Technology helpsbut doesn’t do a teacher’s job
Aktiv nastavnika engleskog jezika KS, Sarajevo,16.01.2014.
Presenter: Amir Džafo
Arguments in favor of technology in the classroom include:
• Exposing children to technology at an early age prepares them for college and the workforce where knowledge of technology is essential for success.
• Technology fosters connections between people and information, no matter where they are in the world, giving students access to resources around the globe.
• Because children frequently absorb information through technology in their day-to-day lives, they may be more motivated and interested in lessons when technology is used as a teaching tool.
Arguments against technology in the classroom include:
• Online instructional videos and programs don't compare to classroom discussions where students have the opportunity to ask questions and hear the opinions of their peers and teachers.
• There is a level of interaction through an active classroom discussion that you simply can't replicate on a computer screen.
• It's imperative that students learn how to socialize without technology. It's often through engagement with teachers that children learn valuable life lessons such as respect, manners and self-esteem.
• Teachers are one of the most important factors in a student's development and ability to succeed.
