•Tools and Techniques. •Methodologies.
Educators will need to provide skills that facilitate lifelong learning
It is essential that education provides students with solid search and retrieval skills that ultimately will be more useful than rote
memorization of information.
Clear distinctions must be made between information, knowledge and understanding.
Technologist as Student&
Technologist as Teacher
Although information grows and is nearly infinite, the supply of
teachers is distinctly finite
Teachers should be sages of experience, not simply knowledge.
Human capital is precious and human beings should not be used when electronic systems can do
the same task.
Educational programs must accommodate needs of nontraditional students
Entry-level curricula strengthened with general education provides students with the academic skills, analytic ability and
general knowledge necessary to flexibly meet the challenges of their personal,
civic and professional lives.
The ASRT Education and Research Foundation awards more than
$200,000 in grants and scholarships.
Seven Royce Osborn Scholarships were awarded in 2006,
totaling more than $28,000
Financial support for Royce Osborn Scholarships comes from individual
scholarship patrons and sponsorship from the American Registry of
Radiologic Technologists.
