How technology is going to affect how your students are going to be learning?

Nowadays, technology has play important role in teaching and learning process. According to the research new technologies can provide meaningful learning experiences for all children. I agreed with the statement above as we can see that our students are really interested in their learning if the teacher used technology in the learning process.

In my opinion, technology will produce meaningful, engaged and collaborative learning and through the technology it will change the way of learning. By using technology, teacher can create more challenging task but still the objective of the learning can be achieved as students will interested to learn with something new and challenge to them. This is because, technology will help them in understanding the topic learnt. By using technology, it will give concrete view to them and this will make them understand the lesson well. As we all know that primary pupils are concrete leraners and I believe that technology will change their way in learning. They will have meaningful experience in their learning. As a result, they will remember what had been learn easily. In addition, students also can explore the use of technology and they will practise it together with their friends.

Technology also can be a tool that can motivate students to learn as it will attract them with used of intereting and colourful pictures, animation, cartoons, attractive video clips and etc. Children love all these kind of teaching aids and this will help teacher to achieve their learning objective easily. As I said ealier, students also loves to learn something new. It seems that it is hard to master the skills in using technology but at least we try to make them experience and familiar with it as technology is really helpful in education.
