Educational Technology
• The word “technology” comes from the Greek word tehcne which means craft or art. Based
on the etymology of the word “technology”, the term educational technology, therefore,
refers to the art or craft of responding to our educational needs.
• Technology is not just machines. It is a “planned, systematic method of working to achieve
planned outcomes – a process not a product. Technology is the applied side of scientific
development.” (Dale, 1969)
• Technology also refers to any valid and reliable process or procedure that is derived from the
basic research using the scientific method. Technology refers to “all the ways people use
their inventions and discoveries to satisfy their needs and desires.
Educational Technology
-It is a complex, integrated process involving people, procedures, ideas, devices and organizations for analyzing
problems and devising, implementing, evaluating and managing solutions to the problems in all aspects of human
learning.
- It is a field study which is concerned with the practice of using educational methods and resources for ultimate
goal of facilitating learning process. (Lucido and Borabo)
Technology in Education- application of technology to any of those process involved in operating the institutions
which house the educational enterprise.
Instructional Technology- refers to those aspects of technology that are concerned with constructions as contrasted
to designs and operations of educational institutions.
Technology Integration- using learning technology to introduce, reinforce, supplement and extend skills
Educational Media- channels or avenues or instruments of communications. Examples are books, magazines,
newspapers, radio and television and Internet.
Benefits of Incorporating
Technology into Physical
Education classes
One of the benefits of incorporating technology into physical education
classes is that learning can be enhanced beyond strategies, skills, and rules
between individual and team sports.
It becomes possible to align physical education with other areas such as math
or geography, and physical activities can be individualized to create optimal
challenges for students.
Some ways to Integrate Technology into
Physical Education
Teaching physical education can be challenging for any
number of reasons, from a lack of equipment to keeping
students engaged.
To meet these challenges, some educators are turning to
technology to create more dynamic classes that work for
students with a wide range of fitness levels.
Here are some examples of technology and how you can use
them in your classes.
PEDOMETERS
• Pedometers are probably one of the first examples that come to mind when discussing technology and
physical activity. Measuring steps is one of the easiest ways to measure physical activity, and pedometers
can be used by a wide range of age groups.
• Another benefit of using pedometers is they can be used in a variety of tasks, such as doing household
chores or scavenger hunts.
Pedometers
HEART RATE MONITORS
• Heart rate monitors are used to measure a student’s pulse while engaged in activities.
Using these devices allows educators and students to aim for an individualized target
heart rate that is challenging to maintain but not too difficult to achieve.
• By customizing student goals, students feel more involved and more empowered to
continue with fitness. Once more, there are different target rates depending on age and
ability, so remember to take those into consideration.
HEART RATE MONITORS
HEALTH TRACKING
• Taking the data used by heart monitors and pedometers is vital to creating a long-
term plan for advancing health.
• Some pedometers and heart monitors have connectivity built in, which makes the
process easier.
• Using tracking programs or monitoring systems provides
HEALTH TRACKING
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE TEACHING STRATEGIES IN PE & HEALTH EDUCATION WITH THE USE OF ICT?
Multiple active learning strategies may be helpful for designing an active
learning session. Not all techniques listed here will have universal demand, with
factors such as instructor teaching style and personality influencing which
choices may be right for a teacher. Some of the strategies are as follows:
1.Think-Pair-Share: Allow student to think individually about the
question or idea(s) put forth by a teacher, pair up with someone to
discuss their thinking, and then Share their conversation with their
group, and then finally with the whole class.
2. Polling: This students vote anonymously on what they perceive as the best
explanation/answer to a question, followed by opportunities to discuss their
ideas with peers, and then to vote again leads to greater learning of the material.
It is important to have students discuss why they think their explanation is the
most accurate and also why the other explanations proposed are not accurate.
There are various tools that can be used for polling, including Clickers,
Socrative.com and Poll.Everywhere.com.
3. Flipped Classroom is nothing but a student doing preparatory activity such as
watching a video or reading some material outside the class and doing a lot of active
learning on that material in the class. The class time is spent in assimilation rather
than information transmission. Class time is spent in the higher cognitive levels of
apply, analyze and create on the topic rather than low levels of recall and understand.
The support of peers and the instructor is available to the student while they are
working on these higher cognitive levels.
4. Jigsaws: In small group’s student read information that has been organized into sections.
Each student in the group reads one section of the material and then shares that
information with the rest of their group. As they read and share information, they refer to
prompts such as: what do you think each idea means? What is the big idea? How can this
idea be applied to help understand the concept(s)? What questions do you have about
what you read? What do you agree/not agree with?
5. Turn and Talk: Ask peers to talk to each other about what they do and
don’t understand and/or share with each other what they wrote down in
their notes about a particular concept just covered in lecture. Encourage
students to add to their notes from the discussion.
6. Brainstorm ideas: There are many effective ways for students to create
brainstorms of ideas. Working with pairs or in small groups tends to be
effective because students stimulate each other’s thought processes.
Encouraging students to think out of the box and to delve into a topic using
this technique often has unexpectedly positive results.
7. Empty Outline through polling with think-pair-share: Distribute a partially
completed outline of today’s lecture and ask students to fill it in. Useful at
start or at end of class. This activity can be individually voting for a student
or Students can vote in form a group what they identify by using think pair
share.
8. Fish Bowl: In this technique, the instructor gives students index cards and
asks them to write down one question concerning the course material. They
should be directed, for example, to ask for clarification of some aspect of the
material that they do not fully understand; or, perhaps, to ask about applying
course material to practical contexts. This can be done by dropping questions
in a forum type panel in LMS.
9. Quiz/Test Questions: By asking students to contribute exam questions,
instructors encourage them to think more deeply about the course material, explore major
themes, compare the different views presented, make applications, and demonstrate other higher
order thinking skills. The students’ questions may be used on exams, as the basis of review
sessions, and as models of the most effective questions.
10. Crossword Puzzle: Crossword is a quick and effective way to reinforce essential concepts
and vocabulary. It provides students with an opportunity to think critically,
collaborate, compete, recall and discuss salient concepts by using essential
vocabulary associated with these concepts
ACTIVITY
Research 20 different applications that you think will help you when you in teaching
Physical Education and Health. Please be reminded of the descriptions of educational
technology as being described. You are not limited to the applications that can be installed
on your mobile phone. It can also be devices or machines that you can use when teaching
Physical Education and Health. Do not forget to include a brief description on how to use
these applications devices/machines and also what these applications/devices/machines are
all about.
