WITHOUT ACTUAL TRAVEL. Through the use of technology, the impossible things make
possible.
The primary purpose of ss: if the lesson in social studies do not make sense for them, how are we going
to expect them to become good citizens in the future? So as a teacher we should look for ways on how
to make social studies make sense for them.
Common Percepcion: This is very important that we talk about the common perceptions of students on
social studies. Of course, we often hear that social studies are irrelevant, so they don’t see their practical
use of social studies in their life. They also say that ss is just long lectures and text reading, I make sure
that most of our ss teachers can relate to this and we hear this all the time, so attending SS its almost
doing a chore. Its something that you know doesn’t motivate them. But there are so many other ways of
course to teach ss and we will explore some of them later on. We also hear a lot of this memorizing
names, dates and places. Its true that SS involves memorizing a lot of information such as place, location
and dates, however the notion of just mindlessly memorizing all the info is the one that is false. So, it’s
important for students to have a good overall big picture of whatever it is that they are trying to
memorize for it to become a relevant and make sense for them. And of course, I’m pretty sure that we
always hear this from our students that social studies is a boring subject. We get this a lot and let’s face
it most ss classes are not conducted in the most interesting way, so that’s why we need to apply
Technology because it can make our SS classroom more fun and interesting. It can help us to achieve the
ultimate goal of SS.
Educational Technology- It is believed that student involvement in learning is enhanced with computers
which give them the opportunity to explore new areas. They are generally more “on-task” and express
more positive feelings when they use computers than when they are given other tasks to do.
Integrating technology into the classroom creates a rich, effective and efficient learning environment
which improves student performance and learning. technology can play very different roles in the
classroom especially creating materials and processes that attract students to spend more time in their
studies and it will surely help students prepare for their future careers.
For students, having access to mobile devices such as laptops will help them learn
anytime, anywhere. It’ll also give them access to millions of resources that would prove
beneficial to their studies. These tools open doors of learning chances for them for
unexplored topics in their classes. On the other hand, teachers won’t be limited to the
school’s provided modules. They can explore on their own, so they can give the best
info to the class.
Besides, students now have the chance to ask questions related to school. One
practical tip: Be mindful of the teacher’s work hours. Only ask them during this time to
show them the respect they deserve.
Content Knowledge (CK)—what are you teaching and what is your own
knowledge of the subject?
Pedagogical Knowledge (PK)—how do your students learn best and what
instructional strategies do you need to meet their needs and the requirements
of the lesson plan?
Technological Knowledge (TK)—what digital tools are available to you,
which do you know well enough to use, and which would be most appropriate
for the lesson at hand? For this lesson, students will need to label a diagram
and present, so the ability to fill in blanks with an answer key, find images
from the internet, create slides, etc. are important.
Also, online classes these days are a challenge to many students. They are at risk of
developing screen fatigue and burnout. Many are also having a hard time separating
their school tasks from the personal duties at home.
Teachers set the base for the future, and it can’t be replaced by technology.
We haven’t yet seen a classroom of students where computers replace
teachers. However, technology is perfect for aiding the process.
