Hi,everyone.
I write some passages about the topic of "innovations such as video,computers, and the Internet offer schools improved methods for instructing students". Hope I can get your advice.
To examine how technology advancements influence the way we learn, we need look no further than a thing that happens frequently and naturally in our daily life. Imagine that you encounter with a sticky problem and you have at hand a smartphone which has connection with the Internet. You naturally unlock your phone, launch the web browser, then type into the search bar the specific problem that troubles you. In the blink of an eye, you will probably get numerous number of ansewers as well as relative website links. Eventually you will know how to figure out your problem. Undoubtedly, this example illustrates a process of learning in today's hi-tech society.
When it comes to offering multimedia experiences, incorporating music and vividly pictures, videos into the learning process, traditional book-centered teaching methods pale in comparison with emerging information-based educational approaches. In other words, multimedia information that is properly chosen for teaching purpose will enable learners to get a better and more thorough understanding of the subject they are working on. A case in point is my learning experience. In electromechanics class, the teacher spended a whole class time to explain what a induction motor is and how it works simply by oral description. However, the structure of induction motor is so complicated that mere written expression and oral description failed to guarantee that everyone in the class know exactly the mechanism of the machine. After class, I turned to the Internet and got a bunch of multimedia materials. Using vivid cartoon and detailed schema, they not only elaborated the induction motor, but also fired up my passion and builded up my confidence to learn this complicated machine.
Traditional book-centered educational methods simply emphasize students' reading comprehension and abstract thinking. However, by adding properly chosen visual and aural information, new educational approaches enable students to have more enduring impressions about what they've learned, thus arousing the enthusiasm of learning and boosting teaching efficiency.
Thanks to the Internet-based learning or asynchronous and synchronous distant learning, people are now finding themselves have more flexibility to choose where and when to take courses. For example, most of the world's prestigious universities and colleges offer online course materials to learners worldwide. Those materials are well designed, including video lesson segments, embedded quizzes, immediate feedback, student-ranked questions and answers, online laboratories and student-paced learning. So comprehensive and detailed that they cover almost every pivotal process of learning, which have comparable effect with that of class-based education.
Another compelling example is BBS. It is virtual place where people studying the same subjects communicate with each other on the Internet . We can see post sharing learning experiences and materials with those who need. What's more, becasue of similiar background and pursue, we not only can find learing partners but also encouragement to keep us moving forward.
