Educ 638 Reflective Blog
This is a short blog about some of the reading the Picciano (2011) text, chapter 7-10 that are apart of liberty university's Leadership in Educational Technology Class #638. We were to reflect upon how this class and these chapters effected our prior thinking and how it aided what we are currently teaching or managing. I am reminded of the Bible verse that says in my English that all thing work together for the good of those that are called according to the purpose of God. I.m so sure of this because I can see this class being used for God.s purpose in my life and especially in those that we are teaching. Whether it be synchronous or asynchronous, blended or online live classes, they all can work for God's calling in Christ Jesus. Most of what is now being taught in this class pertains to the fullfilling of individual needs to model Christlike learning and teaching.Curriculum integration is a big factor in online education says Hall (2008). this all seems to happen better in 21st century technology and E-learning.Technology is helping to transform African education. Kiplagat (2014) "When students have access to information they have access to possibilities they did'nt have before."
