The obstacles of Information Technology in Educational Practice.

Posted by jefrey fabiosa ,

In promoting the advancement of technology in different part of the countries, the innovations become effective but the issues of not maximizing the use of technology remains as is. Below are the hindrances and obstacles of some country in promoting the technology that based on my observation.

1. Unclear or inadequate copyright law relating to crucial provisions such as fair use and educational use;
2. Extensive adoption of digital rights management technology to lock up content;
3. Practical difficulties obtaining rights to use content when licenses are necessary;
4. Undue caution by gatekeepers such as publishers or educational administrators.

Sub Topics: ( observations)

* Upon not having the copyright law, the way of maximizing the educational tool become slow because of prioritizing the non-sense advertisements and other non-related topic about education.
a. My suggestion with this is that they should be a space which educational contents are included.

* In some instances, traditional institutions are making their educational content available to the general public online. In other cases, individuals who may have no connection to formal academia can nonetheless engage in teaching and learning with one another through the use of new technology.
a. so, how can a remote area could maximize their educational practice if there is no connection in the internet and they can't even access.

* Next thing that I have observed is in line with the resources in the internet. Both sides are arguing about the publishing of the whole articles about their topics for the reason also that they much concern about that hackers who will copy all their articles. Because of this issues, they want to encrypt to the access so as not to hack their articles. So, the main point here is that how they could use the information of Information Technology if the obstacles of it is not giving the whole knowledge about Information Technology.
a. if one could allow to let just copy their works, maybe there is no problem in teaching I.T in education.

* In an article that I have read, for me it is an obstacle also if one school is not totally adapting the use of digital learning for the reason that it according to them, it would be more effective if a student would do the activity in actual so that they could easily understand the lessons or that activity they are performing.
a. for me in contrary, if they are not practicing the use of technology in education, they would spent more time in teaching and in learning. aside from that, if they portrays an exhibit, they could find it hard to understand because it is not actual but just a picture from the computer.

* One of the Institutions said that they will use face-to-face teaching as they know it is an effective way of developing their education.
a. in this way, the student could perform well and can submit the requirements on their studies.

*Lack of Workshops on Technological Literacy
a. even though there more teachers who knew on how to operate a computer, there is a problem in technological literacy because they are not knowledgeable enough when it comes to computer works and so, as I observed, how will they practice the use IT if they are lack of information about the usage of the computer.
b. i suggest that a teacher should be updated about the innovations of IT and keep in touch with the IT development because only their awareness would help them to overcome their obstacles.

* The next one is the problem of putting the methodologies in the contents.
a. Even though the teacher uses IT as an instruction, they could find it hard when it comes to formulating the topic about their lesson.
b. my suggestion is they should formulate a methodologies which thye think is compatible with their instructional contents.

* Problems in Funds.
a. it is hard for them to produce more computer because they lack of money to but some computers.

Conclusions:
It is important to know the advancement of technology so as not to be depart form the new generation. It is important also to be more aware to our environment. but what is important is to have balance in teaching in technology and in teaching practically.

ICT Policies and Strategies in New Zealand

The ICT strategy recognizes that to focus on technical skills alone is to limit the vision of ICT in education. Rather, the focus must be on extending and deepening educational experiences to work towards further developing an innovative and thriving society. as i observed the strategies of new zealand, I can say that the innovation of It is being took place. they emphasizes their economic growth, to improve their well-being, and to support sustainable development. In addition, the thing which New Zealand can be an effective country was having a capability to change the manner which they think will be the hindrance to their success and for instance, it focuses on hoe to be an independent person as well as how to change not only the lifestyle but also themselves. But whatever it takes, they must see to it that they are not abusing any resources for their own goods and benefits because as what I have observed, the New Zealand focuses on the improvement on their country but if we think about it, they could also harm or destroy the natural resources by means of research works and investigations.

Through this, the country of Australia was never been left by moern way of living at the same time of learning. Just like other countries that have mentioned, Australia also aims to have an effective strategy in teaching so they chose to use ICT as an innovative way of teaching. I can say that Australia has a good way in teaching for the reason that their all people may learn in an effective way.

I have observe that Philippines is making a way to improve, develop their styles, their way of living just like the other countries so that is why they created an enhancement to sustain this innovations. as a citizen in the same country, I can say that the government must help to promote the right way of learning the lessons and improving the curriculum.
