over the medium of the internet. It is an
information-sharing model that is built on top of the Internet.

13. Web Access is the ability of the learner to access the Internet at any point during
the lesson to take advantage of the array of available educational resources.

14. Webquest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all information

that learners work with comes from the web. These can be created using various
programs, including simple word processing documents that include links to
websites.

P a g e 6 | 189
15. Productivity Tools refers to any type of software associated with computers and
related technologies that can be used as tools for personal, professional, or
classroom productivity.

Examples: Microsoft Office, Apple Works – word processing, grade

and record-keeping, web page production, presentation) (KFIT-Unesco
2016).

16. Technology Tool is an instrument used for doing work. It can be anything that
helps you accomplish your goal with the use of technology. These technology
tools can be classified as:

a. Data/Calculation Tools. Examples: spreadsheets, Excels, Sketchpads,

probability constructor
b. Design Tools. These are used to make models and design, creating, and
building. Included here are Family Tree Maker, GollyGee, and Crazy
Machines, among others.
c. Discussion Tools. Four different approaches utilize discussion and
interaction on the Internet. These are threaded discussion forum, Blogging,
Live chat, and Video Teleconferencing, Netiquette, and Safety on the Net.
d. Email Tools. Emails are great communication tools for sending messages,
photographs, videos, and other files. It allows you to reach out to others
around the world. Examples are google mail, Ymail, Yahoo mail, and many
more.
e. Handheld Devices. Handheld devices have become popular among learners.
These include Personal Digital Assistants, global positioning system, (GPS)
and Geographic Information system (GIS) in the classroom, Portable
electronic keyboards, Digital cameras, Mobile phones, Palm, Handheld

17. Webquest is a teacher structured research experience for the students that are
primarily based on the use of the World Wide Web and typically takes one or
more instructional periods (Bender & Waller, 2011).

18. Blog is an online journal where posted information from both teachers and
students is arranged. There are three kinds of blogs: blogs used for
communication, blogs used for instruction, and blogs used for both (Ferriter &
Garry, 2010).

19. Wiki, an editable website usually with limited access, allows students to
collaboratively create and post written work or digital files, such as digital photos
or videos. Wikipedia is one of the most widely recognized of all the wikis
(Watters, 2011).

P a g e 7 | 189
 20. Flipped classroom utilizes a reverse instructional delivery, where the teacher is
required to use the web resources as homework or out of class activity as initial
instruction of the lesson, which will be discussed during class time.

21. Podcast is a video or audio multi-media clip about a single topic typically in the
format of the radio talk show. The two essential functions of a podcast are to
retrieve information to disseminate information (Eash, 2006).

22. Google Apps is a cloud-based teaching tool which is stored in the Google server
and is available for students both at home and in school. It includes the Gmail, a
free-mail for all; Google calendar – a tool used for organizational purposes;
Google sites that provide options for developing blogs and wikis; and Google
docs are used for sophisticated word processing and editing for the document.

23. Vlog is a video blog where each entry is posted as a video instead of the text.

24. Facebook is a popular social networking site used by students and adults
worldwide to present information on themselves and the world.

25. VOIP (voice over internet protocol) is a category of hardware and software that
enables people to use the Internet as a transmission medium for telephone calls by
sending voice data in packets using IP rather than traditional circuit transmission.

ICT Policies and Safety Issues in Teaching and

Learning
Module Overview

“There can be infinite uses of the computer and new-age technology,

but if teachers themselves are not able to bring it into the
classroom and make it work, then it fails.”

-Nancy Kassebaum-

 ICT National or International Policies That Are Applicable to Teaching

and Learning
 Safety Issues in ICT
 Uses of ICT Policies in the Teaching and Learning Environment

Welcome to your journey for an exciting fact about Module 3!

Restrictions of distance have been broken by technology at present times. Now

when we live in a technology-based society, ICT learning is one of the best methods of
teaching students through virtual classrooms. The relationship between ICT and
Education has been one of rapid change from technology to learning. Schools
increasingly determine new technologies and models for teacher professional
development in enhancing teaching and learning (Ndongfack, 2010). The importance of
national policies and programs for the realization of ICTs can be an essential tool in
education. According to Schmidt, et al., (2009), the way teachers use ICT tools for
effective teaching can be an important tool for information communication technology
development for learning and teaching.

At the completion of this module, you should be able to:

P a g e 14 | 189
  enumerate the national ICT policies affecting classroom practices
 describe the implementation of ICT policies in teaching-learning
 identify ICT policies that are incorporated to the design and implementation of
teaching-learning activities
Are you ready? Then start the lessons now!

ICT National or International Policies That are

Applicable to Teaching and Learning

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:

 Understand ICT in Education
 Define basic concepts in understanding ICT in Education
 Enumerate the national ICT policies affecting classroom practices

Time Frame 2 days

Introduction

Information and Communications Technology (ICT) can impact student learning

when teachers are digitally literate and understand how to integrate it into the curriculum.
When you want every student to enumerate national ICT policies, each time you teach,
understanding the existing and planned national policies related to ICT, may help you
achieve your goal. You will find the answers to this question in this lesson.

Activity

1. Write down the policies and suggest what to do to implement the ICT in
Education policy first at the national level (all schools) and then how to
implement the policy in our classroom.

 Analysis

ICTs are not only an instructional means to provide prerequisite learning activities;
they offer an exploratory space where the learner is in charge. Write down a list of the
international and national ICTs as a learning tool you think can improve quality in
education.

Abstraction

The international policymakers join forces to successfully implement ICT in

educational practice to address the individual needs of students, the implications
of technology for student assessment, and teacher learning to successfully implement
technology (Voogt, 2013). A National ICT Policy is a policy put into place so that the
government and stakeholders can have access to information that is committed to
bringing digital technology to all individuals and communities.

The provision of ICT to academic staff and students is critical to recommend them
to more effective learning environments. By overcoming the needs and reinforcing the
functional aspects, it may help decision-makers to employ academic staff on an
investigation of the status of the developments of ICT in improving the teaching and
learning environment in educational institutions. (Alzahrani, 2017).

The ability of policymakers to innovate on related policy issues outperform

technological innovations because it changes and evolves. Different institutions in
different countries formulated and proposed policies in various forms. Lack of rigorous
and significant evidence complicates the attempts to outline impactful ICT/education
policies.

The World Bank’s Systems Assessment for Better Education Results (SABER)
initiative, as part of their work, attempts to document national educational technology
policies around the world and their evolution over time. Policymakers try to benchmark
their policies on ICT use in education against international norms, so a related SABER-
ICT policy framework has been developed. Likewise, those of comparator countries
around the world, identify key themes and characteristics, draw on an analysis of their
policy documents.

There are eight policy themes around the world that are commonly identified in
educational technology policies; (1) vision and planning; (2) ICT infrastructure; (3)
teachers; (4) skills and competencies; (5) learning resources; (6) EMIS; (7) monitoring
and evaluation; and (8) equity, inclusion, and safety. The framework only considers
policy intent but not the extent to which policies are realized in practice, nor the impact

P a g e 16 | 189
of such policies. The policymakers are challenged to offer useful related policy guidance
for rapid developments and innovations in the technology sector (Trucano, 2016).

SABER-ICT policy framework may find useful by policymakers as a means to help

their country benchmark the current state of related policy development. It can look
forward to potential future policy directions and gain inspiration from other countries.

There are two official documents wherein Policy on the use of ICTs in the
Philippine basic education system is articulated. The Medium-Term Development Plan
of the Philippines (MTPDP) 2004-2010. The MTPDP states:

“ICT will be harnessed as a powerful enabler of capacity development. It will,

therefore, be targeted directly towards specific development goals like ensuring basic
education for all and lifelong learning, among others” (National Economic Development
Authority, 2004a, p. 2)

and the 2002 Basic Education Curriculum (BEC), that stipulates the following goal of
Philippine primary education:
“We must educate our Filipino learners to filter information critically, seek credible
sources of knowledge, and use data and facts creatively so that they can survive,
overcome poverty, raise their personal and national esteem, and realize a gracious life in
our risky new world.” (p. i)

The Philippine government, especially the Department of Education and

Department of Science and Technology, has forwarded ICT educations through policies
and projects. The Restructured Basic Education Curriculum launched in 2002 aimed to
implement an interactive curriculum and to integrate technology in instruction and
education, with computer literacy much emphasis. The Act of 1998 (R.A. 8484) was
passed to generate the participation of companies and to engage the private sector. There
are programs with DepEd through streamline data collection to improve ICT education.
To help schools to participate in ICT-related programs, the DepEd Computerization
Program (DCP) was implemented.

According to Arinto (2006), policy statements on ICT integration in Philippine

primary education reflect a human development perspective. However, critical ICTs for
schools’ programs tend to be informed by a human capital approach. The human
development perspective joined the mainstream of education and development in the
1990s, and it now reinforces the international consensus on Education for All and the
Millennium Development Goals, However, many educational reform efforts. It continues
to influence the human capital perspective (Avalos, 2003).

Abstraction

“Technological change is not additive; it is ecological. New technology does

not merely add something; it changes everything.”
Originally, with the active participation of the learner instructor, the
implementation of ICT in education was to change the teaching and the learning process
from the traditional instructional teacher-centered endeavor to a learner-centered
approach with the active participation of the learner coach (Voogt et al., 2013).
The most natural part for the effective integration of ICT into the educational
system is given enough capital although the process of integration is complex and
multifaceted, like in curriculum and pedagogy, teacher competencies, institutional
readiness, and long-term financing,
To improve the quality of education, policymakers and implementation managers
must have a clear vision in investments of ICTs that requires a vast amount of money.
Such massive investments require not only careful planning for skills enhancement of

P a g e 19 | 189
both teachers and learners but also thoughtful implementation. Both policymakers and
implementation managers at the national and institutional levels need to plan for the
introduction of high technology and understand the contextual complexities of the
educational ecosystem of the communities.
Youths acquire ICT skills faster than adults, according to the studies of the World
Youth Report (2003) and more likely to share these skills with their peers either
intentionally or through interaction. Hu & McGrath (2012) study reports on the
implementation of the national reform in Chinese secondary schools. The study focused
on the use of ICT in teaching the English language. Findings indicated that the majority
of the teachers have a positive attitude towards ICT and happy with the current ICT use
in English. Moreover, results showed that some teachers find difficulties in changing
from the traditional pedagogical method of teaching to a technological based pedagogy.
Hu and McGrath (2012) suggested that continuous professional development programs
that can motivate the attitudes of teachers positively to equip them with new ICT skills
After substantial worldwide implementation ICT in schools, studies have found out
that those teachers who are more proficient in using ICT focus on the internet search and
word processing instead of project-based teaching ()Phelps, Graham, & Watts, 2011).
Mingaine (2013) observed that despite the benefits of ICT, the school management had
not fully implemented the policies developed by the Ministry of Education in Kenya.
They assert that some schools had developed guidelines on how to implement ICT, but
no attempt was made to achieve them. This prompted an investigation of challenges that
hindered the efficient implementation of ICT in public secondary schools in Meru
County.
Mooij and Smeets (2001) suggested five successive phases of ICT implementation
representing different levels of ICT transformation of the educational and learning
processes. These include:
(1) the incidental and isolated use of ICT by one or more teachers
(2) increasing awareness of ICT relevance at all levels
(3) emphasis on ICT co-ordination and hardware
(4) focus on didactic innovation and ICT support
(5) use of ICT-integrated teaching and learning that is independent of time and place
The study of Tondeur et al. (2008) entitled “ICT integration in the classroom:
challenging the potential of school policy. Findings showed that there is a potential
impact of policy-related factors on the actual integration of ICT in teaching-learning in
daily classroom instruction. Results suggested that success in ICT integration is related to
activities at the school level, like, ICT support, the development of an ICT plan, and ICT
training. The results also suggest that principals have a big role in facilitating the policies
put in place when defining this policy.

Implementing ICT safety issue policies regarding cyberbullying

You might have heard the term’ cyberbullying,’ and it means to try to hurt
someone’s feelings by using ICT such as the internet, email, chatrooms, and texting to
deliver demeaning messages at any time and through a variety of avenues. Today’s
children with online access and equipped with digital mobile phone or social network
account can receive cyberbully messages anywhere and at any time, and these digital
messages can also be anonymous, that increase the amount of fear experienced by the
target child. This intense psychological stress of victims of bullying unfavorably affects a
child’s ability to concentrate on schoolwork, and school lessons or activities.
Children who experience classic bullying and cyberbullying adversely affects their
academic performance. Those who experience classic bullying are likely to avoid
locations and activities they associate with negative experiences; likewise, cyberbullied
victims try to avoid the technological spaces. In cyberspace, technological areas such as
social media networking sites, online websites, social networks, chat programs, and
school computer rooms are all vital elements in the educational development and social
lives of students relevant to their academic success. As technology and technological
skills become more critical in modern academics and professional training, cyberbullied,
students face several academic and career difficulties.
The Government today unveiled tough new measures to be like the UK that is the
safest place in the world to be online.
These are the suggested safety policy measures:
 Independent regulator will be appointed to enforce stringent new standards
 Social media firms must abide by mandatory “duty of care” to protect users and
could face hefty fines if they fail to deliver
 Measures are the first of their kind in the world in the fight to make the internet a
safer place

In the first online safety laws of their kind, social media companies and tech firms
will be legally required to protect their users and face severe penalties if they do not
comply. The eSafety Toolkit for Schools is designed to support schools to create safer
P a g e 21 | 189
online environments. The resources are backed by evidence and promote a nationally
consistent approach to preventing and responding to online safety issues.
The resources are categorized into four elements: Prepare, Engage, Educate, and
Respond. Each contributes to creating safer online environments for school communities,
whether the resources from each element are used on their own or collectively, each
contributes to creating safer online environments for school communities.

 Prepare
Prepare resources to help schools evaluate their willingness to deal with online
safety issues and deliver suggestions to improve their practices. They are useful for
strengthening school policies and procedures in online safety.
 Engage
All members of your school community should be active participants in creating
and maintaining safe online environments. Engage resources to encourage the
participation of the school community in creating a safe online environment. They help
engage school community members as involved and valued participants, and they
facilitate the real involvement of students.
 Educate
Preventing an online incident is always better than having to respond to one. The
Educate resources support schools in developing the knowledge, skills, and capabilities
of students, staff, and parents to have positive and secure online experiences. They bid
best practice guidance for online safety education and sit alongside eSafety’s complement
of curriculum-aligned teaching-learning activities.

 Respond
There must be processes in place in case an incident happens so that it is controlled
appropriately. The Respond resources support schools to evaluate and respond to online
incidents effectively. They preserve digital evidence, offer guidance to understand
reporting requirements, minimized more harm, and supporting wellbeing.
eSafety developed the Toolkit in consultation across every state and territory with
government and non-government education sector representatives. It was established in
response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse
and the Education Council’s work program to report bullying and cyberbullying.

Abstraction

Globally, researchers and policymakers acknowledge the importance of

developing a school-based ICT policy plan to facilitate the integration of
information and communication technology (ICT) in education. Despite this interest,
P a g e 24 | 189
little is known about how schools can improve their local ICT policy capacity and how to
launch an ICT policy plan.

In many countries, the use of ICT in education and training has become a priority
during the last decade. However, very few have achieved progress. Indeed, a small
percentage of schools in some countries reached high levels of effective use of ICT to
support and change the teaching and learning process in many subject areas. Others are
still in the early phase of Information and Communication Technologies adoption. Those
schools with sufficient ICT resources have better results achievements compared to those
schools that are not well-equipped. Finally, teachers are more convinced that the
educational achievements of pupils are anticipated to good ICT use. There is a high
percentage of teachers in Europe (86%) say that students are more motivated when they
used computers and the Internet in class.

A lot of resources have been invested by many governments across the world to
ICT development to improve teaching and learning using technology in schools. New
educational ICT policy issues emerged, and new patterns of ICT related practices are
evident in education. To support traditional learning methods, many teachers use ICT to
know how ICT can promote teaching and learning, as explained by Khattak, (2015).
Furthermore, it has been proven that students have lots of benefits to new technologies.

Literature shows that ICT has a potential to enhance the teaching and learning
process in many ways if it is well-utilized in learner-centered schools According to
research conducted by Dzidonu, (2010), it shows that learning activities that are
challenging, authentic, multisensorial and multi-disciplinary, students are motivated with
higher attendance report, motivation and academic accomplishment as a result of ICT
programs.

When there are potential and promise of ICT use in education, there are also 'perils'
related to the distraction of existing traditional teaching and learning practices, such as
the high costs, increased responsibilities on teachers, equity, and issues around data
privacy and security. Four broad tangled issues must be addressed when considering the
overall impact of the use of ICTs in education, effectiveness, cost, equity, and
sustainability.

Policies related to technology use in change and evolve, often along a somewhat
predictable path, and technological innovations often outpace the ability of policymakers
to innovate on related policy issues. Such policies take different forms and are formulated
and proposed by various institutions in different countries. No matter what country, a
lack of rigorous, relevant evidence typically complicates attempts to draft impactful
ICT/education policies. The educational effectiveness of ICTs depends on how they are
used and for what purpose. ICTs do not work in other educational tools or educational
delivery for everyone, everywhere in the same way.

In developing countries, education takes place under situations that are substantially
different from those in developed countries. The poorest countries spend the least

P a g e 25 | 189
proportionately on non-salary related educational expenditures. The Philippines is one of
many developing nations that have turned to information and communication technology
(ICT) as a tool to improve teaching and learning, whose educational system reveals many
of the same problems and limitations of its fellow developing nations. Unfortunately,
implementation endures from several weaknesses: the absence of documentation and
information on how ICT is used; there is a lack of coordination between public and
private sector efforts; and not sufficient teacher preparation. More specifically, there is
uncertainty about whether computers in schools are fully utilized for educational
computing. There were also concerns that computers meant for students were instead
being used only by teachers for lesson plans preparation or playing games.

Educational researchers stated that lack of documentation regarding ICT use is a

problem that exists in many countries. In developing countries, data that could help
determine how scarce educational resources should be distributed or how effectively they
are being used are simply not available. Finally, teacher preparation is not sufficient.
Some training programs for teachers emphasize the use of specific software packages, but
the integration of ICT in the curriculum is overlooked (Ng et. al, 2009). If teachers dare
to use ICT without adequate training, they are likely to do it inaccurately.

Therefore, Philippine national policy has been formulated in the advanced use of
ICT in education. The Senate Committee on Education, in cooperation with the DECS,
launched Project CARES in March 2001. Project CARES was designed to upgrade the
use and application of ICT in public elementary and secondary schools nationwide
(Rimando, 2001). The primary concern of the project is the school administration to
respond to the need for accurate and timely data that administrators and teachers need to
manage their classes.

Philippines as a developing country are committed to instilling schools with ICT,

hopeful that these technologies will improve teaching and learning in today's knowledge
society. Subsequently, the government and the private sector have introduced programs
to deliver schools with computer hardware and software, Internet connectivity, and
teacher training. However, substantial gaps still exist in ICT program implementations.
There is a lack of data on schools’ use of ICT, so there is little basis for policy
formulation; furthermore, there is a lack of coordination between public and private
sector efforts. Within the ICT program, thus leads to wasted time, money, and human
resources. Finally, there is a demand for further teacher training in both computer literacy
and ICT integration in the curriculum. These gaps must be sufficiently addressed before
ICT can have a significant impact on teaching and learning in Philippine schools
(Rodrigo, 2001).

A. Policy Recommended Programs that have applications to education teaching-

learning:

1. ICT in Education Masterplan for all levels, including a National Roadmap for
Faculty Development in ICT in Education. A National Framework Plan for ICTs
in Basic Education was developed.

P a g e 26 | 189
 2. Content and application development through the Open Content in Education
Initiative (OCEI), which converts DepED materials into interactive multi-media
content, develops applications used in schools and conducts students’ and
teacher’s competitions to promote the development of education-related web
content.

3. PheDNET is a “walled” garden the hosts educational learning and teaching

materials and applications for use by Filipino students, their parents, and teachers.
All public high schools will be part of this network with only DepEd-approved
multi-media applications, materials, and mirrored internet sites accessible from
school ‘s PCs.

4. Established Community eLearning Centers called eSkwela for out-of-school

youth (OSY), providing them with ICT-enhanced alternative education
opportunities.

5. eQuality Program for tertiary education through partnerships with state

universities and colleges (SUCs) to improve the quality of IT education and the
use of ICT in education in the country, particularly outside of Metro Manila.

6. Digital Media Arts Program, which builds digital media skills for the government
using Open Source technologies. Particularly the beneficiary agencies
organizations, the Cultural Center of the Philippines, National Commission and
for Culture and Arts, State Universities, and local government units.

7. ICT skills strategic plan, which develops an inter-agency approach to identifying

strategic and policy and program recommendations to address ICT skills demand-
supply type.

B. Some Issues on ICT and Internet Policy and Regulations

Issue No. 1: Freedom of Expression and Censorship.

 The UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights provides that everyone has the
right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion, likewise the right to
freedom of opinion and expression.
 Censorship restricts the transmission of information by blocking it or filtering
information.

Issue No. 2: Privacy and Security

 Privacy means “personal privacy,” the right of individuals not to have their
home, private life, or personal life interfered with.
 Privacy of communication refers to the protection from interference with
transmission over the phone or the internet.
 Information privacy must be used for purposes and will not be disclosed to
others without the consent of the individuals.
P a g e 27 | 189
 Issue No. 3: Surveillance and Data Retention
 Indirect Surveillance – no direct contact between the agent and the
surveillance subject and but evidence of activities can be traced.
 Dataveillance –the use of personal information to monitor a person’s
activities.
 Data Retention – the storage and use of information from communication
systems.

Issue No. 4: E-pollutants from E-waste

 A large amount of E-waste is generated by ICT.

 These are in particular, terminal equipment for computing, broadcasting,
telephony, and peripherals.
 Material waste can be destroyed by crushing, toxic material brought by the
different equipment requires top management.

Application

The availability and the use of the new ICTs also encourage new types of
learning interactions: between teacher-learner, teacher-teacher, learner-experts, and
between learners-computer.

Passive Active

P a g e 36 | 189
Abstraction

Edgar Dale (1946) introduced Cone of Experience that reveals the development of
experiences from the very real to the extremely abstract (at the top of the Cone). The
Cone of Experience intends to notify students of how much a person’s recall established
on how they face the material.

The Cone charts the average retention rate of the knowledge for various teaching
methods. The further down the Cone you move, the higher the learning, and the more
knowledge is likely to be retained. It also indicates that it is important to note when
selecting an instructional method that engaging students in the process can improve the
retention of information. This shows that strategies of “action-learning” result in the
retention of up to 90 percent. Individuals learn better by using visual types of learning.
Perceptual types of learning are based on feelings. The more sensory channels are
possible in interacting with a resource, the better chance that many students can learn
from it (Diamond, 1989). According to Dale (1969), two teachers should develop lessons
that draw on more real-life experiences. Dale’s Cone of Experience is a device that helps
teachers make resource and activity choices.

Edgar Dale’s Cone of

Experience gives the following
interpretation:
1. Lower levels of the Cone
involve the student as a participant
and encourage active learning.
2. Pictures are remembered
better than verbal propositions.
3. The upper levels of the
Cone need more instructional support
than lower levels.
4. Abstractness increases as
we go up the Cone, and concreteness
increases as we go down the Cone.
5. Higher levels compress
information and provide data faster
for those who can process it.

What are these bands of experience in Dale’s Cone of Experience?

1. Direct Purposeful Experience - Some experiences have the least abstractness and
the maximum possible concreteness. Purposeful means interactions of one intent are
meaningful. Skills we gained in real life through our first-hand, direct involvement.
In a teaching-learning cycle, it is the best mode, means, or channels for the desired
outcomes. Teachers will also strive to provide the students with real-life realistic
experiences in the form of showing actual objects and enabling them to come into
direct contact with the realities of life themselves. Examples allow students to

P a g e 37 | 189
 prepare their meals, make a PowerPoint presentation, delivering a speech,
performing experiments, or making their furniture.

2. Contrived Experiences - These are not very rich, concrete, and direct as a real-life
experience. When the real thing cannot be accurately observed, artificial stimuli can
be given as a working model or as specific experiments in the laboratory. The
working model is the editing of fact, which varies in size or complexity from the
original. It includes models, mock-ups, experiments, and so on. We may delete the
needless information in a condensed and edited version of the real thing, and make
the learning simple. A mock-up of Apollo, the moon exploration spacecraft, for
example, allowed the North American Aviation Co. to research the lunar flight
problem.

Examples of Contrived Experiences:

Model- A replication in a small scale or a large scale or exact size

of a real item- but made of synthetic materials. It is a substitute
for a real item that may or may not be operational – Gray, et. In
1969, al.

Mockup- Is an arrangement of a real device or associated

devices displayed in such a way that representation of
reality is created. A unique model where the parts of a
model are singled out, heightened and magnified to focus
on that part or process under study. Example: Planetarium

Specimen- An individual animal, plant, piece of a mineral, etc. It is

used as an example of its species or type for scientific study or display.
An example is a product or piece of work, regarded as typical of its
class or group—a sample for medical testing, especially of urine.

Object- May also include artifacts displayed in a

museum or objective displayed in exhibits or
preserved insect specimens in science.

Simulation- A representation of a real manageable event in which the learner is an

active participant engage in learning behavior or in applying previously acquired
skills or knowledge

3. Dramatized Experiences – The experience gained through active participation and

role-playing in dramatic activities. Activities in which visual representation and role-
P a g e 38 | 189
playing depict the actual events of the past or present. It is useful in the teaching-
learning of subjects like history, political science, language, and literature. The pupil
who takes part in dramatization gets closer to direct experience than a student who
watches it. The plays can be a variety of forms, such as full-length play, one-act play,
puppet show, pageants (a kind of group drama focused on local history), mime,
tableau, dialogs, spot-spontaneous acting, and mock conventions, etc. We revive the
eruption of the revolution in the Philippines by playing the role of characters in a
drama.

Plays - depict life, character, culture, or a combination of the three. They offer
excellent opportunities to portray vividly essential ideas about life.

Pageants are usually community dramas that are based on

local history. An example is a historical pageant that traces
the growth of a school.

Pantomime is a "method of conveying a story by bodily

gestures." Pantomime's impact on the audience rely on
the actors' movements.

Tableau is a picture-like scene composed of people against a

background. It is an arrangement of people who do not move
or speak, especially on a stage, who represents a view of life,
an event, etc.

Role-Playing is an unrehearsed, unprepared, and

spontaneous dramatization of a situation where
their roles absorb assigned participants. You
pretend to be someone else or pretend to be in a
particular position you are not really in at the
moment.

Puppets - A puppet is an inanimate object or

representational figure animated or manipulated by
an entertainer, who is called a puppeteer. Puppets
can present ideas with extreme simplicity.

P a g e 39 | 189
 Types of Puppets

Shadow puppets – flat, black silhouette made from lightweight cardboard shown
behind a screen.

Rod puppets – flat, cut-out figures tacked to a stick with one or more
movable parts, and are operated below the stage through wires or
rods.

Glove-and-finger puppets – make use of gloves in which

small costumed figures are attached.

Marionettes – a flexible, jointed puppet operated by strings or

wires attached to a crossbar and maneuvered from directly above
the stage.

4. Demonstrations – It’s a visual description of a significant reality, concept, or

process. Students can watch how certain things are done either in the form of actual
objects or models. Specific complicated procedures can be performed by the teacher
for the benefit of pupils who are reduced to the position of passive listeners. For
better performance, the teacher should try to involve the students in the
demonstration process by asking questions and answering them or by helping them
plan the demonstration and execute it. For example, a teacher in Physical Education
shows the class how to dance the tango.

5. Study Trips – It is a planned point visit or a location outside the daily classroom.
This is an organized situation in the form of tours, flights, hikes, and excursions.
Provide the students with valuable opportunities to offer direct real-life experiences.
Learning several principles, gaining relevant information, knowledge, and skills (in
combination with lots of entertainment) related to the school’s various issues;
curriculum. We put the classroom back into the community and the community’s
concerns back into the school.

 Eco-Adventure Trip - Biology Field Trip
Museum of Natural History Trip - Social Science Field Trip
Reward Trip - Celebration/Fun Field Trip
Aviation Museum Trip - Military History Field Trip
Heritage Museum Trip- Culture Field Trip
Historic Church Trip - Religious Field Trip

6. Exhibits – Bring the outside world into the classroom employing exhibits, the
concrete representation of the things. The teacher can help the students by gaining
useful experience through the observation and organization of educationally
significant exhibitions. Exhibits are less real or direct in terms of providing direct
practical experience. These may consist of meaningfully organized working models
or photographs of templates, maps, and posters. Many exhibitions are “only for your
eyes.” However, several shows provide interactive opportunities in which visitors
can touch or manipulate the displayed models.

7. Television and motion pictures – Television and movie clips can so expertly
recreate the history of the past, that we have to feel like we’re there. The special
meaning of the messages that film and television deliver lies in their sense of reality,
their focus on individuals and personality, their organization presentation, and their
ability to select, dramatize, highlight, and clarify.

8. Still, pictures, Recordings, Radio - This stage includes the number of devices that
might be classified roughly as one-dimensional aids because they use only one sense
organ that is either eye (seeing) or ear (hearing). All these materials are less direct
than audio-visual experiences.

9. Visual symbols - There are no longer practical reproductions of material objects, for
such representations are incredibly abstract. Visible concepts that describe something
intangible by association and something that reflects or stands for something else,
usually by association or by way of definition of something abstract. Visual
perception has a predictive framework that is interesting. This contains visual
graphic resources such as charts, maps, diagrams, sketches, posters, comics, photos,
drawings on blackboards, and illustrations. The visual symbols (free to use any
language) form a primary contact language.

Drawings - A drawing might not be a real thing but

better than nothing to have practical visual help. To
prevent ambiguity, it is important that the real thing is
depicted correctly by our drawing.

Cartoons The cartoon is another useful visual symbol

which can add innovation to our teaching. Metaphorically
a first-rate cartoon reveals its story.

P a g e 41 | 189
Strip drawings - A series of sketches linked to a funny story
or an adventure in a newspaper, magazine, etc. It is a series
of adjacent, typically horizontally organized images which
are intended to be read as a narrative or a sequential
sequence.

Diagrams - It is any line drawing that shows arrangement and relations as of parts to
the whole, relative values, origins and development, chronological fluctuations,
distributions, etc. (Dale, 1969)

Types of Diagrams

Affinity Diagram - used to cluster complex

apparently unrelated data into natural and
meaningful groups. An affinity diagram is to
arrange ideas into a specific or natural
relationship. Bananas, bananas, and oranges, for
example, would be grouped as fruits while green
beans, broccoli, and carrots would be grouped as
vegetables.

Tree Diagram – A tree diagram is a modern method for

planning management that defines the hierarchy of tasks
and subtasks required to complete and be objective. The
tree diagram begins with one element, then branches out
to two or more, each branching into two or more, and so
on. The finished diagram is like a tree, with a trunk and
many branches.

Fishbone Diagram - Often referred to as the cause

and effect diagram or Ishikawa diagram is a
visualization method for categorizing the possible
causes of the root cause of the issue. A fishbone
diagram usually used for root cause analysis
incorporates the brainstorming technique with a
form of mind map design.

Charts - It is a diagrammatic representation of individual connections within an

organization.
P a g e 42 | 189
Types of Charts

Time Chart a tabular time diagram displaying data in

ordinal series.

Tree or Stream Chart shows creation, growth and

change starting with a simple course spreading out over
several branches

Flowchart visual way of showing a process from

beginning to end. A diagram of the series of
individual gestures or acts or events involved in a
complex structure or operation.

Organizational Chart Shows how one part of the

company applies to other sections. It is a graphical
representation of the structure which shows the
relationships within the positions or jobs.

Comparison and Contrast Chart shows similarities and

differences.

Pareto chart Is a type of bar chart, prioritized from left to

right in decreasing order of magnitude or importance

Gannt chart is an activity time chart. A

diagram displaying a sequence of horizontal
lines representing the amount of work

P a g e 43 | 189
completed or produced during different periods to the amount expected for those
periods

Graphs - Pictures helping us to understand the details. A diagram showing the

relationship between the variable quantities, usually two variables, each calculated at
the right angles along with one of a pair of axes.

Circle Graph –A visual representation of data

made by dividing a circle into sectors that each
represent parts of a whole. Usually, the amounts in
each area are expressed in percent, so that all of
the amounts total of 100%.

Bar Graph – Using to compare the

magnitude of the same things at different
relations or to see the relative sizes of the
entire pieces. Also, the numerical values of
variables are represented by the height or
length of lines or rectangles of equal width.

Pictorial Graph – a visual representation of data

by using pictograms. It uses icons or pictures in
relative sizes to highlight some data patterns and
trends.

Graphic organizers – In your subject, you've encountered many graphic leaders,

teaching values. Also known as knowledge map, idea map, story map, cognitive
organizer, advance organizer, or idea diagram, this is a pedagogical method that uses
visual symbols to communicate knowledge and concepts through interactions
between them.

Maps - Is a reflection of the earth's surface or a part thereof.

P a g e 44 | 189
 Physical Map Is altitude, temperature, precipitation, rainfall, vegetation, and soil. A
diagram of known iconic places on chromosomes. In base pairs, the actual distance is
determined between landmarks.

Relief Map is a three dimensional represents and

shows contours of the physical data of the earth or
part of the earth. It is indicating hills and valleys
by shading rather than by contour lines alone, also
elevations and depressions representing hills and
valleys, typically on an exaggerated relative scale.

Political maps are reference maps commonly used. They 're put
worldwide on the walls of classrooms. They display the
geographical boundaries between units of government, such
as nations, states, and counties. We show highways,
cities, and significant water features like oceans, rivers,
and lakes.

Poster - A large printed picture, photograph, or notice that you stick or pin to a wall
or board, usually for decoration or to advertise something.

10. Verbal symbols - They are not like the artifacts or concepts they stand for. They do
not generally contain visual references to their meaning. To express any meaning,
verbal representations are words, phrases, sounds, or other utterances that are spoken
aloud. The verbal symbol may be a phrase, an idea, a concept, a scientific theory, a
formula, a philosophical aphorism, or some other representation of the experience
listed in any verbal symbolization. Published terms fall into that range. It may be a

P a g e 45 | 189
 word for a concrete-object (book), an idea (freedom of speech), a scientific principle
(the principle of balance), a formula (e=mc2)

Dale's Cone of Experience as a tool to help my students build learning experiences.

The Cone of Experience corresponds with three significant modes of learning:

 Enactive (direct experience), - Enactive or direct contact includes working with

objects (the student joins a knot to practice knot tying). The enactive perception
requires direct action and effective use of the senses and the body.
 Iconic (pictorial experience) - Iconic learning includes reading photos and
sketches (the student looks at paintings, pictures, or movies to learn how to tie
knots). Iconic perception is separated from the world of science and limited to two
or three senses.
 Symbolic (highly abstract experience)- Symbolic experience involves reading
or hearing symbols (the student learns or hears the word “knot” and forms an
image in mind). In symbolic experience, the action is removed nearly altogether,
and the experience is limited to thoughts and ideas.

Application

A. Based on the concepts presented above, design a lesson that will employ activities
that can be found on the bottom parts of the Cone of Experience, particularly proving
a direct, purposeful experience.

B. Reflect on the following questions.

1. Think about your most unforgettable learning experience. How was it (or how
was it not) a “rich experience” as defined by Dale?

P a g e 46 | 189
 __________________________________________________________________

2. Dale thought a rich experience would be “emotionally satisfying” and “motivate

[learners] to read throughout their lives.” Describe an experience you’ve had that
has been emotionally satisfying and inspired you to continue learning throughout
your life.

You did it! Now that you’ve already learned Cone of Experience’s
consequences for teaching and learning, you can now move on to the next lesson,
TPACK Framework for Effective Pedagogical Practice.

Lesson 2

TPACK Framework for Effective Pedagogical Practice

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:

 Understand and describe the Technological pedagogical content
knowledge (TPACK) framework needed by a teacher for effective
pedagogical practice in a technology-enhanced learning environment.
 Select and employ appropriate technology tools in designing a lesson.

Time Frame 3days

Introduction

P a g e 47 | 189
 As you put together to be a teacher, how do you validate your content knowledge
with your specialization? In terms of your teaching competencies, what strategies
techniques do you understand will work if you use it when teaching? You will keep in
mind the use of the technological device when teaching, what would be?

Teaching subjects or courses are challenging. However, technology has the

potential to help. To increase the chance of technology assisting students in learning,
teachers must develop technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK).

TPACK emerges, which forces you to look at the process of using technology in
the classroom clearly and concisely. By looking at each aspect of this framework as a
separate but equally important type of knowledge, you can make the right educational
decisions on how, when, and what kind of technology to use in instruction. Teachers as
curriculum designers can integrate their knowledge of student thinking and learning, the
subject matter, and technology to create useful lessons.

In the lesson, you will begin to explore the TPACK model or framework.

Abstraction

What is TPACK?

TPACK is a Useful framework for researchers working to explain the convergence

of learning and teaching technologies. Based on Shulman’s (1986) concept of PCK,
Mishra, and Koehler (2006) included technology to PCK and described the resulting
TPCK as the interlocking of technology, pedagogy, and content. TPACK is a system
tailored to the dynamic interactions of teacher knowledge of content (CK), pedagogy
(PK), and technology (TK). Integrating technology and pedagogy into a given topic may
require complex intersections such as TPK (technological pedagogical knowledge), PCK
(pedagogical content knowledge), and TCK (technological content knowledge). Doering
et al. (2009) emphasized the dynamic nature of TPACK, an evolving and multifaceted
(rather than static) representation of teacher knowledge, as new technologies emerge for
integration into particular content areas.

At the heart of excellent teaching with technology are three essential factors:
content, pedagogy, and technology, plus the relationships among and between them. The
dynamics between and among the three elements played out differently in various
contexts account for the substantial differences seen in the size and nature of the
incorporation of educational technology. These three knowledge roots (content,
pedagogy, and technology) form the core of the technology, pedagogy, and content
knowledge (TPACK) framework (Koehler & 2008; Mishra & Koehler, 2006).

The TPACK framework was proposed to emphasize the need to situate technology
knowledge within the content and pedagogical knowledge. TPACK considers teachers’
expertise As dynamic and multifaceted, critical techno-centric approaches focusing on
the achievement of technical competences separate from pedagogy and content. Seven
components (see Figure 1) are comprised of the TPACK Framework. They are described
as:

P a g e 51 | 189
 Figure 1. Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (Koehler & Mishra, 2009;
adapted from Koehler & Mishra, 2008)

1. Technology knowledge (TK): Knowledge of various technologies. They range

from low-tech technology like pencil and paper to emerging technologies like the
internet, digital media, interactive whiteboards, and software programs. TK is
about recognizing educational technology, evaluating its possibilities for a
particular subject area or classroom, learning how to identify whether it can assist
or hinder learning, and continually learning and adjusting to emerging technology
offerings.
2. Content knowledge (CK): Awareness of the actual subject matter that teachers
need to learn about teaching. This explains the appreciation teachers have of the
subject matter. CK may include knowledge of principles, hypotheses, facts, and
organizational structures within a given subject matter; it may also include the
best practices of the field and existing methods for presenting this information to
students. The CK will also differ according to the level of discipline and grade.
Senior high school science and history classes, for example, require less detail and
scope than undergraduate or graduate courses, so the CK of their different
teachers will differ, or the CK that each teacher imparts to their students can
differ.
3. Pedagogical knowledge (PK): Awareness of teaching strategies and processes
such as classroom management, assessment, creation of the lesson plan, and
learning of the students. As a general type of information, PK covers educational
objectives, principles, and goals and can extend to more specific fields, including
recognizing student learning styles, lesson planning, and assessments.

P a g e 52 | 189
 4. Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK): This defines the awareness of teachers
about the essential areas of teaching and learning, including the creation of
curricula, student evaluation, and reporting performance. PCK focuses on
encouraging learning and exploring the ties between pedagogy and its supporting
activities (curriculum, assessment, etc.), and similar to CK, may also differ
depending on the grade level and subject matter. However, in all situations, PCK
seeks to improve teaching practices by building more consistent linkages between
the material and the pedagogy used to communicate it.
5. Technological content knowledge (TCK): Knowledge of how technology can
create new representations for specific content. TCK requires an awareness of
how the subject can be conveyed through different educational technology
offerings and considering which specific educational technology tools might be
best suited for particular subject matters or classrooms.
6. Technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK): Knowledge of various
technologies that can be used in teaching and learning experiences. Another
dimension of TPK relates to understanding how to apply these resources
alongside pedagogy in ways relevant to the discipline and the creation of the
lesson at hand.
7. Technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK): Focus on the
knowledge required by teachers for integrating technology into their teaching in
any content area. Teachers, who have TPACK, act with an intuitive understanding
of the complex interplay between the three essential components of knowledge
(CK, PK, and TK). TPACK is the culmination of these complex combinations and
desires, drawing from them – and from the three wider underlying fields of
content, pedagogy, and technology – to create a useful framework for teaching
using educational technologies. For teachers to use the TPACK system
effectively, they should be open to unique, critical ideas, including:
 Concepts of the taught material can be expressed using technology;
 Pedagogical techniques can use technology to communicate content in
various ways;
 Different subject definitions allow students to have specific ability levels and
educational technology may help address some of these requirements;
 Students have various experiences in the classroom – like previous
educational experience and technology exposure – and lessons using
educational technology should take this opportunity into account;
 Educational technology may be used in combination with established
awareness of the students, either by improving previous epistemologies or by
introducing new ones.

This incentive is most apparent if teachers are unexpectedly forced to address

fundamental educational issues and restore the complex equilibrium between all three
elements using new educational technology. This view inverts the traditional view that
pedagogical priorities and innovations are derived from the curricula in the subject field.
Things are rarely that simple, mainly when newer technologies are employed.

P a g e 53 | 189
 Teaching with technology is a hard thing to do right. The TPACK paradigm
suggests that contextual such as content, pedagogy, technology, and teaching/learning
have roles to play both individually and together. Excellent teaching with technology
involves continuous development, maintenance, and restoration of a dynamic equilibrium
between all components. It’s means noting that there are a variety of variables that affect
how this balance is achieved.

Application

1. You are now ready to design your TPACK lesson plans using and applying the
knowledge baseline you learned to the topic.

2. Reflect on the following questions:

According to Mishra & Koehler (2006), “the simple incorporation of technology

into the educational process is not enough.” Many approaches to the professional
development of teachers provide a one-size-fits-all approach to technology integration
when, in reality, teachers work as a potential teacher in a variety of teaching and learning
contexts – facing these challenges.

How can teachers incorporate technology into their instruction?

Closure

Well done! You have just finished Lesson 2 of this Module. Should there be some
parts of the lesson which you need clarification, ask your teacher during your face-to-face
interactions or other means of communication.
Now, if you are ready, please proceed to Lesson 3 of this Module, which will discuss
the ASSURE model.

P a g e 54 | 189
 Lesson 3

The ASSURE Model

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the lesson you are expected to:

 Understand the concept of the Assure model in designing lessons with
technology.
 Apply the ASSURE model in planning and creating a lesson.

Time Frame 3 Days

Introduction

This section will discuss one instructional design model that can be used in
planning instruction for teaching. The ASSURE instructional design (ID) model uses a
six-step process to effectively integrate the use of technology and media into lessons to
improve student learning. For successful instruction to occur, cautious arranging is
required. As a future teacher, this model is intended to help you viably coordinate
media/innovation into your lesson or instructions - to help “guarantee” learning.

Activity

Examines the teachers’ use of the ASSURE model to create technology-integrated

lessons and implement these lessons with their students in a variety of settings. Answer
the questions in the analysis section below.

ASSURE Model Lesson Plan

Lesson Title: Macbeth Introduction

Grade Level: Grade 11
Lesson Length: 90-minute block

I. Analyze Learners

Learners’ general characteristics: The lesson is designed for 11th-grade high school
students. This is an in-class support class comprised of 7 male and 11 female students, of
which six (6) students have Individualized Education Program (IEP) accommodations.
Academic ability and learning styles vary. In general, students become easily distracted and
lose focus quickly. The students are familiar with the work of William Shakespeare and are
capable of identifying the various literary devices found in work.

P a g e 55 | 189
Entry characteristics: The students in this class are skilled in the use of computers and
tablets. However, their proficiency in this technology is limited to the use of social media and
entertainment applications.

Learning styles: Although the class is comprised of students of all learning styles, the majority
of students in this class are tactile learners.

II. State Standards and Objectives

This lesson is designed to meet the Common Core Standards for Language Arts. The
standards covered in this lesson plan include:
Objective 1: The students will be able to determine the atmosphere created in Act I, scene i of
the play and discuss how language and choice setting is responsible for that atmosphere.

Curriculum Standard
Analyze the impact of the author’s choices regarding how to develop and relate
elements of a story or drama (e.g., where a story is set, how the action is ordered, how
the characters are introduced and developed)

Objective 2: The students will be able to rewrite Act I, Scene i of Macbeth, using modern
terminology.

Curriculum Standard
Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in the text, including
figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the impact of specific word choices on
meaning and tone, including words with multiple meanings or language that is
particularly fresh, engaging, or beautiful.

Objective 3: Students will be able to understand the significance of Act I, scene i of Macbeth

Curriculum Standard
Analyze how an author’s choices concerning how to structure specific parts of a text
(e.g., the choice of where to begin or end a story, the choice to provide a comedic or
tragic resolution) contribute to its overall structure and meaning as well as its aesthetic
impact.

Objective 4: Students will experience varying interpretations of Act I, scene i of Macbeth and
produce their interpretation

Curriculum Standard
Analyze multiple interpretations of a story, drama, or poem (e.g., recorded or live
production of a play or recorded novel or poetry), evaluating how each version interprets
the source text. (Include at least one play by Shakespeare and one play by an American
dramatist.)

III. Select Strategies, Methods, Media, and Materials

Strategies. A variety of teacher-centered and student-centered approaches have been designed

for this lesson.

Technology and Materials. Students will have access to computers, printers, microphones,
P a g e 56 | 189
headphones, word processing software, video, and audio editing software, and the Internet.

Media. Students will use print, audio, texts, visuals such as photos, and clip art or drawings to
create assignments.

IV. Utilize Technology, Media, and Materials

Prepare the materials: With the assistance of the instructional technology coordinator,
Classroom computers and chrome books will be checked and ready for student’s use.
Appropriate software will be accessible to the students.

Prepare the environment: Desks are to be arranged in a manner that allows for small group
work. Additionally, a computer station must be accessible to all students to complete various
aspects of the assignment.

Prepare the learners: Students will have been prepared for this lesson during the lesson

Prior. Students have notes on Shakespeare and literary devices, which can be referred to as
needed.

V. Require Learner Participation

Student participation in this lesson will include both large and small group activities. The
lesson is structured to begin with, with large group instruction and activities to prepare for the
smaller group activities.
Large group activities: The lesson will begin with students assuming roles and reading
Act I, scene i of Macbeth. A brief discussion will focus on what the students
think
is happening in the scene. Student reading will be followed by students listening
to a recording of the scene. Using the Promethean Board, students will begin to
develop a comparison chart of what they read and what they heard. This will be
followed by viewing the performance of the scene via YouTube. Students will
add to the chart upon completion of the viewing.

Small group activities: The students will break into groups of three or four to rewrite
the scene they have just watched. They will use computers to access the internet
for research and assistance. Once rewritten, students will use PowerPoint
presentation software to present their version of Act I, scene i to the class.

VI. Evaluate and Revise

Student activities will be evaluated using the rubric (you can attach your rubric)

What is ASSURE Model?

The ASSURE model is an instructional framework or rule that instructors can use
to create lesson plans which coordinate the utilization of innovation of technology and
media (Smaldino, Lowther and Russell, 2008). The ASSURE Model emphasizes the
student and the general result of achieving learning targets. The ASSURE model is an
enhanced advancement of the ADDIE general model. Although the ASSURE model has
six stages, which don’t relate to ADDIE’s five, ASSURE additionally presents
configuration stages, and offers with it the two principle includes: the underlying
spotlight on examination and the cyclic structure.
The exceptional component of this model is that it is centered around “arranging
and directing Instruction that fuses media” (Heinich, Molenda and Russel, 1993). Its
principal point of view is on the best way to incorporate media (any sort of media) into
guidance in a technique equipped for delivering the ideal learning results. Created by
Robert Heinich and Michael Molenda decades prior, the ASSURE model picked up
ubiquity due to its utilization in a well-known
course reading for instructors.
It is a notable instructional structure
control that utilizes the constructivist point of
view, which integrates multimedia and
technology to upgrade the learning condition

P a g e 58 | 189
(Lefebvre 2006). The ASSURE model was altered to be used by educators in the study
hall by Smaldino, Lowther, and Russell, 2008. The teacher leans toward the ASSURE
model since it is intended to be utilized for a couple of long stretches of instruction and
every individual understudy. This model doesn’t require high multifaceted nature of
conveyed media, profound ID information, or high correction of plans (Gustafson and
Branch, 2002). The ASSURE model gives the new or beginner teacher a general guide to
follow to assist them with deduction increasingly like experienced teachers.
This model was developed by Heinrich and Molenda in 1999 and is based closely
on the Instruction Events of Robert Gagne. Furthermore, Smaldino, Lowther & Russell,
2008, adapted the ASSURE model to be used by teachers in the classroom.
Understanding when to use teaching techniques and immersive technology is key to
being successful academically in the future.

Six Steps of ASSURE Model

The ASSURE Model has six steps, each represented by a letter in the acronym title,
with each step describing a set of tasks central to the informed selection and use of
educational technology. The ASSURE acronym stands for these essential components:

Analyze Learners - The first step in the process is to make the instructor evaluate her
learners’ attributes. Those learner characteristics that are correlated with the optimal
learning outcomes should be given a priority. The collected information will help you
with the decisions you make on the other steps in the process. When you assess the
learners’ character, this will help you in choosing different techniques and tools to assist
the learning process. Your learner analyzes will include:
 General attributes of learners (e.g., age, academic abilities, gender, interests, etc.
 Prior competencies
 Learning styles, such as auditory, visual, and tactile

State Objectives - The next step in planning is to state the objectives of the lesson or
presentation accurately. Targets must be specified in terms of what the learner (not the
instructor or presenter) would do as a result of the training (in behavioral conditions).
Your lesson will have two or three clear targets. Usually, goals include four (4) essential
parts:
 A statement that describes the intended Audience. For example, “The first-grade
student will . . .” or “The student will . . . “
 A description of the student’s anticipated Behavior resulting from your teaching.
This conduct must be detected to be assessable. For example, it is beneficial to
use action verbs such as add, alphabetize, organize, construct, pick, classify,
contrast, define, describe, diagram, identify, kick, mark, locate, create, multiply,
name, produce, pronounce, choose, sketch, sort, determine, say, throw,
emphasize, verbalize and compose. Ignore such terms as learning, appreciating,
grasping, or understanding.
 A description of the Condition to be observed for results. What tools does it
require the student to use (e.g., a map, a dictionary)? Which tools or equipment

P a g e 59 | 189
 does it need the student to use? Will the student be permitted to use notes or a
summary when composing an article?
 A declaration of the learner’s Degree of accuracy or ability must be demonstrated
to pass forward. The conditions should be based on the real-world and not
specified on the multiple-choice test. Time and efficiency are also crucial to other
purposes. Will an English student in 11th grade be able to write a theme in 5
paragraphs within 50 minutes? If a third-grade student can solve at least seven of
ten single-digit multiplication problems, can the instructor believe he or she has
mastered the concept?

Select Media and Materials - In this step, you have set the starting point (the student’s
current information, aptitudes, and perspectives) and the consummation point (objectives)
of your instruction. Presently your activity is the fabricate an instructional scaffold that
will associate the two focuses. You may choose accessible materials, change existing
materials, or structure new materials to help achieve the task. You may select a few
distinct kinds of media to use with the unit. Any of the media/innovations examined in
the content will be fitting.

Utilize Media and Materials - Here you should choose how the students will utilize the
materials. Next, set up the room and be sure the essential hardware and offices are
accessible and prepared for your utilization before you use the exercise. It’s vital to
follow the “five p’s” process to achieve this:
 Preview the Technology, Media, and Materials
 Prepare the Technology, Media, and Materials
 Prepare the Environment
 Prepare the Learners
 Provide the Learning Experience

Require Learner Performance - This step expects you to depict how you will get every
student effectively and exclusively engaged with the exercise. Students understand best
when they are effectively engaged with the learning experience. Whatever your teaching
approaches, make sure to fuse questions and replies, conversations, group work, hands-on
exercises, and different methods of getting the students engaged effectively with the
learning of the contents. You should give close consideration to your students and feel
sure that they are really getting a handle on the content and not merely tuning in. Taking
an interest in the learning will encourage this degree of comprehension. Permit them to
build information instead of attempting to feed them with information. Finally, for this
step, feedback must be provided to the learner before any type of evaluation is conducted.

Evaluate and Revise - The last advance of the ASSURE technique is to Evaluate
Student Performance. Here the assessment ought to be coordinated to the target.
Eventually, this final stage is the most significant. You should assess the guidance
procedure through, and through utilizing the goals you made before all else. It is useful to
consider your complaints, the instructional process, the instructional materials, and the

P a g e 60 | 189
appraisal. By assessing the students against the targets, it tends to be resolved if the
exercise was successful and whether any progression should be altered or rethought.

The ASSURE lesson plan model guides in the joining of innovation into study hall
guidance. It fills in as a guide for educators and spotlights fair and square of innovative
help applied. The best possible utilization of this model will enhance day by day
exercises and understudy exercises and expand the capability of open innovations.

Application

Develop an ASSURE lesson plan based on the above concepts and apply all the
insights that you have gained in this lesson.

Closure

Congratulations! You have positively answered the endeavors and tasks for this
lesson. It is not out of the ordinary that you have taken a great deal from this exercise. If
there are a few pieces of the activity that you don’t comprehend, don’t hesitate to ask
your teacher through instant message, email, or different methods for correspondence
accessible.

You have just finished this Module. Enjoy the next module and gained more
understandings of ICT in various content areas. Have fun learning! But before that,

MODULE SUMMARY
You are awesome! You have completed Module 3, which is all about Theories and
Principles in the Use and Design of Technology-Driven Learning Lessons. Essential
points covered in the Module include:

 The Cone of Experience is a visual depiction of the idea that learning events can
be put in specific categories based on the extent to which the non-abstract
referents of real-life experiences express themselves.

 Dale’s explanations are vague enough to allow a wide variation of understandings

to rely upon. Nevertheless, Cone has been considered for many ways to bear
witness to the vigor and attractiveness of Dale’s visual metaphor.

 The TPACK framework was proposed to emphasize the need to situate

technology knowledge within the content and pedagogical knowledge. TPACK
considers teachers’ expertise As dynamic and multifaceted, critical techno-centric
approaches focusing on the achievement of technical competences separate from
pedagogy and content.

 With the increasing focus on technology, we also need to learn how to combine
technology with our content and pedagogy to create a productive learning
environment.

 ASSURE model, even though it was incorporated from Gagne’s nine events of
instruction, and both models are very similar. The main reason this model is my
personal preference is that it is intended for planning and delivery of teaching

P a g e 64 | 189
 with technology and media, and therefore makes it appropriate for planning
distance education.

 ASSURE model to instruct teachers on how to prepare and implement lessons

that incorporate technology efficiently into their teaching in the classroom. Its
simple, realistic approach has made it one of the education arena’s most
commonly taught models of instruction.

Introduction

With the upsurge of the 21st century, the whole world has seen a period of
extraordinary change in all territories, regardless of whether it is instruction, worldwide
exchange, and economy, innovation, or society. As of late, the COVID-19 pandemic is
likewise hurling difficulties for a person to adapt to its effects. Usually, for such
occasions, an alternate range of abilities is required that would empower an individual to
adapt up and prevail with regards to confronting the difficulties, all things considered,
prompting his/her comprehensive advancement.
These abilities are tended to as 21st Century Skills/Learning Skills/Transversal
Competencies and so on. The 21st Century Skills are the aptitudes that are required by a
person for his/her all-encompassing turn of events with the goal that he/she can add to the
advancement and improvement of the general public/country and world.
Effective instruction in 21st-century literacies takes an integrated approach, helping
students understand how to access, evaluate, synthesize, and contribute to the
information. As a forthcoming teacher of the 21st century, you need to be familiar with
the latest literacies, or new fields of learning that you need to illustrate and prioritize
while managing teaching and learning activities. But first, these literacies need to be
established yourself before you can pass them on to your students.

Abstraction

What are 21st Century Skills?

The word ‘abilities of the 21st century’ refers to a wide range of believed
expertise, skills, work habits, and character traits by educators, school reformers, college
professors, employers, and others to be critically important to success in today’s world.
21st Century Skills refer to the skills that are required to enable an individual to face the
challenges of the 21st-century world that is globally-active, digitally transforming,
collaboratively moving forward, creatively progressing, seeking competent human-
resource and quick in adopting changes.

Wagner (2010) and the Change Leadership at Harvard University identified

another set of competencies and skills. Informed by several hundred interviews with
business, non- profit and education leaders, Wagner stressed that the students need seven
survival skills to prepare for life, work and citizenship in the 21st century: Critical
thinking and problem
solving, collaboration and leadership, agility and adaptability, initiative and
entrepreneurialism, effective oral and written communication, accessing and analyzing
information, curiosity and imagination.

What is 21st Century Literacy Skill?

Information, both from the traditional sources

like Books, Newspapers, etc. and other digital
sources like the Internet sites, social media,
Apps, etc. is to be used effectively and
judiciously by students. It is to be seen carefully
by the teachers that information available is
used at all levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy. They
must be able to recall, understand, apply,
interpret, assess the information provided, and
build new knowledge.

In Growing Up Digital: How the Net Generation

Is Changing Your World, gives the following
eight reasons why students use technology:

 Freedom of expression
 Facility to use it as per likings
 Multiple resources of information
 Open interaction
 Blend of work and play
 Connecting and collaborating
 Exploring and Innovating

Tabular presentation of the basis, purpose, and strategy in the digital classroom.
Basis • Accessing Information
• Collaborating
• Communicating
• Using Information
• Analysing Information
• Interpreting Information
• Creating New Information
Purpose IMT makes the learning environment more exciting than
a traditional classroom environment and helps the
students perform better in their respective careers.
Strategy Digital classroom • With traditional blackboard, digital interactive boards
P a g e 78 | 189
 should be placed in the classroom.
• This will aid in the teaching-learning process. In
teaching
of lesson related to space, teachers can show videos of
space to children for long-lasting memories.

Activities that develop 21st Century Literacy skills

Know-How
The teacher must show the children
how to look for the details and where to
look. Then the teacher will give them topics
to explore and will see how children are
seeking and if they were following her
instructions or not.

Design an App
Students will be asked to identify a
problem (environment/ societal /school-
related) and design an App using ICT to
offer a viable solution to it. Even if they do
not have the technical know-how to create
an App, they will plan it on paper by
preparing a detailed write-up on the why,
what, how, etc. of the App. This would also
enhance their critical thinking and decision
making.

Designing a Blog, Website, PPT

Ask children to design a PPT or blog and see how they do that. Tell them what all
can be done in the PPT or blog. This will help children to get information about how to
use Powerpoint and Microsoft word etc.

Abstraction

Instructional Design Model

An instructional model serves as an anchor wherein the journey to learning is
rooted. There are various instructional designs created to keep track of the efficiency of
the instructions. Through different models of instructions, teachers were able to draw
some inspirations on the different techniques and strategies patterned on the models of
instructions. Nevertheless, teachers should bear in mind that there is such no such thing
as a perfect model. Still, it will be in the appropriateness of the model and how the
teacher processes the learning for such a model to be effective.
In a nutshell, different instructional design models to be mentioned in this lesson
are as follows:
 Gagne’s Nine Events
 Blooms Revised Taxonomy
 ADDIE
 Merrill’s Principles of Instructions

As aspirant teachers, I want you to have an in-depth knowledge of the different

instructional models for you to be able to make use of them appropriately in your future
career as a leader inside the classroom in the process of learning.
P a g e 82 | 189
A. Gagne’s Nine Events of Instructions
Robert Gagne has created Nine Events of Instructions that have been widely used in the
educative process. This Instructional model has focused on providing teachers,
instructors, and facilitators in the academe an organized process efficiently designed to
help maintain efficiency in the teaching-learning process.

Feedback Performance Retention

Figure 1: Gagne’s Nine Events of Instructions

Here is additional information on the Nine Events of Instruction developed by Gagne:

a. Preparation
1. Gain Attention (reception)-this is the part wherein the teacher must get the
attention of the learners and keep them focus while the content of the lesson is
about to be delivered.
2. Inform Learner of Objective (expectancy)- this is to lay down your expectation
and focus on the learning. An announced objective (s) helps learners have an
overview of how their performance will be assessed and the value of the content
in the future.
3. Stimulate Recall of Prior Information (retrieval) – this is based on the schema
theory wherein student’s prior knowledge will be linked and associated with the
newly introduced knowledge.
b. Instruction and Practice
4. Present Information (selective perception)- this is where the new content will be
systematically organized for the learning process to be achieved. One important
matter to be considered is the varied learning style of learners; this differentiated
instruction is highly recommended.
5. Provide Guidance (semantic encoding)-this is where facilitation of the learning
process should be taken into high consideration especially when learners are

P a g e 83 | 189
 drawing in new knowledge and associating it to their prior knowledge to avoid a
negative transfer.
6. Elicit performance (responding)-this can be in the form of individualized or
grouped; output-based or process-based, and outright performance or homework.
7. Provide Feedback (reinforcement)- this is one of the essential parts wherein
learners will be able to understand whether the learning process is a success or
needs to be enhanced or revisit.
c. Assessment and Transfer
8. Assess Performance (retrieval)- this is one of the most anticipated parts of the
student’s performance wherein they were able to know if the expected outcome or
the learning objectives has been met or there is a need for them to expound their
knowledge.
9. Enhance Retention Transfer (generalization)- This is an additional input to allow
learner’s retention of new knowledge. This can be in the form of additional
reinforcement through practices and summarization.

Events of Instruction Techniques

Gaining Attention  Pose thought to provoke questions
(reception)  Present an intriguing problem
 Present meaningful and relevant challenges

 Use multiple delivery methods, a variety of texts, and
graphics as well as approaches.
Provide Guidance  Concept mapping for an association, graphics to
(semantic coding) make visual associations
 Mnemonics to cue and prompt learning; analogies on
knowledge construction
 Case studies for a real-world application
Elicit Performance  Have the learner demonstrate the acquired behavior

student’s control
Assess Performance  Written test, oral questioning, short essays or
(retrieval) questionnaires, etc.
Enhance Retention  Have them summarize the content
Transfer  Have them generate examples
(generalization)  Have them create concept maps

B. Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy

There are six levels of cognitive learning, according to the revised version of
Bloom’s Taxonomy. Each level is conceptually different. The six levels are
remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating.
Using Bloom's Revised Taxonomy in Assessment
These levels can be helpful for the learning outcomes to be categorized most
appropriately according to the level of cognitive needs and demands as well as the ability
of the learner. This, the teacher was able to pattern his/her learning objectives
accordingly. Further, teachers will be able to assess according to his/ her understanding
of the different cognitive levels.

C. ADDIE
The ADDIE model is the generic process traditionally used by instructional
designers and training developers. The five phases—Analysis, Design, Development,
Implementation, and Evaluation—represent a systematized process of instruction wherein
the learning process is established in a framework of the organized flow of knowledge
effective transfer.

D. Merril’s Principles of Instructions

Dr. David Merrill set of fundamental principles of instruction that can lead to
effective, efficient, and engaging instruction. Merrill's purpose was to identify the
prescriptive principles common to various design theories and models.

Integration Activation

PROBLEM

Application Demonstration

Figure 4: Merril’s Principles of Instruction

Purpose of Each Principle

1. Problem-Centered: Learning is promoted when learners are engaged in

solving real-world problems.

2. Activation: The purpose of the activation phase is to create activities that

build on existing knowledge before exposure to new information. Activating
prior knowledge prepares your learners to connect new incoming information
with existing knowledge.

P a g e 88 | 189
 3. Demonstration: The purpose of the demonstration phase is to create activities
that demonstrate your learners the steps and procedures. Demonstrating
knowledge requires the learners to be mentally active, but they are not
participating physically.

4. Application: The purpose of the application phase is to create activities that

give your learners opportunities to apply what they are learning. Application
of new information provides the learner's opportunities to do something, such
as practice a procedure, play a game, answer a question, etc.

5. Integration: The purpose of the integration phase is to create activities that

help your learners select and express what they learned and how they may use
it. Integrating new knowledge helps the learners connect what they are
learning to their work or their lives.

Application

Illustrate the (a) presence and (b) the importance of the different Instructional
models in a classroom setting.

 Closure

Understanding the basic concept of the Instructional Design models is like

finding the blueprint in the teaching-learning process. With it, you, as an aspiring teacher,
will be able to have in-depth knowledge of not just what to teach but how to teach,
exploring endless possibilities and wonderful experience inside the classroom. Thus,
creating an unforgettable holistic teaching-learning experience together with your
excellent students in the near future. In this lesson, along with your grasping the concepts
of the different models, allows you to have a glimpse of who you will be. Good luck,
future teacher!

Abstraction

Enhanced Technology Teaching

Teachers should seek out technology that enhances student learning. Most
students come to our courses with a strong foundation in the use of technology and expert
instructors to incorporate it into their teaching. Some caution is necessary to avoid using
technology merely for effect, without knowing how it will enhance learning. Take the
time to determine which technologies will support and to improve student learning, and

P a g e 91 | 189
learn how to use them.
Fig.1 Specific types of teaching and learning tools

Technology provides numerous tools that teachers can use in and out of the
classroom to enhance student learning. This page provides an introduction to some of the
most common.
1. Blackboard
Teachers might use the course management system
Blackboard. It focuses on online learning delivery but supports a range of uses, acting as
a platform for online content, including courses, both asynchronous based and
synchronous based.
(You can use the short, engaging Blackboard that helps your students get comfortable in
Blackboard. Your students can do training and learning gaps, utilizing analytical data and
reporting and choose which ones they want, or they can view multiple videos in a row
about a particular topic.)

2. Classroom Response Systems ("clickers")

One way to encourage student engagement is by using electronic devices that allow
students to record their answers to multiple-choice questions and will enable you to
display the results instantly. The anonymity encourages participation, and their responses
help the teacher know when further discussion is needed. The use of clickers can also
catalyze discussion.
Clicker systems let you pose a question and have students respond with a device that
looks like a TV remote. Several websites provide an alternative that allows students to
respond with a cell phone or laptop. Schools should encourage faculty to use the web
solution “Poll Everywhere,” but either technology enables many strategies for engaging
students.

P a g e 92 | 189
3. Online Projects and
Collaboration Tools
Technology can support student collaboration on creating new knowledge,
reflecting on what they are learning, or working together to achieve a deeper
understanding of course material. These articles provide ideas about their use and
misuse. Online tools provide many new options. Students can collaborate on projects,
collect and synthesize information, and write for different types of audiences.
Example:
Teaching in the Cloud: Using Online Collaboration Tools to Enhance Student
Engagement (discusses jointly edited Google Docs, Google Sites, wikis, cloud storage of
video projects, crowdsourced research, Google Spreadsheets for data aggregation, Piazza,
and class blogs; also considers issues of IT support, ease of use, and student privacy).

3. Information Visualization Tools

Technology can also clarify and stimulate thought by transforming words into
pictures. There are some tools to help lead your students to think more critically by
encouraging them to structure information visually. Visualization tools can help you
make information clearer to students, either by providing you with clearer visuals or,
better yet, assigning them to use visuals to make connections. Visualization tools can
help you create information clearer to students, either by providing you with clearer
visuals or, better yet, assigning them to use visuals to make connections.
Example: Make Infographics in the Classroom (help your students deepen their
understanding by showing
connections, mapping, creating
timelines, etc.).

P a g e 93 | 189
5. Flipping the Classroom
Sometimes a great way to move them toward higher levels of understanding is to
move the lecture out of the classroom and use the in-person time for interactions that
require applying, synthesizing, and creating. "Flipping" doesn't have to use technology,
but tools such as videos, podcasts, online quizzes, and the like can help in and out of class
activity work together. These resources explain the theory underlying this teaching
method and provide practical suggestions for making it work.

Example:
Flipping the Classroom: Simply Speaking (video gives clear demonstration and

examples).

6. Games
What could be more engaging than a good game, a game may lead to deeper
learning and give some examples of their use in higher education.
Ex. Reacting to the Past (Elaborate games set in the past, in which students are assigned
roles informed by classic texts in the history of ideas).

7. Converting a Face-to-Face Course to an Online Course

P a g e 94 | 189
 Teaching online, whether in a hybrid course or a wholly-online course, requires
different techniques and different tools. Without the F2F contact, professors will need to
be even clearer about setting and articulating expectations for digital work and
participation. Encouraging interaction between professor and student and among
students is an additional challenge, as is monitoring student learning as the course
progresses. The online environment requires the use of basic technologies to digitize
course materials as well as mastery of the university's learning management system. And
various tools like Skype allow synchronous communications, while blogs and Twitter can
encourage asynchronous interaction. Here are some ideas to get you started.
Example:

Synchronous learning is instruction and collaboration in “real time” via the

Internet. It typically involves tools, such as:

 Live chat
 Audio and video conferencing
 Data and application sharing
 Virtual "hand raising"
Asynchronous learning methods use the time-delayed capabilities of the Internet. It
typically involves tools, such as:

 E-mail
 Threaded discussion
 Newsgroups and bulletin boards

Application
Let us test your learnings from the lesson. You will generate ideas to provide a
presentation by using a teaching and learning tool that is available to your local places.
Your teacher will give allotted time to prepare your presentation and will be graded using
the given criteria.

Closure

The implementation of technology in schools helps close that gap. Technology can
enhance relationships between teachers and students. Technology helps
make teaching and learning more meaningful and fun. Students are also able to
collaborate with their classmates through technological applications.

P a g e 95 | 189
 By incorporating technology strategically, educators can enhance the learning
experience and increase student engagement and curiosity. The future of learning lies in
striking the most effective balance between digital and in-person educational experiences.
Good luck, future teacher!

You can now proceed to the next experience of this module.

Conventional or traditional learning refers to a learning method
wherein teachers and students interact face-to-face and is limited to the corners of
the classroom. This type of learning is teacher-centered, meaning the students in a

1. Conventional or non-digital tools or learning/instructional materials are those
materials used in regular and “conventional or traditional” classrooms.

P a g e 98 | 189
 The usual conventional or non-digital tools or learning/instructional materials are
the following: textbooks, charts, flip charts, pictures, posters, atlases, globes, maps,
flashcards, worksheets, blackboards/chalkboards/whiteboards, bulletin boards, science
lab apparatus and materials, models, diorama, dictionaries, encyclopedias, manipulatives,
and others. These learning materials are beneficial and highly accessible to both teachers
and students. They are also very simple, easy, and quick to use/manipulate. However,
today, lessons can be taught and learned more easily by the use of non-conventional or
digital learning tools because they are more engaging, especially to the 21st-century
learners who are mostly audio-visual and digital native learners.

2. Non-conventional or digital tools or learning/instructional materials are those
learning materials that are not commonly used in a traditional classroom. These
materials are also identified as modern teaching tools. These materials include
computers and laptops, calculators, slideshow presentations, e-books, radio,
educational CDs, DVDs, audiotapes, interactive whiteboards/smartboards,
television, mobile phones and tablets, and others.

Since you already know what conventional and non-conventional learning is and
identify what some of the conventional and non-conventional tools are, let us now learn
more about each of the tools.

I. Conventional or non-digital tools

1. Textbooks
Textbooks are a collection of contents and
information in a particular subject and level that are
printed and published. Books are designed to aid both
the students and the teachers in the lessons and topics
of the subject/s.

2. Charts and Flip Charts

P a g e 99 | 189
 Charts and flipcharts are educational visual aids that are usually mounted on the wall
or in its stand. It is a pad of paper fastened together; it includes pictures and
representations based on a specific lesson. The pages are flipped to view the other lessons
or topics.

3. Pictures and Posters

Pictures are visual aids used to teach or present a more

realistic view of the topics. Educational images are usually
used to depict stories, places, events, people, and others. While
posters are visual aids that are used to depict symbols, icons,
and even includes pictures. They are more comprehensive
since captions and labels are present.

4. Atlases, Globes, and Maps

Atlases, globes, and maps are used in

teaching mostly geography-related lessons
because they provide an accurate
visualization of the geographical,
topographical, political, meteorological, and
some other features of the Earth.

5. FlashCards
Flashcards are usually used as an aid in drill
activities in English, Filipino, Math, and Science subjects.
This material has pictures, symbols, math
operations, sentences, and phrases that help in the
development of quick retrieval of information, which
promotes mental ability.

6. Worksheets

Worksheet refers to a printed paper or a set of printed paper with

activities, drills, and questions for the student to complete and answer. They
are used by the teachers to determine the students’ previous knowledge,
outcomes, and process of learning.

7. Blackboards/Chalkboards/Whiteboards

P a g e 100 | 189
 These are boards that are usually made from wood, sophisticated plastic,
fiber and even glass. These boards are usually used by the teachers to write and
draw examples from the lesson that the students must write. These boards are also
used in drills such as board works in math and spelling drills in English and
Filipino. Almost all classrooms have these kinds of boards.

8. Bulletin Boards

Bulletin boards are boards with

designs and artistic materials. They are
used in giving up-to-date information,
announcements, posting of public
information, display of students' works
and lessons, and more. It is usually
wall-mounted and placed strategically
for everybody to see it.

9. Dictionaries, Encyclopaedias, and Thesaurus

These are comprehensive reference books used by teachers

and students to find the meaning of any word and or idea. They
contain a collection of facts, knowledge, and other essential data.

10. Manipulatives

Manipulatives are various objects that

help the students to manipulate and play. These
objects are usually helpful in math and logic. It
helps the students to understand the concepts
through actual manipulation.

11. Science Lab Apparatus and Materials

Science laboratory apparatus and materials are
used inside the laboratory with caution to exercise
safety. These materials are used to demonstrate

P a g e 101 | 189
 science activities and perform experiments. These are very useful since
they enforce motivation and curiosity in science.

12. Models
Models are three-dimensional representation or replicas of the
actual/real things being taught. It may be smaller, more significant, or
even the same size as the exact thing. Models are used in teaching
since they simulate first-hand experience/s. They can be viewed,
examined, and manipulated by both the learners and the students.

13. Diorama

Dioramas are realistic scenic displays usually used

in exhibits. Dioramas include three-dimensional characters
such as people and animals and things such as buildings,
equipment, vehicles, and others placed in a three-
dimensional ground with flat, scenic background. Some
examples are jungle scene, cityscapes, under the ocean,
farms, and others.

II. Non-conventional or digital tools

1. Computers and Laptops

Computers and laptops are used in education as a tool

for storing data, accessing and processing information using
engines and applications. Students and teachers can also
access the World Wide Web using these devices and can
connect to projectors to project presentations.

2. Slideshow Presentation

Slideshow presentations using projectors

are used in education to project slideshow

P a g e 102 | 189
presentations, videos, clips, and more. The use of applications can access this. It is
beneficial to the teachers and students since it aids in learning by the projection of quality
videos of the lessons that are difficult to explain.

3. E-Books
E-books are an electronic copy of published
books. E-books are present in applications or
downloadable materials that can be accessed using
devices like tablets, laptops, mobile phones, etc.

4. Radio

Radios and Televisions are electronic devices that air or broadcast

programs, news, and music. Radios and televisions are used in education as
a venue to air or broadcast educational programs and lesson when the places
are not reachable, they lack teachers, and if the area or country is
experiencing a calamity or emergency as distance learning
must be practiced.

5. Educational CDs, DVDs, and Audiotapes

CDs, DVDs, and Audiotapes

are digital storage of video or audio
lessons. They contain music,
speeches, drama, stories, poetry, pre-
recorded lessons, and others.

6. Mobile Phones and Tablets

P a g e 103 | 189
 Mobile phones and tablets are handheld devices that are very useful in learning.
These devices can be used to access the internet, almost all applications, even e-books
and can be used as a calculator, map, converter, etc.

7. Interactive Whiteboards/Smart
Boards
Smart boards or interactive boards are
used by some school in the world. They are
large screen that is mounted on the wall.
These boards can access the internet and
can project videos, pictures, and others.
These boards are very promising since it
motivates the learners because of its
interactive nature.

Abstraction
Distance learning is also known as remote learning, is a form of education
wherein there is little or no face-to-face learning or what we call residential
P a g e 107 | 189
learning between the students and their teachers. Distance learning can be done
anywhere, usually at home.
There are a lot of reasons why people choose or practice distance or
remote learning. Here are some of the examples:

 Borderless learning. Students can

enroll in programs being offered online
by schools abroad.

 Flexible schedule. Students can choose

to enroll in courses that fit their
timetable.

 Learners can save. Because you can

learn from your own home, you can
save from transportation fees, allowances, and even books and other resources.

 Self-paced learning. Learners can accomplish their modules/tasks at a convenient

time, pace, and whenever they are ready without being forced.
 Numerous programs and course offerings. There are a lot of programs and courses
being offered by schools for distance learners. They have the same standards and
quality as on-site learning.

 Increase employability. Since most of the schools that offer distance learning are
well-known and provides quality education, earning certificates from the courses or
programs finished by these institutions will give an advantage to your curriculum
vitae and increase your chance to be employed.
 Back up during calamities and emergencies. Due to natural calamities and or
health emergencies, learning institutions resort to distance learning to continue the
education of the students when face-to-face or residential learning cannot be
practiced.

Disadvantages of Distance Learning

 High chances of distraction. Students most likely to be distracted during distance

learning since most of their homes are not suitable or conducive for learning. Losing
P a g e 108 | 189
 focus and losing track of deadlines is also a big problem since there are no teachers or
students at their side to remind and motivate them.
 Hidden costs. Even if courses and programs offered in distance learning by schools
are much cheaper than residential learning, there are some hidden costs involved. For
example, buying gadgets, installing computers or internet routers, paying electricity
bills, and others.
 Access to technology. Since most of the platforms in distance education require
gadgets and digital tools, some students cannot access them due to the lack of these
said gadgets. Students coming from the low-income sectors of the community don’t
have any access to devices needed for this type of learning.
 Compromised quality. Since distance education promotes self-paced learning, the
quality of education can be compromised since individual students cannot exhibit
some of the outcomes of the lessons. Some needed to be collaborative, and some
required actual laboratory experience, and some needed the supervision of the
instructors
 Problems on the network. Some areas have limited source of internet connection or
network service. Since some of the activities in distance learning need to be done
online, the difficulty will arise when there is no sufficient network signal or internet
connection.
 Production of materials and resources. Learning institutions must prepare materials
to be used in distance learning. Problems will arise if there is an emergency or a
calamity wherein materials are not developed due to the nature of unpreparedness on
the given situations.

Types of Distance Learning Modes

I. Synchronous Learning –instructor-facilitated
learning that requires all the participants to be
virtually present at the same time. Tests and other
assessments are scheduled and timed. Learning
using this modality can be conducted using:
a. Virtual classrooms – is an online
environment wherein students and teachers can communicate, interact, view
and present lessons and discussions, and actively engage with the learning
resources available while teaming up or doing the tasks individually all in just
one setting.
b. Web conferencing – is a service available online wherein teachers and
students can conduct classes, conferences, meetings, training, and other
activities virtually.
c. Educational televisions and radios – These are technologies that air and
broadcast programs, lessons, and other educational stints to the general
public. This is widely used in places that are experiencing calamities and
emergencies such as volcanic eruptions and disease outbreaks.
d. Learning Management Systems (LMSs) – are online software applications
used to deliver course materials, educational training, program development,
and others.

P a g e 109 | 189
II. Asynchronous Learning – self-directed and self-
paced learning mode that does not require students
to be virtually present. Learning using this modality
can be conducted using:
a. Modules – just like this material that you
are using, modules are developed to help
learners access education during distance
learning without having the trouble to
access the internet and buy gadgets. Modules include comprehensive lessons
and activities that help achieve learning outcomes even if done using self-
paced learning.
b. Web-based courses – are uploaded courses and lessons on the internet. They
can be accessed from the different programs or course offerings of learning
institutions. Some of them are required to pay to be enrolled, while some are
free.
c. Video and audiotapes – These materials are pre-recorded copies of
instructors giving discussions and presentations. This is useful to learners
who have access to gadgets but don’t have the freedom of time to join the
scheduled meeting or don’t have any sufficient access to the internet.

Abstraction

In teaching, it is vital to consider the relevance and appropriateness of using

technology in teaching and learning. If we employ well-planned instructional strategies
with relevant and appropriate technology and media, we prepare our students for 21 st-
century careers (Smaldino et al. 2014). Utilizing appropriate technology in the teaching
and learning process is indispensable for us teachers. What works for one does not
necessarily work for all. We need the right tool for the right job.
When talking about utilizing technology appropriately, we are not only talking
about how to use technology appropriately but also, and we are talking about
Instructional Technology. Instructional Technologies includes the instructional design
process, which provides for analysis, design, development, evaluation, and
implementation of instructional systems and other learning environments
(https://uncw.edu/ed/mit/faq.html). It also includes the proper selection of instructional
materials. Instructional material should constitute the appropriate utilization of
technology.
But what is an instructional material? It is a device that aids the teacher in the
teaching-learning process. They do not replace the teacher but aids the teacher. It can be
traditional resources (e.g., textbook, workbooks, etc.), graphic organizers (e.g., graphs,
charts, tables, etc.), teacher-made resources (e.g., handouts, worksheets, etc.), and other
forms of instructional material (e.g., audio, audio-visual, electronic interactive, etc.).
Since instructional material is indispensable for teachers, we need to select carefully.

P a g e 114 | 189
 What are the things that we need to consider in
selecting instructional material based on
appropriateness and feasibility?

1. The principle of appropriateness –

- Does it meet the standards (general and
specific goals of the subject)?
- Is it appropriate to the intended level?

2. The principle of 3. The principle of cost

authenticity – (economy)
- Is the material - Can the students

dependable?

4. The principle of interest 5. The principle of

- Does the material catch the organization and balance
interest of the learners? - Is it well organized and
- Does the material stimulate balanced?
students’ curiosity? - Is the purpose clearly

MODULE SUMMARY
The key concepts covered in this lesson are:
 Literacy in the 21st Century is more than just reading and writing. It is about
thinking and understanding. Students should develop a mix of skills with a
specific emphasis on IT skills, knowledge management skills, and critical
thinking skills. Successful teaching takes an integrated approach in 21st-century
literacies, helping students understand how to access, analyze, synthesize, and
respond to knowledge.

 Gaining multiple literacies is a must in this fast-changing world. As new

knowledge unfolds, adaptability and innovation is a must. To be well-adjusted
requires an in-depth understanding of essential concepts such as different
instructional design models, which are beneficial to instructors, facilitators,
educators, and more. Instructional design models are systematic processes crafted
by seasoned experts on the field of instructions, which has created a blueprint of
an organized and tried and tested pattern of the transference of content and
knowledge to the learners of the different fields.

 Teaching becomes rewarding when students can demonstrate the skills and
outcomes expected of them. Students learn and enhance their skills with the help
of ICT tools in education. Type of learning also affects the experiences of the
students in the classroom. It was presented that we have conventional learning
wherein learning is constricted in the traditional classroom façade, and non-
conventional learning is not constricted and can be practiced anywhere. Materials
or tools of the two types of learning were also identified to help us become
equipped as teachers.

P a g e 120 | 189
  The importance of distance learning was also emphasized together with its
advantages and disadvantages. Distance learning can be done with the help of
available platforms. Some are LMS, web conferencing, web-based lectures, and
others.

 Always remember that in using technology in teaching and learning, it is essential

to consider the relevance and appropriateness.

 Instructional material is a device that aids the teacher in the teaching-learning

process.

 Instructional Technologies includes the instructional design process, which

provides for analysis, design, development, evaluation, and implementation of
instructional systems and other learning environments.

 In selecting instructional material, we need to consider the (1) principle of

appropriateness, (2) principle of authenticity, (3) principle of cost, (4) principle of
interest, and (5) principle of organization and balance.

Introduction

Welcome to the first lesson in Module 5. This lesson introduces ICT and the
Assessment of Learning. Assessment, teaching, and learning are all connected. When we
talk about teaching and learning, we cannot get away with an evaluation. When you plan
and conceptualize your teaching, you also need to plan on how to evaluate the learning of
your students. The assessment gives the teacher valuable information on how much the
students have learned so that the teacher can improve his/her teaching approach. Lesson 1
provides you with a better understanding of assessment and how you can integrate
technology in assessment. So, let’s buckle up and enjoy the lesson!

Abstraction
What is an assessment? According to Bilbao, P. et al. (2019), assessment is
the process of identifying, gathering and interpreting information about students’
learning. Why do we need to assess our students? We evaluate to collect data from them
P a g e 128 | 189
about the status of their learning and then we make improvements to our teaching based
on that information.
Types of Assessment:
1. Formative Assessment
 It is done during the instructional process, while learning is ongoing.
 It provides feedback while learning is ongoing.
 The most typical example for this is impromptu quizzes

2. Summative Assessment
 It provides feedback at the end of the grading period.
 It is done after the learning is completed.
 It aims to measure a student’s academic achievement and learning.

3. Diagnostic Assessment
 It aims to evaluate students’ strengths and weaknesses on the subject.
 It is given before the instruction occurs.
 It helps the teacher how to plan on what to teach and how to teach.

4. Authentic assessment
 It describes the different forms of assessment (activities) that teachers employ
to reflect student learning, achievement, motivation, and attitudes on
classroom activities (Bilbao, P. et al 2019).
 It usually involves tasks that the students need to perform and is rated with
rubrics.

The Role of ICT in Assessment in Learning

Some teachers are hesitant to integrate technology in assessment of learning.
Technology plays a very important role in assessment. Today, technology offers many
tools and applications that can be used in assessment to be more efficient and effective.
See the diagram below to understand the role of technology in assessment.

The Role of ICT in Assessment

- constructing assessment tasks

- delivering the task to relevant

Digital Devices Assist the students
e.g. Laptops, teacher in P a g e 129 | 189
smartphones, assessment
computers, etc. - recording and providing

Current Trends in Assessment in Learning
Traditional objective tests like multiple-choice and other paper-pencil tests
received a great deal of criticism from the experts. Although they have some flaws, they
are still widely used by teachers. However, recent trends in the assessment are expanding.
The 21st-century assessment includes (Bilbao, P. et al. 2019):
1. Utilizing multiple measures in the assessment
2. Increasing the use of technology
3. Focus on the progress and development of the learner
4. Differentiating the roles and responsibilities of the teachers, administrators, and
another stakeholder

Application
Read and answer the following questions.

1. During class discussion, Teacher A observed that her students are having a hard
time understanding the lesson, but when she asked them, they would say that they
understood the lesson. What should she do to confirm if the students understand
the lesson and which part of the lesson they don’t understand? Why do you say
so?

Abstraction

What is the assessment tool?

P a g e 132 | 189
 Assessment methods and tools are the strategies, techniques, tools, and
instruments that the teachers used to collect information to determine if students have
attained the desired learning outcomes and in the process, teachers select tools for
assessment. However, in selecting appropriate assessment tools, it involves a process.
You may consider the following characteristics in choosing an appropriate assessment
tool, whether conventional or ICT-based assessment (Bilbao, P. et al. 2019):

1. Measure the desired level of performance – (What level of proficiency and

efficiency considered satisfactory from the student’s performance?)
2. Cost-effective in terms of effort, time and money – (Is the tool feasible in terms
of effort, time, and money?)
3. Useful that will produce results that provide information that can be used in
making decisions to improve student learning – (Does the tool able to provide
sufficient information in making decisions in enhancing student learning?)
4. Reasonably accurate and truthful – (Is the tool accurate and true?)
5. Dependable, consistent responses over time – (Is the tool dependable and
consistent in its information?)
6. Evidence of being on-going, not once and done

There are tools that we can use to evaluate certain assessment tools. They are used
to determine and scores the assessment tool. These tools are (Bilbao, P. et al. 2019).

1. Rubrics – they are sets of criteria used to determine the scoring of assignment,
performance, and products from the students. It lets the students know what is
expected of them to do before the activity starts. They are instrumental in rating
research papers, projects, speeches, etc. but they cannot be used in grading
multiple-choice tests. There are two (2) types of rubrics:

a. Analytic rubric – this rubric describes each criterion separately from

different criteria.

b. Holistic rubric - it uses one scale that applies to all criteria which gives the
overall score of the entire performance as a whole.

How to Create a Rubric

The steps on how to create Rubrics (https://health.usf.edu):

1.1 Record the performance objective
1.2 Identify the dimensions/tasks comprising the performance (e.g., Speech
mastery, voice quality, delivery, audience contact, etc.)
1.3 Identify the potential gradations of quality (e.g., poor, average, excellent)

P a g e 133 | 189
 1.4 Assign a point value to each gradation, and a total point value for the
assessment (e.g., 3 points for excellent, 2 points for average, 1 point for
poor, etc.)
1.5 Identify the criteria for each level of quality within a dimension/task (e.g.,
for excellent - The speech was delivered in a sophisticated manner; for
average - the speech was delivered fairly effective, etc.)
1.6 Create the rubric table

2. Electronic Portfolio – is a collection of student’s product in an electronic format

which was uploaded on the internet and is managed by the student as a user.
There are three major types of e-portfolio, according to Eportfolio Resource
Center - United States Department of Education:

a. Developmental ePortfolio – (also called learning portfolios, reflection

portfolios, formative portfolios, working portfolios) it is a self-reflection
and self-assessment; focuses on the process and emphasizes reflection

b. Showcase ePortfolio – (also called professional portfolios, formal

portfolios, presentation portfolios, representational portfolios, career or
employment portfolios) it showcases skills, experience, and achievement;
portfolio as a product rather than process

c. Assessment ePortfolio – it documents what the students have learned; used

for both formative and summative assessment

Application

A. You surely have experienced making a portfolio before. Portfolio and

ePortfolio are pretty much the same; in essence, they just mainly differ in the
platform. Now, let’s try to answer the questions below:
What are the advantages of ePortfolio? What are the technological tools that we can
use in making the ePortfolio? What is the evidence to show student learning in
ePortfolio?

Answer the questions by filling out the table below:

Activity

P a g e 136 | 189
 Thought bubble. Why do you think technology is essential in education?

Analysis

 Does technology play a significant role in learning?

 What are some of the technologies used in your classes before that you find
useful?
 Is the innovation of technologies relevant to education?
 As a future teacher, would you apply the use and integration of technology in
your future classes?

Abstraction
Teaching in a modern classroom is a big challenge. Gone are the days that
teachers are the only source of knowledge and information in the classroom. Teaching in
the 21st century is both a challenge and ease. But what is the integration of technology
in education?
Technology integration in education is the incorporation of present
technologies as an aid in the teaching-learning process. Technology can be
integrated into our lessons to promote learning, motivation, collaboration, critical
thinking, communication, and others.

Why is it essential to integrate technology into education?

P a g e 137 | 189
 According to the National Education Association (NEA), teachers in the
st
21 century integrate technology in their classrooms to have their students gain
and enhance these four skills, also known as fours C's.

 Creativity.
 Critical thinking.
 Communication.
 Collaboration.
Here are some of the innovative technologies used in education:
1. Virtual Reality (VR) –
VRs are used to simulate virtual and or
augmented realities. It promotes motivation in
learning since students can explore in different
environments and conduct experiments freely
utilizing this technology. VRs are used mainly
in sciences, engineering, mathematics, and
others.

2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) –

AIs are commonly used in schools that
incorporate robotics in their curriculum. AIs can
perform assistant functions such as Siri, Alexa,
Google Assistant, and others. They help in
assisting students in searching for information,
deliver support services, aid in data processing,
and many more.

3. Cloud Computing –
Cloud computing is a storage system
that helps teachers and students in accessing
their files, uploading works, access other
devices, and control remotely other
machines in the presence of the internet. It
has no limit in storage and can be accessed
anytime, as long as there is a connection.

4. 3D Printing –

P a g e 138 | 189
 It is a modern technology used in schools to create 3D models of
something by printing it. It can be historical artifacts in history class, DNA strand
in biology, 3D manipulatives in math, and other useful models to aid in teaching
and learning.

5. Biometrics –

Biometrics is used nowadays in schools

to record students' attendance for safety. Once
the students are in the school and access their
attendance in biometrics, a message will be
sent to the parents giving them notice.
Teachers also use these data to monitor
attendance in classes.

teacher shows some examples of singular and plural nouns with PowerPoint
presentations. The students will be placed into groups where they will view and listen to
the clip. They will then be asked to identify the singular and plural nouns found in the
grocery shop that they know. The clip will be used to introduce the topic. Students will
then discuss the nouns, and the teacher will write them on the whiteboard. Students will
then be given a worksheet to complete. Students will change the singular to plural nouns
in groups. The teacher will then call on different groups to give their answers. The
teacher will indicate which answers are correct.

Require Learner Participation

Students will be placed into groups to complete the worksheet. Students will
discuss amongst themselves the changes of singular to plural nouns. Each group will have
a group leader who will answer when the teacher calls on the group.

Evaluate and Revise

Students will be asked to come to the board and make the singular nouns into
plural. The students are the leaders of each group. The correct answer will be given a
reward.

MODULE SUMMARY
Congratulations on completing the module about the Innovative Technologies for
Teaching-Learning and Assessment Task. The key concepts covered in this module are:
 Assessment is the process of identifying, gathering and interpreting information
about students’ learning.
 There are four types of assessment which are: (1) Formative assessment - which is
done during the instructional process while learning is ongoing; (2) Summative
assessment - which is done after the learning is completed; (3) Diagnostic
assessment – which is given before the instruction occurs; and (4) Authentic
assessment – which usually involves tasks that the students need to perform.
 The role of ICT in assessment is to assist the teacher in constructing assessment
tasks, delivering the task to relevant students, recording and providing feedback to
students, and in computing and giving grades to students.
 Teachers need to employ the current trends in assessment in learning. You should
not be contented in a traditional objective test. Instead, you should explore and
utilize 21st-century evaluation in teaching.
 Assessment methods and tools are the strategies, techniques, tools, and
instruments that the teachers used to collect information to determine if students
have attained the desired learning outcomes.
 Rubrics are sets of criteria used to determine the scoring of assignment,
performance, and products from the students.
P a g e 144 | 189
  There are two types of rubrics which are: (1) Analytic Rubric - in which it
describes each criterion separately from different criteria; and (2) Holistic Rubric
– in which it uses one scale that applies to all criteria of the entire performance.
 Eportfolio is a collection of student’s product in an electronic format which was
uploaded on the internet.
 There are three major types of e-portfolio: (1) Developmental ePortfolio - also
called learning ePortfolio; (2) Showcase ePortfolio - also called employment
ePortfolio; and (3) Assessment ePortfolio - used for formative and summative
assessment.

How do you describe a good citizen? How do you define a good digital citizen? Is there
much difference between the two? Take a look at the infographic below and find the
answers for yourself.

CITIZENSHIP IN THE DIGITAL AGE

A good citizen… An excellent digital citizen…

internet access at home.
2. Treats others with respect. Seeks to understand all perspectives.

information with social networks.
7. Protects self and others from harm. It is mindful of physical, emotional, and mental health while

and 52% like to help their friends learn.
9. Projects a positive self-image at all Understands the permanence of the digital world and
times. proactively manages the digital identity.
33% of all college students digital footprints and
47% of students say they do everything they can to
protect their digital identity.

As you can see, the infographic says it all. A global citizen understands the
interrelatedness of everything to everything else (https://urlshort.host/Ltp1d). With that
note, a global citizen is one who sees the world as a community, possesses the ability to
comprehend actions that contribute to the value of the world as a whole and one who is
concerned about how one could participate and contribute for the benefit of the whole
world while a digital citizen is an individual who adheres to the guidelines related to the

P a g e 150 | 189
ethical and responsible use of technology. That person also knows how to act responsibly
in all relationships and interactions in the digital world (Debroy, 2019).

Thus, when both the attributes of a global citizen and a digital citizen are mixed,
the identity of a global digital citizen is justified in totality. Hence, a global digital
citizen is an empowered individual who is dutifully aware of his/her responsibility both
for the power of the Internet and for the lasting well-being of our global community
(Watanabe-Crocket, 2017).

The 5 Tenets of Global Digital Citizenship (Watanabe-Crocket, 2017)

1. Personal Responsibility:
This has something to do
with how one behaves in
matters as ethical and
moral considerations,
finance, interpersonal
relationships and personal
health and fitness – both
in virtual and physical
communities.

2. Global Citizenship: This

is about recognizing and
respecting diversity in
terms of appreciation of many concerns, cultures, religions, traditions, and values
of their fellow global citizens.

3. Digital Citizenship: It centers on safe and respectful behavior in any online

environment by fixing a correct program of digital ethics and best practices for
all.
Also, it is more of eliciting respect and responsibility for yourself, for others, and
a property of every definition.

4. Altruistic Service: This means a concern for the well-being of the people with
whom we share our world, and a desire to serve others by acting out of
compassion and recognizing that interconnectedness to others is vital.

5. Environmental Stewardship: This is all about the demonstration of common-

sense values and of an appreciation for the beauty and majesty that surrounds us
every day, that after all, we only have one world to live in, and it is our
responsibility to preserve it for future generations as global citizens.

As his/her hallmark, global digital citizens must: (Watanabe-Crocket, 2017).

 Always be virtuous and act with integrity in all digital and non-digital
communications and interactions.
P a g e 151 | 189
  Always communicate using the appropriate language.
 Choose and uphold their social responsibilities.
 Being responsible for any online activity and accountable for his/her digital
footprint.
 Being dutiful to judge what is appropriate and ethical behavior within the
laws of the land.

Exploring the Nine Elements of Digital Citizenship

We are in a world where digital resources are everywhere. This is a reason that
giving importance to technology in education extends to all aspects of a student’s life.
The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) outlines nine elements of
digital citizenship to help students navigate online resources: (https://bit.ly/3jaNwDE)
1. Digital Access. With the use of technology, you can facilitate helping other
students from disadvantaged communities and teach them how to find valuable
and safe information on the Internet.

2. Digital Etiquette. This is concerning considering every digital user with respect
and avoiding inappropriate conduct and demonstrating the essential virtual
manner, which is being aware of the outcome of cyberbullying.

3. Digital Commerce. This refers to selling and buying in the digital market
dutifully. This is also to facilitate how students learn to be better consumers or
consider career paths related to digital sales.

4. Digital Rights and Responsibilities. It is just like freedom of speech that all
students have as a privilege while using the internet and making sure that these
rights remain available for everyone by treating other users fairly and respecting
their privacy.

5. Digital Literacy. This refers to teaching Internet skills in class to help bridge
gaps in digital literacy, and by doing so, students will display the ability to learn
how to use technology and access information online.

6. Digital Law. This encompasses guidelines, policies, and rules set by an

organization for using the Internet, such as preventing plagiarism and putting
phones away in class.

7. Digital Communication. This has something to do with the importance of

teaching students to communicate safely and effectively online - text, email, social
media, and online games.

8. Digital Health and Wellness. These are proper practices in the use of the
Internet – sitting correctly and avoiding too much screen time to make students
protect their psychological and physical well-being.
P a g e 152 | 189
 9. Digital Security. This is to ensure Internet safety lessons for children, which
could include anything from why privacy online is important to what to do if they
encounter a cyberbully and the need to know how to avoid viruses, scams, or
strangers online.

Application
Explore the virtual world and experience what it is to be a digital citizen. Log
in to your social media site and survey as to how many of your friends are observing or
not observing digital citizenship responsibly. Share your observations with your
classmates in your group FB page.

Closure

Intellectual Property Rights
Intellectual property rights refer to the exclusive rights of the creator over the use
of his/her creation for a specified period (https://urlshort.host/5ickH).
The World Trade Organization (WTO) customarily divides intellectual property
rights into two main areas:
1) Copyright and rights related to copyright. For a minimum period of 50 years
after the death of the author, the rights of literary and artistic works (such as
books and other writings, computer programs, films, musical compositions,
paintings, and sculptures) are protected by copyright.

This aims to encourage and reward

creative work.
Under this, the rights of the performers
– actors, singers and musicians,
producers of sound recordings, and
broadcasting organizations are also
being protected.
https://urlshort.
host/iGNcN P a g e 156 | 189
 2) Industrial property. This can usefully be divided into two main areas:

a. One is about the protection of unique signs: 1) trademarks, and 2)

geographical indications. The first is to differentiate one undertaking from
other undertakings. In contrast, the second one gives attribution to the good
as coming from a place and indicating characteristics necessarily that of the
geographical origin.
b. Another one is primarily protected from inspiring design, creation, and
innovation. This is about the protected patents for fall inventions, industrial
designs, and trade secrets.

Copyright Infringement
Aside from a violation of someone’s intellectual property (IP), copyright
infringement is piracy or the theft of someone’s original creation
(https://urlshort.host/iGNcN).
The use of Internet materials without proper
citation is not exempted from copyright
infringement. It is a fact that the Internet has become
the foremost medium to gather information for any
purpose and plagiarism has become common, with
its increasing popularity. People think that just
because the information is available for free, it can
be copied. However, this is not true. In the same way
that books have copyright, materials published on the Internet are also protected by
specific copyright laws, which prohibit the readers or whoever accesses the Internet from
plagiarizing the content (https://urlshort.host/mm6Nc).
Below are the guidelines on online use of copyrighted materials: (Smaldino,
Lowther and Russel, 2012 in Bilbao et al., 2019)
1. Contrary to popular opinion, all materials on the Internet are copyrighted unless
stated otherwise. It is copyrighted even if it does not display the copyright
symbol.
2. Copyright laws cover an email. For its originality, one cannot just use it or share
it. Hence it is recommended that you should not forward any email without
permission, in consideration of both the copyright and Privacy Act.
3. Making copies of articles from a newspaper’s website and distributing them to
your students before the class discussion on the topic is permissible following the
current photocopying guidelines, which permit making multiple copies for

P a g e 157 | 189
 classroom use. However, individually bylined and copyrighted articles cannot be
copied legally for class distribution (adapted from Becker 2003).
4. You cannot post students’ essays, poems, or other works on the school website
unless you have permission from the students and their parents or guardian.
5. Educators should treat copyrighted materials from the Internet the same way as
they do to print formats/ the best guideline is always to obtain permission. When
in doubt, ask!

Copyright Infringement vs. Plagiarism

Earlier, we talked about plagiarism. Take note that plagiarism and copyright
infringement are related ideas; however, these two are different. Plagiarism is an act of
fraud, involving both stealing someone else’s work and lying about it afterward.
Bilbao et al. (2019) cited the following as plagiarism as detailed by Plagiarism.org:
1. Making someone else’s work as your own
2. Using ideas from someone else without giving credit
3. Failure to put a quotation in quotation marks
4. Citing incorrect information about the source of a quotation
5. Altering words but retaining the sentence structure of a source without
giving credit
6. Using so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority
of your work, whether you give credit or not (“fair use” rules)

On the other hand, for images, videos, and music, the following fall under
plagiarism:
1. Using media (especially images) from other websites to paste them into
your papers or websites
2. Creating a video using footage from others’ videos or using copyrighted
music as part of the soundtrack
3. Playing another person’s copyrighted music into a performance (i.e.,
playing a cover)
4. Creating a piece of music that borrows heavily from another composition

These are forms of plagiarism. How do we relate them with copyright

infringement? Plagiarism is a failure in citing the source, while copyright infringement is
a failure to obtain permission. In other words, copyright infringement in violation of the
rights of the copyright holder. Take note also that not all authors have the copyright for
their article. There are cases that the publisher is the one holding the copyright. To sum it
all, copyright infringement is a legal violation, while plagiarism is an ethical violation
(Bilbao et al., 2019).

Application
Take the following exercises step-by-step:
Step 1. Get one of your previous writing projects with a lot of internet materials. Go over
them and reflect on how many of those materials you have failed to give proper
attribution.
Step 2. Think about how you would feel if someone else does the same thing as you did
to your own published internet material.
Step 3. Now write your reflection following the guide questions.

Time Frame 3 days

Introduction
Welcome to Lesson 3! This is quite timely, especially in your engagement in the
web as a global digital citizen – being so, you are also a netizen with expected proper
netiquette. Isn’t that exciting!
Activity
Read this case below and analyze the side of both parties. After that,
proceed far below and do some creative activity.

P a g e 160 | 189
 The case involved two students from a certain school whose photos were posted
on Facebook. The photos, which were uploaded by one of their friends, showed the
students drinking and smoking in a bar, and wearing just undergarments on a street.
The photos were shown by one of the Facebook friends of the girls to the school
officials prompting them to ban the students from marching in their graduation rites.
According to the school, the students violated the school code of conduct.
The parents of the students in defense filed a petition for the issuance of a writ of
habeas data and asked the court to order the school to surrender and deposit all soft
copies of the photographs, and to declare they have been illegally obtained in violation
of the children’s right to privacy.
(Bilbao, et al. (2019). Technology for Teaching and Learning 1, p. 187.)

Create an editorial cartoon out of the case of Facebook privacy. Without texts,
show your stand on the issue using a graphical illustration. It doesn’t matter what level is
your artistic competency. Just follow the guide questions: 1) To what image do you
compare Facebook privacy? What message do you want to convey in your image of
Facebook privacy?

You may opt to do one of the following:

1. If you are connected online, You
can post your editorial cartoon on
your ePortfolio.
2. If you cannot do number 1, post
your output in your group FB page.
See also the posts of your
classmates and comment on their
ideas constructively.
3. If the first and second may not work
for you, compile the output that you
have made as evidence of your
activity just in case you may be

 asked to submit a regular portfolio at the end of this course.

Analysis

The court dismissed the parent’s petition and ruled that, “The school did not violate the
minors’ privacy rights. “According to the court, the school cannot be faulted for being
“steadfast in its duty of teaching its students to be responsible in their dealings and activities
in cyberspace, particularly in [social networks], when it enforced the disciplinary actions
specified in the Student handbook, absent a showing that, in the process, it violated the
students’ rights.”
The decision of the court stated that the students cannot invoke the protection attached to the
right to informational privacy because the photos were seen by other student of the school,
who in turn showed them to the computer teacher who reported the incident to the school
authorities. In the language of the court – “The photos, having been uploaded on Facebook
without restrictions as to who may view them, lost their privacy in some way.” The court
further added in its ruling that setting their post privacy to ‘Friends Only’ is not an assurance
that it can no longer be viewed by another user who is not Facebook friends with the source
of the content. The decision read that, “Without proof that they placed the photographs
subject of this case within the ambit of their protected zone of privacy with respect to the
photographs in question.
The decision of the court puts the burden of ensuring safeguarding privacy online users and
expects them to exercise due diligence in their online dealings and activities. According to the
court, not discounting the role of schools and parents in disciplining and educating their
children to be good digital citizens, self-regulation is the “best means of avoiding privacy
rights violations.” It further issued a ruling saying that nothing is ever private on Facebook,
even those tagged as private never really escape public viewing, including unintended
audiences.

This is the decision of the Supreme Court on the case cited earlier:
(Bilbao, et al. (2019). Technology for Teaching and Learning 1, p. 188.)

The case cited here calls for internalization of social media education and etiquette
among online users. The bottom line of this case is to pay attention to the call for
responsible use of social media – that is, for the inclusion of social media etiquette in the
curriculum or integration in good manners and right conduct… all social media can attain
many things in terms of social good (Brutas, 2015 in Bilbao et al., 2019).

Abstraction

The things you put online can stay

there forever and might be the first
thing people notice about you. A bit
like a tattoo?
(https://urlshort.host/2u9U4)

With every new feature you add to

your profile, you’re adding to a digital
tattoo. We’ve all got one and people that
know you, and people who don’t, can see it and learn a lot from it. What does yours say
about you?
ThinkUKnow.co.uk outlines five things to ask before you post:
1. What do I look like? Always remember that the way you look like in what you
share and your intention for sharing it is not always perceived the way you
originally intended it to be. People can still get you wrong. How you look like
may not always be the way others see it. So, be careful.
2. Is this ink permanent? Anything you share online is beyond your control. Even if
you delete it, still, you can never tell how many have copied or downloaded it and
how many are sharing it. It is always easy for other people to share what you
have posted without you knowing it.

3. Am I giving away too much? Keep your identity as private as you could. Don’t
reveal too much of your personal information. It might be used to put you down.

4. Would I want this shared about me? Think twice before you share something
that involves other people. Always ask permission from them if you're going to
share, say, for example, a funny picture with them. You might not know how they
feel when rude comments are getting in.

5. Does it pass the Billboard Test? Think twice before sharing something online.
Reflect: whether you would be happy to see it on a billboard – where the rest of
your family, school, and community could see it.

P a g e 163 | 189
Every day, whether we want to or not, most of us contribute to a growing portrait of who
we are online, a portrait that is probably more public than most of us assume. So no
matter what you do online, you must know what kind of trails – digital footprints you're
leaving and what the possible effects can be (https://urlshort.host/eWAj5).
You are making a picture of who you are out of your digital footprints. Make sure it’s
accurate. To facilitate this, Internet Society has these tips:
1. Learn The Basics: What’s A Digital Footprint? All the stuff you leave behind
as you use the Internet – your app use, comments, email records, posts, and Skype
calls, are parts of your online history – your digital footprints.

Know Why Should You Manage Your Digital Footprint. You must understand
what you’re leaving behind when you visit a website because the web is listening
every time you use it! So, make no mistake about it.

2. Watch Online Tutorials. To safeguard your online identity, there are online
tutorials that can best help you not only to learn your digital footprints but also to
help you make the right choices. Just click https://urlshort.host/eWAj5.

Know Your Manners When Using Technology

The poor netiquette can stick around to disturb you much longer if not forever
because the rulebooks of etiquette are just as vital in cyberspace as they are in the real
world.
Hartney (2020) suggested ten basic rules of netiquette to avoid damaging your
online and offline relationships.
1. Make Real People a Priority. The most irritating situation is when during your
conversation, one is so hooked up in his/her gadgets. Remember the rule in the
face to face communication that we have to look at people we are communicating
with. If you are with people and your phone rings, don’t answer it in front of them
except telling the other party you are calling them back. If it is essential,
apologize for taking the call.

2. Use Respectful Language. Watch out for foul language! Be respectful at all
times. It’s not just what you say but also how you say it - either take the trouble to
use the shift key for capital letters, or write in all lower case, but don't use caps
lock. Text in all caps is generally perceived as yelling. Of course, it would be
pleasant if you say please and thank you as appropriate.

3. Share With Discretion. Always be on guard by not sharing unpleasant materials

- drug use pictures, drunk pictures, naked sexy pictures, or unedited home video.
Your problem at home with your family, at work with your boss and co-

P a g e 164 | 189
 employees, and or at the party with friends are yours to keep in private, not for
online sharing.

4. Don't Exclude Others. Be careful with online jokes. If you have a funny comment
on your post involving somebody else, send that comment in private. Don’t
embarrass the person in a bigger group with your obscure comment. The same
thing is true with texted or emailed jokes. The best way not to hurt somebody else
is by not sharing that joke at all.

5. Choose Friends Wisely. Be careful with sending a friend request. Be sure you
know the person whom you want to be friends within social media very closely. If
you don’t want to be in touch with someone, don’t add them. Remember, when
worse comes to worst, it is insulting to be dripped from someone’s friend list on
social media.

6. Don't Email Large Files. Post large files to your own space and send people a
link. Don't attach it to an email so to avoid crashing their server or depleting
their inbox quota.

7. Respect People's Privacy. Avoid sharing the information sent to you without
checking with the original sender. Use BCC (blind carbon copy) rather than CC
(carbon copy) if you are sending it out to more than one person. You might be
thinking that we are all friends on the net, but others would not like their names to
be dragged or publicized. The same goes for uploading photos that include other
to public space, and when tag people on Facebook, others may also have access
to those people unless they have adjusted their privacy settings. And most
importantly, don't sign up for newsletters and other communications using
someone else's email address.

8. Fact Check Before Reposting. You might be too overwhelmed in sharing

something thinking you have done a wonderful thing to people with the
information that you have gathered, ensuring it’s beneficial just to be bashed for
sharing fake news. Don’t be naïve. Forwarding a message will not bring you
good luck, just bad karma! So, check first whether what you are going to share is
legit or a hoax.

9. Respond to Emails Promptly. No one can stop you from ignoring and deleting
crazy stuff, spam, and unsolicited messages but for a message coming from
someone you have given your email address to, you are in a position to have the
courtesy of replying their messages. If it is a survey and quite long, you can
always tell them you have difficulty understanding the question and might be
better off looking for the information elsewhere. To decline with proper reason is
a form of courtesy rather than simply ignoring it.

P a g e 165 | 189
 10. Update Online Information. Keep your website up to date. It is a way of making
people aware of your availability. Don’t give them the idea that you are available
when, in fact, you are not. If you can’t do it, take it down.

Application
Creating Netiquette Campaign Material
1. First, on your own, list down your internet etiquette about fighting online
rudeness and helping to bring courtesy and respect back to the web.
2. Chat with a classmate and discuss your internet guidelines with him/her. Listen
also from his/her ideas. Put together all your minds and create a peer internet
etiquette.
3. You may opt to do any of the following:
3.1 You may use the application tools that you have learned, such as
https://www.powtoon.com or any other digital apps, and create a two-minute
video about your netiquette guidelines and ask permission to disseminate
them on your whole college or university – as a campaign material to
encourage everyone to use the internet responsibly.
3.2 You can upload it to your ePortfolio.
3.3 You can also post on your group FB page.

Closure
Congratulations! After coming up with all your outputs and sharing them
accordingly, surely, you are making positive digital footprints and your digital tattoo now
resonates an aura of a responsible global digital citizen and by doing so, by constant self-
checking, eventually, there is no doubt of you becoming a champion in demonstrating
social, ethical, and legal responsibilities in using technology tools and resources. Aja!

Time Frame 2 days

Introduction

In this age of lightning-fast information transfer, teachers and students alike

become increasingly reliant to online learning sites, communities, and resources.
Teaching and learning are now taking place on digital platforms and e-learning ecologies,
thereby bridging the gaps that physically divide various educational institutions.
While there are many educational sites and portals available on the web, access to
these resources are, however, limited. Both teachers and students are constrained by their
knowledge, skills, and even financial capacity. Furthermore, finding the right site or
portal that fits one’s instructional needs is another challenging task. With these
challenges at hand, it is essential for teachers to be influenced by both research and
practice in the utilization, development, and evaluation of online learning platforms.
In this lesson, you will be introduced to several educational sites and portals that
are useful in various content areas, and will be connected to different online learning
communities and resources through hands-on and direct experiences.

What are Educational Sites and Portals?

Educational sites and portals are websites that help different educational sectors by
providing access to relevant information and resources to each community served. To
improve their teaching, teachers can find useful instructional tools, and by using these
portals they enhance student-centered learning. Students will have access to other
resources and facilities, including learning materials, lesson plans, current event news,
instant messaging and e-mail, and the opportunity to perform guided searches.

Some Examples of Online Educational Sites and Portals

Check these educational sites and portals by clicking the web link provided on the
table below:

AWS Educate is a global initiative created by

Amazon.com, one of the world’s largest tech giants. The
www.awseducate.com platform has a strong education-to-career focus.

animated videos, providing teachers with an international
www.ed.ted.com forum to develop their interactive lessons, helping
interested students around the globe introduce TED to their
classrooms, acquiring presentation literacy skills, and
promoting creative leadership in the global network of
TED-Ed.

Online Communities for Education

What is an Online Learning Community?

Many educators are turning to Facebook or Twitter for the latest strategies,
materials, ideas, and news in teaching. But did you know that just for educators, there are
hundreds of online communities? You will network with fellow teachers through these
social networks, extend your personal learning network (PLN), discover and share tools,
and build peer-to-peer relationships. We've assembled a list of our favorite online teacher
groups.
Online learning communities are essential to achieving a productive environment
for online learning. That is why they're so popular, especially in not only in higher
education but also in other grades primary and secondary. Community participants in
online learning create an interactive canvas of diverse reactions and feedback.

You find ways to explore, learn, evolve, build skills, and look for intellectual
understanding-something you wouldn't do themselves. Such learning interactions instill a
sense of belonging and camaraderie that inspires and motivates online learners to
persevere. Nonetheless, most teachers are unable to include learners in the discussion
board because the learners are pursuing the courses in their time room.

There are also ways you can use to slowly create involvement and, eventually, a
real sense of community. What you need is to make improvements in the design of your
course like group learning activities. Some examples
of Online Communities:

Closure

Educational sites and portals are designed to aid and not replace teachers in the
teaching-learning process. It is through this premise that one must master the nitty-gritty
and technical know-how of accessing various educational sites and portals as well as in
connecting with online learning communities and resources.

As future teachers, you are now given the power of technology to optimize the
teaching-learning process. Make sure that you use this power to the fullest!
Congratulations, you may now proceed to the next part of the lesson.

Lesson 5
P a g e 176 | 189
 Collaborative Projects and Technology Tools

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:

 Collaborate with stakeholders in the development of ICT-based
teaching and learning materials;
 Familiarize oneself with various technology tools; and
 Develop own teaching and learning materials with the use of
technology tools.

Time Frame 3 days

Introduction

The use of technology tools in the teaching-learning process is becoming

increasingly relevant in the digital age. In essence, technology tools are software or
applications that can be used to develop or support online course content.
It is on this note that teachers must be familiar with various technological tools and
are capacitated to utilize them in the development of teaching-learning materials.
Meanwhile, in order to optimize the use of technology in instruction, there is a need to
bridge gaps between collaborative barriers. In the e-learning ecologies, collaboration is
made more possible with the physical divide becoming less visible. Both teachers and
students can now interact virtually, thus creating more spaces for collaboration.
Collaborative projects are integral to allow multiple but holistic perspectives in the
development of instructional materials.
In this lesson, you will be introduced to various technology tools and be given the
chance to utilize them in teaching and learning process. You will also be asked to
collaborate with stakeholders in the development of contextualized teaching-learning
materials.

The Use of Technology Tools in Teaching and Learning

Schools use a diverse set of technology tools to communicate, create, disseminate,

store, and manage information. In some contexts, technology tools formed an integral
part of the teaching-learning interaction, through approaches such as replacing
chalkboards with interactive digital whiteboards, using students' own smartphones or
other learning devices during class time, and the "flipped classroom" model where
students watch computer-in-house lectures and use classroom time for more interactive
exercises.
When teachers are digitally literate and trained to use technology tools, such
strategies will contribute to higher-order thinking skills, provide students with innovative
and individualized ways to communicate their understandings, and better prepare
students to cope with rapid technological change in society and the workplace.

MODULE SUMMARY
You have just completed Module 6 of Technology for teaching and Learning
one covering Social. Ethical and Legal Responsibilities in the Use of Technology
Tools and Resources. Important key points included in the module include:
 A global citizen understands the interrelatedness of everything to
everything else;
 A global citizen is one who sees the world as a community, possesses the
ability to comprehend actions that contribute to the value of the world as a
P a g e 185 | 189
 whole and one who is concerned about how one could participate and
provide for the benefit of the whole world;
 A digital citizen is an individual who adheres to the guidelines related to
the ethical and responsible use of technology – one who acts responsibly
in all relationships and interactions in the digital world;
 A global digital citizen is an empowered individual who is dutifully aware
of his/her responsibility both for the power of the Internet and for the
lasting well-being of our global community;
 There are five tenets of global digital citizenship, namely: personal
responsibility; global citizenship; digital citizenship; altruistic service;
and environmental stewardship;
 There are nine elements of digital citizenship, such as: digital access;
digital etiquette; digital commerce; digital rights and responsibilities;
digital literacy; digital law; digital communication; digital health
wellness; and digital security;
 Intellectual property rights are the rights given to persons over the
creations of their minds;
 Customarily, there are two types of intellectual property rights, namely:
copyright and rights related to copyright; and industrial property;
 Copyright infringement pertains to the violation of someone's intellectual
property (IP). It is another term for piracy or the theft of someone’s
original creation, especially if the one who stole recoups the benefits and
not the creator of the material;
 The use of Internet materials without proper citation is not exempted from
copyright infringement;
 Plagiarism is a form of copyright infringement. It is a failure in citing the
source, while copyright infringement is a failure to obtain permission. In
other words, copyright infringement is a violation of the rights of the
copyright holder;
 The things you put online can stay there forever and might be the first
thing people notice about you, as a form of digital tattoo;
 No matter what you do online you must know what kind of trails – digital
footprints, you're leaving, and what the possible effects can be;
 Etiquette principles are just as important in cyberspace as they are in the
physical world—and bad netiquette facts will hang around to haunt you for
much longer while illustrating ethical, social, and legal obligations through
the use of technology tools and resources ultimately creates a positive
digital footprint for any global digital citizen;
 Portals of educational services are vertical portals that provide a public
link to find Web pages and information on the Internet. Instructional
portals are variations of business knowledge portals that provide an entry
point for an educational institution or organization's private resources and

P a g e 186 | 189
 information. Applying this concept helps an individual to understand the
function of an educational portal. Also, it is possible to predict the path of
educational portals in the future, by noting that educational portals
represent the progress of other portals; and
 It happens that even a conventional classroom today has no open-ended or
interactive resources. To explore and learn new techniques, and keep on
top of stuff, is essential for modern teachers. Here's a list of the necessary
tools you need to turn your classroom into a mixed-learning or digital one.
The best teachers know the best tech tools to impress their students and
make the best they can be at their lessons.
 Technology platforms to teach provides incentives for all. Students with
special needs, students who live in remote locations, or who travel always
benefit immensely from technology and distant learning. It happens that
even a typical classroom today has no media or internet resources at all.
The exploration and learning of new technologies and keeping on top of
things is, therefore, important for modern teachers.
