Lesson 5

Preferences of the Technology Generation

             In education, it is important that critical differences in perceptions between old and young which create a generation gap need to be discussed. The traditional education system gives priority to independent learning, prior to participation work. New learners, however, are already acquainted with digital tools that adopt to both personal and participation work. Old teachers teach students in order to help them pass tests and complete the course requirement. On the other hand, the new digital learners simply wish to acquire skills, knowledge and habits as windows of opportunity afford them to learn. In sum, teachers need to connect with digital learners, and not think of them as entering their past-30 year’s old traditional world.

            As a student we are so resourceful when it comes in our education we want a fastest reference in our research that’s why we use technology on it and my mother always telling me that in their time there is no such technology that involve in their studies they always go to library when they research and she also compare our learning to them if we really learn of what we did.  I realized that my mother is right it is too different if we try to depend on the internet because we just copy and paste the idea of others we did not internalized the thoughts of it. But, if we search in the books it surely help us to become a good learner. I am not discriminating the technology I’m just telling if what is the effect on it if we over use the beauty of this technology in our life.

            

APPLICATION

Being a teacher, it is our duty to help our student understand the beauty of education. We should help them to be a responsible citizens not just in the four corners of a classroom but most especially in the real arena of this world. We should take advantage of this technology to help them learn more but we should also put a limitations on it we should not over use technology because  it has a bad effect to our students they become irresponsible men. Be blessed to be part of this 21st century because a lot of change happened that gives life more colorful.
