THREE DOMAINS OF EDUCATIONAL

TECHNOLOGY
According to Stosic (2015)
• TECHNOLOGY AS A TUTOR
• Programmed technology (educational programs)
• TECHNOLOGY AS A TEACHING TOOL
• It is used to facilitate and to lighten the work of the teacher
• TECHNOLOGY AS A LEARNING TOOL
• Learning becomes easy and effective
• Regardless of age, technology serves as a learning tool to many people
 FOR TEACHERS AND TEACHING
• 1. Technology provides enormous support to the teacher as the
facilitator of learning.
• 2. Technology has modernized the teaching-learning environment.
• 3. Technology improves teaching-learning process and ways of
teaching.
• 4. Technology opens new fields in educational researches.
• 5. Technology add s to the competence of teachers and inculcates
scientific outlook.
• 6. Technology supports teacher professional development.
 FOR LEARNERS AND LEARNING
• 1. Technology supports learners to learn how to learn on their own.
• Three Categories of Knowledge (Egbert 2009)
• Declarative Knowledge
• Structural Knowledge
• Procedural Knowledge
• 2. Technology enhances learners’ communication skills through social
interactions.
• 3. Technology upgrades learners’ higher order thinking skills (HOTS);
critical thinking, problem solving, and creativity.
 Three Categories of Knowledge
according to Egbert (2009)
• DECLARATIVE KNOWLEDGE
• Information that answers the questions WHAT, WHO, WHEN, AND WHERE.
• Often learned through memorization of facts, drills, and practice.
• Can be learned by simple mnemonics and concept maps.
• STRUCTURAL KNOWLEDGE
• Facts put together to attain meaning
• Example: “pencil” – the idea that evolved from a pencil is an understanding that : “it is
something used to write” – this is structural knowledge.
• It can be presented by concept maps, categorization, classification.
• PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE
• Knowledge of how to do something
• Based n facts but learned through the process of procedural knowledge.
• Examples: how to drive a car, how to speak English, how to cook meals
 2. Technology enhances learners’ communication
skills through social interactions.
• Three Basic Communication Patterns (According to Shirly 2003)
• 1. POINT-TO-POINT TWO-WAY OR ONE-TO-ONE
• Internet Chat, Phone Conversation, face-to-face conversation
• 2. ONE-TO-MANY OUTBOUND
• Lecture, Television, Speech
• 3. MANY-TO-MANY
• Group discussion, buzz session, class interaction
 3. Technology upgrades learners’ higher order
thinking skills (HOTS); critical thinking, problem
solving, and creativity.
• Higher-order thinking, known as higher order thinking skills, is a concept
of education reform based on learning taxonomies. The idea is that some types
of learning require more cognitive processing than others.
• Critical thinking is the analysis of facts to form a judgment. It refers to the
ability to interpret, explain, analyze, evaluate, infer, and self-regulate in order to
make decisions or judgment.
• With technology, one will be able to EVALUATE THE CREDIBILITY OF
THE SOURCE, ASK APPROPRIATE QUESTIONS, BECOME OPEN-
MINDED, DEFEND A POSITION ON AN ISSUE, AND DRAW
CONCLUSION WITH CAUTION.
 Problem Solving Skills
• Problem-solving skills help you determine the source of a problem
and find an effective solution. Although problem solving is often
identified as its own separate skill, there are other related skills that
contribute to this ability.
• Some key problem-solving skills include:
• Active listening, Analysis, Research
• Creativity, Communication
• Dependability, Decision making
• Team-building
