Download or read book ICT Based Assessment Methods and Programs in Tertiary Education written by Meri Yilan, Serpil and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-04-17 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in education has revolutionized learning.

Download or read book Integrating Digital Technology in Education written by R. Martin Reardon and published by IAP. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth volume in the Current Perspectives on School/University/Community Research series brings together the perspectives of authors who are deeply committed to the integration of digital technology with teaching and learning. Authors were invited to discuss either a completed project, a work-in-progress, or a theoretical approach which aligned with one of the trends highlighted by the New Media Consortium’s NMC/CoSN Horizon Report: 2017 K-12 Edition, or to consider how the confluence of interest and action (Thompson, Martinez, Clinton, & Díaz, 2017) among school-university-community collaborative partners in the digital technology in education space resulted in improved outcomes for all—where “all” is broadly conceived and consists of the primary beneficiaries (the students) as well as the providers of the educational opportunities and various subsets of the community in which the integrative endeavors are enacted. The chapters in this volume are grouped into four sections: Section 1 includes two chapters that focus on computational thinking/coding in the arts (music and visual arts); Section 2 includes three chapters that focus on the instructor in the classroom, preservice teacher preparation, and pedagogy; Section 3 includes four chapters that focus on building the academic proficiency of students; and Section 4 includes two chapters that focus on the design and benefits of school-university-community collaboration.

Download or read book Culture and Technology Integration in Higher Education written by Ling Li and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-16 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates universities’ technology implementation from a cultural perspective. Through an ethnographic study conducted in a Chinese university, the book examines the impact of culture on teachers’ technology adoption at multiple levels, focusing on pedagogical beliefs (personal level), collegial culture (interpersonal level) and managerial culture (institutional level). The finding reveals how culture influenced teachers’ perception, interpretation and engagement with technology, thereby upsetting the university’s efforts to change. With the wholesale, top-down adoption of education technology in the COVID-19 context, this book is a timely treatise on a global understanding of culture’s meaning in change implementation. The culturally anchored issues documented in this book will shed light on the formulation of effective change strategies that focus on the minds of people, and will be especially useful for those who strive to forge a more successful and sustainable future of higher education with technology.

Download or read book The Experience of Technology Integration by Teacher Educators in Higher Education written by Patricia Ann Suess and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advancing use of technology globally, it is becoming essential for K-12 educators to have knowledge of educational technology and its appropriate classroom use. Thus, it is important for higher education faculty involved in the preparation of those K-12 teachers to achieve technology integration in their teacher education programs. It is not sufficient to simply provide computers and peripheral devices to future teachers. The critical issue is the way in which those tools are used to promote student learning. Therefore, it is necessary for faculty in higher education to model the use of technology as a teaching and learning tool. In order to programmatically influence this change, universities must determine what promotes greater technology use among its teacher educators. This study investigates the development of technology integration by teacher educators in a Midwestern university's college of education. It explores the experiences of faculty who are attempting to integrate technology in their courses. This study provides insights into the strategies and techniques that have aided one Midwestern university in its struggle to impact technological change in a teacher preparation program. The roles and classification of various components, such as primary and secondary benefits, can be generalized to other settings. Furthermore, the obstacles to technology integration have been identified in a context that informs administration and support personnel. Knowing the barriers should assist institutions in planning to accommodate and overcome these difficulties. An outcome of this research is a systemic model describing the findings with the participants involved in this study. The model is based on time-availability-benefit factors which create a framework for the teaching and learning process of a single course. Motivation, an attribute of the instructor control, is dependent upon these factors and impacts the change process. Thus, a main result is the existence of this model which can be tested in additional educational settings so that other researchers may elaborate on it. This study does not attempt to address whether or not technology integration is a worthy goal. Instead, it focuses on successful strategies and techniques and opens the door to further exploration of unresolved impedances.
