MY CONTRIBUTIONS TO INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY IN THE 21st CENTURY

My contribution to Instructional Technology in the 21st Century would certainly begin with myself, in my teaching, and in my advocacy.

First, I need to finish this Master's Degree in Instructional Technology. By so doing, I strongly affirm my commitment to ensuring the effort to integrate technology in teaching.

Second, I will consistently utilize the appropriate technological tools that will enhance my teaching and my student's learning. I will persistently search for current updates of technology that are relevant to my teaching and make effort to apply them. Hence, I will be able to influence and encourage my students to using their technological know how as their learning tools. Hopefully, I will pass onto them a learning habit that will be used in the future. Therefore, I have trained active technology integrators in them.

Third, I will advocate for technology integration in teaching. I should set the example of making effective use of technology. I will support the my schools vision of technology integration. I will support and help my co-teachers who are struggling. I will encourage those teachers who are hesistant.

I will do the best of what is expected of me. For whatever I will do, I hope to become a "one little candle" that will make a difference in the lives of my students.
