Technology Integration

I would integrate technology into my own school by implement a data base systems with an effective data base administrator in the exams department so that learners and teacher can benefit rather than having  headaches with file jackets and papers. This database will also gives securities and lectures limited access at there location when there is a need to check whether or not an individual is a present or pass student. This will impact learners more positively in that learners can easily access there grades rather than waiting in a line filled with a hundred students.

Fifth Reflection

My days in this class are becoming interesting as I learn different important topics that can help to teach using various technologies in the classroom. Today's class was fun as I made an approach to create my own website using webs
.com. Wiki is also and interesting website that fascinate my growth in technology development. The website allows any one or everyone to create their own website whether you want to idle or make progress. I did make my progress using the website and hoping that this knowledge will never dies because I am going to apply it to my future profession.


Learning Theory

As my picture suggest, learning theories focus mostly on our brain. however according to Burns (1995, p99) 'conceives of learning as a relatively permanent change in behaviour with behaviour including both observable activity and internal processes such as thinking, attitudes and emotions.' It is clear that Burns includes motivation in this definition of learning. Burns considers that learning might not manifest itself in observable behaviour until some time after the educational program has taken place.

In my presentation at school about learning theories I elaborate about the brain and how it can affect learning. The brain has four structures:  Cerebrum, Cerebellum, Limbic System, and Brain Stem

Fourth Reflection

Today's class was fun due to the interactive excises I participated in. I leant how to use power Point to administer class activity/quiz when I am teaching a class using Power Point presentations. An example is given above in the picture hence the activities is base on power point but it has its difficulties when preparing the activities. I know that students will love this technique because it is simple and time consuming, and yes the activities can be fun but they are also educated.
