Reflections on Chapter 2

Education Technologies play a grave role in the way students will continue to learn in the future. The knowledge and skills necessary to make informed and reasonable decisions and other consequences should be treated as technological advances. Technology is not simply computers; it is learning to learn technology. Libraries have long served crucial roles in learning. The first great library, nearly 2,000 years ago, was really the first university. It consisted of a zoo and various cultural artifacts in addition to much of the ancient world's written knowledge and attracted scholars from around the Mediterranean, who lived and worked in a scholarly community for years at a time. The libraries we are members of today do not play the role of the university, but ever university has a library. Libraries have adapted over time and have become a teaching and learning tool for educators to encompass all students. Teachers must understand technology and embrace student’s success that will allow new concepts in many shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Student’s quality arises from their individual learning experience, the beliefs they have about teaching and learning, how they conceptualize their work, and the ways in which they interact with technology. Teacher’s personal beliefs and values provide the unconscious foundation for their behavior. The metaphors they use to describe their work shape the world in which they and their students operate. Because teachers' mental models of reality are highly individualistic, no two classrooms are, or can be, the same. Therefore, Technology Education is shaped and molded by educators. Real knowledge is acquired by learning what interests you, through reading, investigation, practice, or any other desirable method. To become intelligent, you must engage in activity with the idea that is you learning because you want to, because knowledge is a goal. Technology influences change, change that is power, power that has the ability to influence change.
Innovative and commendable features of the technology include but are not limited to presenting scenes, screen images, and programs from contemporary school settings. This enables teachers and students alike to visual an artifact that emphasizes data information. The teacher is allowed to have focus groups that appear throughout the learning process. Emerging technological advances that are available, but not widely distributed continue to advance the learning assessment including a large number of application ideas for students of different ages and levels of maturity and abilities. Education Technologies with several innovative and proven ideas for learners will continue to play sufficient roles in teaching and learning.
