Lesson 9: Computers as an Information and Communication Technology

Content
            This topic talks about how the computer becomes a source of information for easily access and a communication tool for better learning. Based on the topic, it become a computer assisted Instruction which has the aim of Individualized learning and realism which appeals with drill exercises and by using colour, music and animations. This computer is really used in education as being mentioned above. The most common nowadays is the PC or personal computer which is a communication media that has an audio-visual media as ICT which is also use in educational media and instructional media. Instructional Media includes the Photo, film, video while the Educational Media includes the Print, film, TV, radio and etc. Personal Computer have many things inside just like the Microsoft office which includes the PowerPoint, Excel, Internet Explorer, yahoo, google, and adobe. this personal computer has the reader, MSN, Media player, Cybelink Power, Game house which can be used in teaching and learning process.
Experiences
            I have experience using all of these applications. At first, of course it is really hard to memorize the patterns and to operate it. But with the help of practice, you would be able to make it and operate it with ease. And based on the experiences it is really useful especially in doing things and searching for something. It is very convenient and comfortable to use. Though, there are those hard to operate because I’m not used to it but still, we can keep that thing aside first. From the IT subject to that we had up to the Educational Technology 1 that we have experience, I think, all of those things were covered and given an activity using those applications and programs. Nowadays, it is rally normal in using and being exposed to these things since mostly of the homes now are having their PC which makes them acquainted with programs and applications. On the other hand, I still observed that there are still those who do not know how to operate well a thing like his. but still, there are those who are afraid of using it.
Reflection
            Based on the Experiences and Observations that I have, I realize that nowadays, it is very common that you are having you personal computer at your house. Although there are still places which these kind of technology never acquainted or meet. Beyond the great impact of these technologies to us, I realize that it starting making the human beings so dependent on it and making them lazy sine they grew up in an era where everything can get easily. As a future teacher, we should know better ourselves if we are a catalyst of change for better or for worse. We should be a good reflector, model, mentor and agent so that in everything we do; we can inspire goodness and improvement. I realize that I should observe more, learn more, and reflect more from the environment that I belong and to those I cannot reach. I realize that we should be responsible enough to our actions so that we would aware if we are doing right or not

Application
            We could apply these things when we started to teach no just in our student teaching but also in our future teaching. We should be equipped enough with knowledge about these and skills on how to operate it. We should be competent enough in our future teaching that we could apply these skills that we have learned for implementing and assessing the students that we may have. We should expose our student in different aspects of these so that they would be competent also not just in operating it but also on integrating it to their learning and future use. we should let them realize also on how to use this properly and appropriately so that they would be nurtured not just with knowledge about these but also with values and attitudes that could inspire others and make a better future
