The
Role of Technology in 21st Technology Education
As for the changing world of today’s
the teachers, facilitators and leaders are tend to change the strategy of
teaching for the children to educate; create a curriculum that will help
students connect with the world and understand the issues that the world faces.
In this new era the people are more into technology especially the students
that they are more dependent in the so-called “surfing” and some teachers use
this kind to be their basis in teaching the lesson. “They let the students to
go on surfing and somehow research about the topic that they will discuss the
topic in the classroom or make an output out of it” this technique also called
student-centered learning. This kind of technique does not replace the teacher
or the traditional teacher but it helps the students to be more independent on
how to organize their ideas in managing their learning and to learn in some
ways too.
Schools in the 21st century
will become nerve centers, a place for teachers and students to connect with
those around them and their community. Teachers in this new environment will
become fewer instructors and more orchestrators of information, giving children
the ability to turn knowledge into wisdom. In order to educate in the
21st century, teachers and administrators need to cultivate and
maintain the student's interest in the material by showing how this knowledge
applies in the real world. They must also try to increase their student's
curiosity, which will help them become lifelong learners that they should be
flexible with how they teach and give learners the resources to continue
learning outside the school campus.
