The study focused on the rationale use of technology that is widely spreading around the world. Educational technology is significant in the learning and teaching process. The significance of the developed game-based courseware was to provide instruction and self-drill-and-practice to understand the computer system servicing terms and concepts. This interactive courseware is an additional innovation that will significantly help in the learning and teaching process. The conceptual framework of the study used to organize and varied literature which establishes the scope of education and principles of game-based courseware. The researcher utilized a questionnaire as the primary research instrument. The weighted mean and the standard deviation are used to determine the acceptability of the courseware. To adopt the opportunities offered by developed game-based courseware, it is essential to focus on lessons learned in Computer System Servicing. Features such as peer to peer learning and camaraderie between learners and educators have been found significant in traditional lessons and converted to educational games, as modern technologies move into the informative mainstream. Additional research into the effects and development of game-based approach courseware to classify the role of teachers as facilitators in the game-based approach of learning can establish ways to develop and create educational practices that better engage and motivate students.

The Many

As the use of technology has become more prevalent within the educational environment over the past decade, the emergence of the use of virtual manipulatives to support student learning in math has made transitioning to technology-infused math instruction unavoidable. Students in rural areas, however, have tended to receive far less technology-infused instruction due to the many challenges faced by rural schools that can adversely affect academic opportunities and disrupt equity in learning and teaching. In the current paper, we report on a classroom study conducted to examine whether the previously proven effects of concrete manipulatives can carry over into those of virtual manipulatives when teaching math fact fluency in multiplication and explored the potential for virtual manipulatives in rural classrooms from the teacher’s perspective.  Quantitative and qualitative results both indicated a promising potential for usage of virtual manipulatives, with meaningful implications for practitioners. The educational implications for designing and planning effective instruction incorporating virtual manipulatives are discussed.

The usage of ICT in the teaching process was a recommendation and an opportunity to innovate and actualize it until only a few months ago. The inevitable change caused by the unexpected circumstances triggered by Covid-19 brought all teachers into a situation where there was no room for consideration and no option to avoid the use of modern technology for learning and teaching purposes. Taking into account current situation that indicates the need for integration ICT into the teaching process, the aim of this paper was to analyze the relevant research, to point out the inevitability of providing additional support to teachers for the use of ICT in teaching. Accordingly, the research objectives was: pedagogical significance and contribution of ICT integration in the teaching process, the importance of the role of teachers in the process of ICT integration in teaching, as well as potential obstacles and difficulties that teachers may face in using ICT in teaching process. The obtained results can contribute to a more comprehensive view of the problems that teachers could face in the implementation of ICT in teaching, which would allow the determination of directions that would affect changes in their opinion related to acceptance and promotion of learning in ICT environment, as well as advantages to innovate teaching process by using ICT in teaching.

Surprising Finding

The last decade has seen phenomenal growth in the use of technology and information systems in the field of accounting. In response to this change, many colleges and universities have added a concentration in Accounting Information Systems (AIS) to their accounting programs. This paper describes the processes followed by one comprehensive university to introduce and later revise an AIS concentration program. A surprising finding of the revision process was an unexpected role of the AIS courses in the alumnis career development, -- a finding which was uncovered only by an innovative investigative step of the review and revision process. In light of the results, a model is offered to assist other institutions in improving their curriculum development (and review) process.

Abstract. Speaking skill is essential in language learning and teaching process because the goal of learning a foreign language is to be able to communicate using the target language. Fluency is one of the leading criteria that the students should accomplish in speaking skill. However, most of EFL students tend to be more nervous if they speak English, and this will impact their fluency. The objective of the research is to investigate how questioning gives an impact for students’ fluency in academic speaking class. The researchers used narrative inquiry to collect and process the data using Photovoice. The participants of this research were 12 university students. The finding shows that the use of questioning can develop students’ speaking fluency in academic speaking class. As the implication, teachers can give questions followed with feedback to enhance the students’ fluency. Keywords: fluency, speaking skill, questioning, photovoice.

Role Of Teachers

This chapter focuses on aspects that contribute to successful online learning in the Skills for Tertiary Education Preparatory Studies (STEPS) bridging program at CQUniversity in Australia. The program, which aims to instill the aptitudes, values and attitudes for effective university study in interrupted adult learners, has been running for 22 years and has had an online component for off campus students since 2006. Among the challenges involved in developing the online program have been promoting the value of critical reflection, recognizing the importance of learning as process to complement a focus on learning as product, and configuring an effective constructive alignment between factors shaping the learning and teaching process. The role of teachers’ reflective practices and students’ use of an online discussion forum in meeting these challenges is explored.

In a study found there were three factors that caused the emergence of radicalism in Indonesia. First, radicalism develops at the global level. Both Wahhabism is spread and the third is poverty. Now a days, radicalism has been spread out in Indonesia. It has to be prohibited by anti-radicalism education. Anti-radicalism education can be preventive and anticipative effort for terorism and radicalism expansion. It will done by put anti-radicalism volues for student through learning and teaching process. In Islam concept, there is interdiction for killing and vandalism. On the contrary, Islam learns us for loving peaple/each other. It has realized on subject lesson. Anti-racalism education prosecutes youth generation to respect differentiation, to love each other, to hate vandalism and dissension. Thus, it can discontinue radicalism and terorism in Indonesia. The anthropicity of radicalism can be done through the path of the government's role, the role of religious institutions and education, the role of civil society, some critical issues, welfare approaches, the role of deradicalization, rehabilitation and reintegration.   Keywords: anti-radicalism, education, Indonesia

The use of technology to address educational reforms has contributed largely to increasing the academic performance. The study was conducted to determine the utilization and equivalence of the DTI PCPS project Batch 4to the academic performance of the recipient schools of Zamboanga del Sur. It employed the descriptive design. A validated research survey questionnaire was used. Descriptive statistics such as frequency count, percentages, and weighted mean were used. The results revealed that both teachers and students “rarely” used Microsoft Office applications, educational games, and Internet applications. In terms of ICT knowledge level, both teachers and students manifested “advanced” in the PC basics, MS Word, and Internet applications and “intermediate” in MS Excel and MS PowerPoint. The academic performance of the recipient schools, as manifested in the MPS, revealed that there was an increase within the three school years of implementation (2010-2013). The study concludes that utilization of the computers granted from the DTI PCPS Batch 4 project facilitates learning positively. The computers granted were inadequate, and computer education was integrated with the curriculum. Hence, the study theorizes that academic performance of students at the secondary levels can be optimized by integrating ICT into the curriculum. Keywords - Educational management, utilization, equivalence, academic performance,IPO model, descriptive design, Philippines

In our eagerness to embrace the virtues of the “new,” we sometimes fail to critically examine the a prioris of the thing we are extolling—which, in the case of this book, is the use of technology in music learning and teaching. Advocates of technology use in the field usually begin by raising relevant issues based on personal but localized narratives. Although this is a good place to start—people rarely argue for change not grounded in their own experiences—building arguments for technology use requires a nuanced interpretation of what technology in music learning and teaching means to and for practitioners and researchers in specific local contexts. How does technology’s evolution from “thing” to “thing and place” change our perceptions of its use(s) in music learning and teaching? How do the roles of local context, cultural assumptions, and musical genre fit into a discussion of what constitutes technology and technology in music education?

<p>The problem in this analysis is to see how the forms and roles of psychpragmatics analysis in the learning and teaching process speak both oral and written. When oral and written speeches are triggered by psychological aspects, they are referred to as psychopragmatics. The purpose of this analysis is to see the extent to which psychopragmatic fundamentalists can play a role in the language learning and teaching process, both oral and written. The theory in this analysis uses the theory of Revita et al., (2019). The method used is the method suggested by Sudaryanto (1993). The results of this analysis indicate that the role of psychopathology for the process of learning and oral language teaching and writing has a major influence on the desired process and results. Psychopragmatics emphasizes the process of producing language produced when someone speaks both oral and written so that it will also affect the results or speech expected by speakers in the language.</p>

Earlier diagnosis and longer working careers is resulting in more individuals being identified as having Mild Cognitive Impairment or Early Onset Dementia (MCI/EOD) when they are still in the workforce. While there is growing interest in the dementia research community and beyond to develop technologies to support people with dementia, the use of technology for and by people with MCI/EOD in the workplace has had very little attention. This paper presents a two-part study involving interviews and participatory sessions to begin to understand the workplace experiences and the role of technology among people living with MCI/EOD. We present our findings from working with seven people with MCI/EOD and two care partners to explore technology design. Our results indicate several similarities as well as a few differences between MCI/EOD and later-onset dementia with respect to challenges using technology and design considerations for supporting engagement and use of technology. Lessons learned through the process of working with people with MCI/EOD through participatory methods is presented along with recommendations to foster an inclusive, respectful, and empowering experience for participants with MCI/EOD.
