The schools of the future.

Image
Hello everyone.Hope you ‘re all doing fine. We know because we are living it already, that we have entered the unavoidable and developmental period of technology.Schools have upgraded ,have improved not in Albania in particular but generally worldwide .New concepts have been redefined related to schools and teaching ,technology already serves the purposes of teaching through it. I came across a captivating article which was written since 1998 an was not updated still.But what was interesting and captivating was the way how there was written about schools of the future ,everything based and summoned up to one word ‘’technology’’.They had stated this phrase’’Everything will go electronic with a big E’’,very catchy as a phrase. I will share a piece of that article with you . What shape the school of the future will take is amorphous, but most educators and observers agree that the future school will go electronic with a capital E. Next century, schools as we know them will...

Powerpoint as a ‘’cool’’ program for us to use either in teaching or as students as well .

Image
Hello  everyone.How are you ? How was your weekend so far ? This week as a matter of fact I decided to post about a great and very useful progam ‘’Powerpoint’’. Powerpoint is one of the greatest programs we have been using so far .Why do I say so? First of all ,we are now used to it as a program ,it is quite easy to be used and to my opinion very well organized. Second of all its structure as a program is quite interesting ,you can easily make a project or prepare a thesis whatever you may need to do as a teacher or as a student ,without having much trouble you can put everything related to your topic into those slides that can be easily created . Third of it we are already let’s say familiar with it ,putting it into simple words slides can be created one by one with a simple click at new slide and with same way just by clicking cut you can delete it. It is very interesting how you can put everything into those slides like information either in paragraphs or using bu...

What is ‘’visuwords?’’

Image
Hello everyone how have you been so far? I decided to post this time about a very nice program called ‘’visuwords’’.As I was looking up to the dictionary for some new words I encountered this amazing program which I found very useful. So what is ‘’visuwords’’? It is an online graphical dictionary . It helps everyone not only students and us as future teachers but a wider sphere of people. 1)It helps to look up words to find their meanings and  associations  with other words and concepts . 2) It also helps to produce diagrams equal to the view of a neutral net. 3) It helps us learn how all these words associate. Visuwords is for real a very helpful tool for us to use as future teachers for many reasons to my opinion.First of all it is an online graphical dictionary a fast way for us to look up the meaning of words that we may encounter .Secondly when you search for a certain word you don’t get to know only that particular word’s meaning but you get to see...

Digital books

 Hello everyone . Today we had a very interesting hour during the lecture ,the subject was digital books and how can we use them ,the professor there demonstrated a whole new process ,a whole new program about digital text books how can we create exercises,how to treat different topics in class with smartboards. Actually ,the software the professor demonstrated to us was thoroughly  interesting ,really helfpful I must say, I enjoyed the whole hour especially the part of audio video exercises and many others that were shared there . But what are these digital textbooks ? A digital textbook is a digital book or e-book intended to serve as the text for a class. Digital textbooks may also be known as e-textbooks or e-texts. Digital textbooks are a major component of technology-based education reform. They may offer better access to quality texts in the developing world. For this reason, many schools and colleges around the w...

How has technology affected teaching and education?

Image
   Hello   everyone. We have been dealing so far with many different technological tools,multimedia in general. While doing the assignments for each every week we have dealt with different programs , apps that beside the fact some were new to us ,to my opinion ,these elements we have been using so far during this course,have helped us to  learn how to do our assignments through interesting ways or apps . Technology ,I  must say has changed every aspect of modern life and education is no exception of it! The modern school sees students confidently engaging with technology and sharing knowledge with each other through their devices. Increasingly more and more repeatedly  students are looking interactive methods to learn and revise moving away from being confined to a desk reading a dull book,the traditional way we have experienced so far . Teachers now have to make it possible to grab their students attentio...

It is a very important factor lets say, which helps us to have pleasing processes of both learning and teaching ,not only but in each phase of our lives as well ,even in our everyday lives ,projects .At least that’s what I think about using multimedia, it surely has a great importance. There are many definitions of multimedia,some of us can remember from highschool ,when multimedia meant using a program wi t h slides,so we ide nt ified i t wi t h powerpoi nt o n l y .
