Using the right right technical tool is important for classroom management

In the past 6 months, I've been using a combination of Virtual Classroom, Blog, LSM, & videos.  I recently downloaded Camtasia so I'm interested in learning how to create short lectures and tutorials.  I also utilize break-out rooms to facilitate peer-to-peer knowledge transfer.  

Use the technology tool that is most easily used for the students

One of the most important topics that I learned in this lesson is that the technology tools facilitate the learning process of the students.

I really appreciated the list of general questions to use to assess the technology form for effectiveness. 

Technology tools play a crucial role in enhancing teaching and organizing a virtual learning environment. By leveraging these tools effectively, educators can create engaging learning experiences and improve student outcomes in online education.

Technology tools can help push students towards success

There are so many different tools that we can use as instructors to help assist our students in there learning. This helps to tailor the needs of every student. 

Each instructor has their own style of teaching and using technology you can bridge the gap between teachers and students. Picking the correct technology to suit your students' learning needs increases the effectiveness of our instruction. 

Instructors must judiciously employ different technology tools based on the learning outcomes of the course. This can be done by understanding both the functions and limitations of different technology tools.

I have learned that the technology needs to fit to achieve learning objectives of the course and be evaluated with learner feedback when used.

Identifying multiple teaching strategies to be effective for all the students. In addition, ask for feed back to improve the teaching style. 

asses the tools we have and use them appropriately 

We need to identify possible technology tools, asses them, and choose the appropriate tech for our individual courses and teaching style. 

This module included several pieces of tech that I haven't heard of or explored before. I'm excited to do so, to enhance my online teaching! 

En este modulo aprendi: 

  1. Las diferentes herramientas tecnológicas que como instructores en línea debemos conocer, asi como sus funciones
  2.  la importancia de conocer las funciones de cada herramienta tecnológica.
  3. Y algo super importante entender que el nivel de eficacia de la herramienta va estar directamente relacionada con el la forma como el instructor facilita la enseñanaza, y como el estudiante aprende. 

excelente curso. 

Wikis are another way to engage students. Though I employ different means of instruction and ways to help students, I can see the value of using a shared and evolving resource with students via wikis.

The technology tool should support, not hinder, the teaching an learning process.

Choosing the right tool requires discernment and testing. 

It's not enough to incorporate tech into the classroom.  We have to be selective and purposeful in our choices.
