TTL1 Lesson 1

Introduction to Technology
for Teaching and Learning
Technology for teaching and learning refers to the use of
digital tools, resources, and platforms to enhance the
educational experience. With the rapid advancement of
technology, traditional methods of teaching have evolved,
integrating new digital approaches that benefit both
educators and learners. Here’s an overview of this dynamic
field:
1. What is Technology for Teaching and Learning?
• Technology for teaching and learning encompasses a
wide range of digital tools and applications used in
educational settings. These include:

Learning Management Systems (LMS): Platforms like


Moodle, Blackboard, or Canvas that allow for the
distribution of course materials, assignment submissions,
and communication between teachers and students.

3. Challenges in Integrating
Technology
Equity and Access: Not all students have the same access to the
technology, which can create disparities in learning opportunities.

Teacher Training: Educators need ongoing professional
development to effectively use technology in the classroom and
integrate it into their teaching methods.

realized-unless-teachers-are-prepared-to-use-it/
Distraction: While technology can enhance learning, it can also lead
to distractions if not properly managed.

about-technology-in-education/
Over-reliance on Technology: Excessive dependence on digital
tools may undermine traditional skills, such as handwriting and face-
to-face communication.
