Before starting with the

terminology, I want to share a video

with you…

I hope you will watch it carefully and

recall the way you have studied…

Hello friends, I am VISION…

Only chalk, board and a boring lecture…

No interaction,

No participation,

No enthusiasm,

No technology…

What kind of technology we

require in education???

Its educational technology…

Lets understand it…

Educational technology, sometimes

termed EdTech or Learning

Technology, is the study and ethical

practice of facilitating learning and

improving performance by creating, using

and managing appropriate technological

processes and resources.

According to the Association for Educational

Communications and Technology (AECT)

Definitions and Terminology Committee,

Educational Technology includes other systems used in

the process of developing human capability. Educational

technology includes, but is not limited to, software,

hardware, as well as Internet applications, such as wikis

and blogs, and activities. But there is still debate on

what these terms mean.

So, according to me, educational technology includes all the teaching learning aid…

For e.g.: chalk, black board, charts, flash cards, activities, play ground, computer, radio, internet, interactive board, open sources etc…

But

Are they sufficient in teaching learning process in 21st century??

And if yes, Are we using them properly???

Lets find answers for all the questions above…

Why am I

talking about

21st century???

We needs to understand why we are stressing over 21st century education.

For this, I wants to show you a video about the kids we are going to teach in a very near future…

Hello friends, I am rationality

So here, we are going to teach children of 21st

century…

Techno savvy

Techno lover

Techno freak…

This generation children are considered as digital natives…

Why we need to use technology in the

new era of

education???

Is it a new trend in teaching learning process?

Wasn’t it required before???

Lets see one more video

Vision and then our many

questions will be answered…

Use of technology*

In education is an

ancient time

practice…

*Only the products are changed…

So, What does it mean???

Are we dependent on

technology to teach???

If teachers can provide only• Content

• Fact

• Dates

• Formulae

•Research

• Theories

• Stories• Information

Then our role in lives of students will no more be

important…

Students can find Information

Anytime

Anywhere

On Anything

Virtually, limitless information is available to students under the sun…

WWW means:

Teachers are not the only source of

information

So???

TEACHER

How should we teach students to handle these resources???

Everyone

know

how to

use

search

engines…

Children learn to operate computers at a very young age

But , Where are they learning from???

•Friends?•Strangers?

•Themselves???

But has anyone told them how to:

• Validate information?

•Synthesize information?

•Leverage information?

•Communicate information?

•Collaborate with information?

•Solve problem with

information?

And what about

•Responsibility???

•Reliability???

•Truthfulness?

Create your own cyber products for your students or may be open to all and motivate

students to use your products online/offline…

What is the solution???

Own cyber products…

Time &

Resources???

If we will focus on the objectives

mentioned before then who is going

to cover our syllabus???

And

How is it going to follow our

curriculum???

With all the information

available on internet,

should our curriculum be

focused on

facts and contents or

skills?

VS

What is the requirement

of skills in curriculum???

It’s the need of time…

In Hotels

Higher Education & Research

In Hospitals

In Government Jobs like Railways

In Engineering

In RealEstate

In Music

In Defense In Social Relationships

In Sports and Games

In Environment

In AstronomyIn Astrology

Old version

Requirement of future

Create…

What does create mean

today???

CREATE WHAT???

We need to rethink

the tools we use and

the types of problems

we ask students to

solve…

How do we manage laptops ,cell phones, mp3 player,

internet connections in the class room?

The same way we managepaper charts, books,pencil box, flash cards etcin the class room…

But, These gadgets are not good

for behavioral changes of students….

The tools provides

temptations,

but they are not the

source of negative

behavior…

Any lesson you create, no matter what tools are used,Has to be…

•Relevant

•Engaging

•Challenging

Remember…Students do not need to be entertained…They need to be engaged…

Agreed???

Our charge, as a facilitator, is to provide

Meaningful Engagement

So from where does it start???

See what's out there…

Find some sites

www.mathszone.co.ukwww.mathgoodies.comwww.nrich.maths.orgwww.counton.org

www.ipracticemaths.com

Try some software

GeogebraMathematicaMatlab

Math blasterCompu-math:fractionmathFacts in a flash

Mathtype

And a lot more…

Do some re-search

There are loads many topics in mathematics which are untouched by the books and syllabus written in our

curriculum. Perhaps such topics are quite interesting and creative. Try to find such topics and inculcate

them in our students…

Few examples are:SudokuCalcuro

Number PatternsMathematical games

Tessellations…

What to do with these all now???

Take first step small…Have a start: Change can not occur

Without conflicts. Try something and

see what happen

Collaborate: Don’t do it alone… Plan together and

discuss what others have found useful

Relate: If you will find it useful for 21st century learner,

so you can motivate the learner to move further…

And remember the big picture

o No matter what content you teacho No matter what skills you teacho No matter what subject you teach

What matter is the question,

What does it mean to teaching in new era???

TEACHING IN

NEW ERA
