MODULE 1: TEACHING AND LEARNING WITH TECHNOLOGY:

AN INTRODUCTION

Module Outcomes

 Identified the competency standards of ICT for teaching and learning in pre-service
teacher education;
 Unpacked the basic concepts of ICT to provide common understanding for teachers
and learners; and
 Valued the use of ICT in the teaching and learning processes.

Introduction
If there is one thing that changed the world so fast, it is TECHNOLOGY. While there
exists technology in the past as non-digital technology, the current digital technology has
been a factor that shrunk the world and made it flat. It has provided a new environment for
learning, new ways teachers teach and also the new ways of how learners learn. In the
beginning, it has created a divide between the digital natives and the digital immigrants.
However, as the years go by, such divide has become narrower and even blurred. This has led
to the new educational revolution in teaching and learning which has been triggered by
technology and resulted fo better learning outcomes in the 21st century.

ICT Competency Standards (CHED-UNESCO) as provided in the 2017, Policy,
Standards and Guidelines (PSG) for Pre-service Teacher Education
The program outcomes for teacher education degrees clearly state that every future
teacher: "demonstrate proficiency in the development and utilization of Information,
Communication and Technology (ICT) resources in promoting quality teaching-learning
process."
To ensure that the program outcomes related to ICT shall be achieved, competencies
were identified to be developed by every pre-service teacher (CHED - UNESCO, Bangkok,
2009.)
The ICT Competency Standards is made up of seven domains. Each domain has a set
of competencies. The competencies are expressed in desired learning outcomes. Becoming
proficient in the different competencies will enable you to handle learners or the 21'srmt
century in your future classroom.
These domains and corresponding competencies are found in the Table below:

Lesson 2: Understanding the Basic Concepts in ICT

"I think we need to be careful not to get too specific (i.e. technology computers) while
at the same time not getting so broad that our definition of technology includes
everything from pencil and paper to lasers and computers. I'd like to see us define-
technology in a manner that looks at electronic tools we use to enhance teaching and
learning. Sally, grade teacher from Joy Egbert (2009).

 Software refers to program control instructions and accompanying documentation,
stored on disks or tapes when not being used in the computer. By extension, the term
refers to any audiovisual materials (Smaldino, 2005).
 Multimedia is a sequential or simultaneous use of a variety of media formats in a
given presentation or self-study program (Smaldino, 2005).
 Internet is a massive network of networks, a networking infrastructure. It connects
millions of computers together globally, forming a network in which any computer
can communicate with any other computer as long as they are connected to the
Internet. It is generally defined as a global network connecting millions of computers
(https://www.webopedia.com).
 World Wide Web (www) is also called the Web which is a graphical environment on
computer networks that allows you to access, view and maintain documentations that
can include text, data, sound and videos. (Smaldin0, 2005). It is a way or accessing
information over the medium of the Internet. It is an information sharing model that is
built on top of the Internet.
 Web access is the ability of the learner to access the Internet at any point during the
lesson in order to take advantage of the array of available education resources.
 Web quest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all information that
learners work with comes from the web. These can be created using various
programs, including simple word processing documents that include links to websites.
