my learning about empowerment technology
my learning about empowerment technology is the One of the main areas where technology is having an enormous impact is in online instruction. Many people turn to online courses as a way to start or continue their education in the face of personal obstacles or schedule conflicts. Students are no longer bound by time or geographic constraints when seeking educational opportunities. With proper motivation, many students can work full-time, and tend to their family's needs all while working toward their degree.
While using technology for online learning presents great opportunities for some learners, it is not appropriate for every learner. There are also some teachers who perform best in a traditional classroom rather than in an online environment.
Although technology creates the opportunity for online learning, it does not ensure success. Knowing how to leverage the power of technology can only go so far. I feel that the key to successful online learning experiences depend a great deal more on people skills. The most important factor for success is the effective use of communication skills for both student and instructor. Without the benefit of body language and classroom visuals, the power of timely, well-chosen words gains importance. What may seem perfectly clear and obvious on one end of the online classroom, may be cloudy and confusing when received on the other end of the room. The tone, the emphasis, the mannerisms are not visible in an online classroom.
Clear expectations of both learner and teacher must be set forth at the beginning of class. What does one expect of the other? The teacher needs to lay out the schedule, the topics to be covered, the point value of assignments, the due dates, classroom procedures and policies. The teacher needs to develop instructional methods that use technology to trigger those "a-ha" moments for the learners. Students must be dedicated, on task, responsive and communicate on a regular basis with the teacher. Disciplined learning is imperative for success as an online learners. Never put off until tomorrow what you could (should) do today. It only gets harder to get back to task when you somehow "fall off the track" in an online classroom
