Much like field studies in teacher education, Educational Technology 2 offers students the experiential process of adapting to technology integration within a student-centered paradigm. This is the practicum phase of the course which can be done, as seen fit by the teacher, either at the end of the more theoretical lessons or inserted between lessons. The practicum phase consists of hands-on computer tutorials which the student teacher or professional teacher-trainee will need to make him/her capable. The practicum phase consists in: Basic Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint and Internet as tool of inquiry.
In sum, Educational Technology 2 promises to bring the student teacher and the professional teacher trainee to the challenge of a new age—integrating technology in the teaching-learning process. The brisk pace of technology advancement and innovation continues, but ET 2 is a preparation to bring our teachers to move ahead with their use of technology in the classroom.
As a future teacher, I must appreciate the broad benefits that the computer can bring in the lives of students and teachers. Educational Technology 2 meets the expectation of a future teacher like me - to use and apply the new trends of technology in teaching. Educational Technology 2 aims to have modern teachers that will teach modern students. To use the different technologies as a strategy in teaching, it will be more effective and pleasing to the students.
