THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY IN

DELIVERING CURRICULUM

In delivering the curriculum the role of technology is very important.

Right at the planning phase of any instruction, aside from formulating the objectives and among other considerations, there is a need to identify what instructional media are to be utilized in the implementation.

CRITERIA ON ASSESSING A VISUAL

MATERIAL OR PRESENTATIONS

• Visual elements ( pictures, illustrations, graphics ):

1.Lettering style or font---consistency and harmony

2.Number of lettering style---no more than 2 in a static display (chart, bulletin board )

3.Use of capitals---short titles or headlines should be no more than 6 words

4.Lettering colors---easy to see and read. Use of contrast is good for emphasis

5.Lettering size---good visibility even for students at the back of the classroom

6. Spacing between letters---equal and even spacing

7. Spacing between lines---not too close as to blur at a distance

8. Number of lines---No more than 8 lines of text in each transparency/slide

9. Appeal---unusual/catchy, two dimensional, interactive ( use of everlays or movable flaps )

10. Use of directionals---devices ( arrows, bold letters, bullets, contrasting color and size, special placement of an item ).

FACTORS IN TECHNOLOGY

SELECTION

1. PRACTICALITYIs the equipment ( hardware ) or already prepared lesson material ( software ) available?

If not, what would be the cost in acquiring the equipment or producing the lesson in audial or visual form?

2. ACTIVITY / SUITABILITY

Will the chosen media fit the set instructional event, resulting in either information,motivation,orpsychomotor display?

3. APPROPRIATNESS IN RELATION TO THE LEARNERS

Is the medium suitable for the learners’ ability to comprehend?

Will the medium be a source of plain amusement or entertainment, but not learning?

4. OBJECTIVE-MATCHING

Overall, does the medium help in achieving the learners objective (s)?

3 CURRENT TRENDS THAT

COULD CARRY ON THE NATURE OF EDUCATION IN THE FUTURE!

1.The first trend is the paradigm shift from the teacher centered to student-centered approach to learning.

2. The second is the broadening realization that education is not simply a delivery of facts and information, but an educative process of cultivating the cognitive, affective, psychomotor, and much more the contemplative intelligence of the learners of a new age.

3. Is the increase in the use of new information and communication technology or ICT.

THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY

IN CURRICULUM

DELIVERY

• upgrading the quality of teaching-and-learning in schools

• increasing the capability of the teacher to effectively inculcate learning, and for students to gain mastery of lessons and courses

• broadening the delivery of education outside schools through non traditional approaches to formal and informal learning, such as Open Universities and lifelong learning to adult learners

• revolutionizing the use of technology to boost educational paradigm shifts that give importance to students-centered and holistic learning.

In a proposed mastery approach to instruction, the teacher:

a) presents the lesson to the whole class

b) assesses if learners attain mastery of the lesson

c) provides enrichment activities with the use of media technology

d) re-mediates the non-mastery studente) moves on to the next lesson.
