Tech and education

Technology and education

Do you think technology must or at least should support the learning process?

My answer is, without any question, a big YES.  Involving more than one sense helps the student to get a better quality knowledge.

The best example is the bicycle example: You have to learn how to ride a bike with practice, there is no other way, riding a bike cannot be learned teorically, you need to experiment.   This means that for learning how to ride a bike, you have to involve more than one sense and experiment.  This will create a long term knowledge.  Once you learn how to ride a bike, you'll never forget how to do it.

Same happend with the learning process, if the student involve more than one sense, the generated knowledge will be a long term knowledge.

Today, technology make easy to encourages students to involve more than one sense, thats why, technology must be included as a learning tool.

Cheers!!!
