My first day of EDET was inspirational. Knowing that
technology plays a major role in education in today’s world, it was refreshing
to be notified that a course like EDET is available which focuses on ways to
involve technology in our classrooms.
What Is Technology
and Educational Technology? What are the Roles of Technology? Those were
the questions asked as we were able to identify each.
I defined Technology as any tool or strategy that is used to communicate with others that helps to enhance everyday life. Educational Technology was defined as any device or material used that allows you to bring education to life or to help enhance the forum for education (makes it easier).

The Roles of Technology in Education
- To make learning/ teaching easier
- Provides a quicker way to access information
- To provide a creative and effective way of teaching and learning which makes it easier to share knowledge and cater to the needs of every individual.
As I proceed in my EDET journey, my goal is to gain the
knowledge needed to make learning more creative in my classroom and to be able
to use that technology to bring across my lessons and to stimulate a positive
learning environment that I can in turn be proud of.
I’m excited to learn new things this Semester!!
Thought of the week: Empowered through Creativity.
Technology rules!
