Reflection
I have learned that the change of learning process from integration of
the Internet in the classroom environment comes along with the paradigm
shift of teaching and learning. The main differences between these changes
are the role of teachers, students, and institutions. The students will
be learning by doing. The key is that when students are doing something,
they are typically able to remember the subjects more than when they are
reading, listening, seeing, or saying. The teachers will be teaching by
collaborating with students that can develop classroom environment to
be more interesting. The institutions will also be the efficient education
provider by developing the system for new process.
This course provided me an opportunity to explore that integrating the
internet will enable teachers to easily find the updated and appropriate
information to improve their teaching process and develop their students’
learning. However, teachers should understand the possible impact of this
resource on their students and institution. In addition, teachers should
have to have the abilities to integrate the Internet to enhance classroom
environment, teaching and learning abilities, and life-long learning skill.
Concerning the information used in the classroom, teachers should update
and find new sites that are more effective by themselves, discussing with
other teachers, and even sharing with their students.
