"Integration of Technology in Primary Science Teaching". What exactly does it mean to you? Well, let me tell you.
Before that, let me ask you another question. What is technology? Professor Dr. Rohaida asked us the same question during the first class. We all gave many different answers since the word 'technology' itself has many definitions. It can be defined as the application of practical sciences to industry or commerce. It can also be defined as the methods and tools that a society has developed in order to facilitate the solution of its practical problems. Basically, it makes our life easier.
There has been some talk about people getting tired of technology. Well, they should consider the possibility of living in a cave! Technology has become, within a very short time, one of the basic building blocks of modern society. Take Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for example. Even though Facebook does not really benefit people in principle, it still, so to speak, comes before food and sleep to some people.
Back to the question. What exactly does this course mean? In aswering the question, we have to define technology in educational context.
