Educational Technology and Pedagogy Collide

                I stand with the idea that no one dictates the other.

                This is because both educational and pedagogy intertwines. They both need each other. In our today’s situation in a classroom environment, students’ attention span gets shorter and shorter so the use of educational technology is now presented. This can help learning to be more effective. This is in consonance with the principle of self- activity by Froebel which states that learning is the result of the activity of the child himself. The student must not be made for observing what is happening. One must contribute ideas to achieve lively and educational interaction within the setting. By this, learners can also be given various materials from reality to contrived experience to keep them engaged and active for learning and in the quest for knowledge.

                Learning in this case can be utilized at the same time with concrete experiences provided by the various media of instruction. Experiential learning leads to effective absorption of the newly injected knowledge.
