Technology in its various forms has infiltrated every aspect of our professional, personal and social lives. In this issue of Teacher Plus, we examine how technology plays a role in education–both from the perspective of the facilitator (the teacher) and the learner. How does it change the way we do things in the classroom and learn both inside and outside school? How can it be used in a way that serves our needs, rather than make us a slave to it?

Tell us about your ideas about and experiences with technology–computers, electronics, toys, display devices, and such–in and out of the classroom. What are your concerns and your expectations, your fears and your hopes, when faced with technology?

    Technology in teaching and learning–

    There often has been debate amonst teachers why tech–can chalk and board be replaced…
    there is nothing wrong in holding on to one’s roots and conventional ways till they are helping us to grow.

    Imagine if our mothers had not accepted this change and still stuck on to the earthen oven or the kerosene stove..or we still had to spin to wear clothes or grind wheat before could bake—

    Life without technology seems impractical and impossible…If our heads nod in affirmation ,i guess we can keep them down in shame that how quickly we have separated education from life ,thus this question.

    Technology is an aid an assistance, technology is not to be confused with teaching ever….
    time has come with reforms that are revolutionaising education to abreast our teaching methods abreast with technology so that we can cater to the change and create an environment where learning actually happens..

    Happy surfing
