Educ561

 I learned a lot from EDU 560 this semester. The doctor was very helpful. She taught us a lot about educational technology especially that we had no technological background. It is very essential for any modern teacher to have the essential knowledge about technology in order to pass their information in a more effective way to their students.

Since teaching and learning are not only from books but also from technology, students should learn through the technological devices they have and use every day to play games and waste a lot of time without being able to control their time, all the students know a days can't stay away from technology, so if we use technology to help them that will effect them positively and the will learn much more.

There are a lot of programs that the students can learn  from  and which can facilitate their learning process such as blog, wiki , web Quests and webinars. All these programs are able to make there life much easier while they are studying. Also they will become much up to dated with the word around them. Also they will love what they learn since they love the way they are learning.
Moreover, the students' ability to create will increase. The students will search and search to find a way and when they find it they will never forget it and they will be able to transfer it to others. Also they will become much more responsible and they will depend on themselves to find whatever they want. Thus we will get the student centered learning and here the teacher's role will be a facilitator not a maker.
