Resultaten

In this unit, we will demonstrate how technology can contribute to teaching, learning, administration and professional development.

By the end of this unit, you should be able to use ICT to:

• add value to your lesson planning
• make lesson content, more professional
• provides learners with tools to demonstrate what they have learned and demonstrate new competencies
• complete educator administrative duties
• connect with other educators and pursue further professional development

In deze unit laten we zien hoe technologie kan bijdragen aan lesgeven, leren, administratie en professionele ontwikkeling.

Aan het einde van deze unit moet je in staat zijn om ICT te gebruiken om:

• waarde toe te voegen aan je lesplanning
• lesinhoud professioneler te maken
• leerlingen hulpmiddelen aan te reiken om te demonstreren wat ze hebben geleerd en nieuwe competenties aan te tonen
• administratieve taken van docenten uit te voeren
• in contact te komen met andere leerkrachten en verdere professionele ontwikkeling na te streven

The internet and internet-enabled technologies are continuing to develop at a very fast pace. This has many benefits, but it also changes the way in which students learn, communicate and interact. Learners are keen and avid users of the internet and mobile technologies. They are seen as ‘digital natives’, always surrounded by technologies. There are many social, educational and economic benefits for learners in using ICTs but learners do need to understand what is acceptable and appropriate behaviour in an online society.

On completion of this unit of study you will be able to:

• Model and instill in students appropriate behavior when communicating online, i.e. netiquette
• Identify digital citizenship knowledge, skills and values
• Design a lesson that incorporates digital citizenship competencies.

Het internet en op het internet gebaseerde technologieën blijven zich razendsnel ontwikkelen. Dit heeft veel voordelen, maar het verandert ook de manier waarop leerlingen leren, communiceren en met elkaar omgaan. Leerlingen zijn fervente en enthousiaste gebruikers van het internet en mobiele technologieën. Ze worden gezien als 'digital natives', altijd omringd door technologieën. Het gebruik van ICT heeft veel sociale, educatieve en economische voordelen voor leerlingen, maar leerlingen moeten wel begrijpen wat aanvaardbaar en gepast gedrag is in een online maatschappij.

Na afronding van deze onderwijseenheid bent u in staat om:

• Modelleer en breng leerlingen passend gedrag bij wanneer ze online communiceren, d.w.z. netiquette
• Kennis, vaardigheden en waarden met betrekking tot digitaal burgerschap identificeren
• Een les ontwerpen die de competenties van digitaal burgerschap omvat.

There are many different processes and phenomena that emit electromagnetic radiation. Humans have taken advantage of many of these processes to develop technologies that use electromagnetic radiation.

The beauty of a coral reef, the warm radiance of sunshine, the sting of sunburn, the X-ray revealing a broken bone, even microwave popcorn—all are brought to us by electromagnetic waves. The list of the various types of electromagnetic waves, ranging from radio transmission waves to nuclear gamma-ray (γ-ray) emissions, is interesting in itself.

Even more intriguing is that all of these different phenomena are manifestations of the same thing—electromagnetic waves (see Figure 15.1). What are electromagnetic waves? How are they created, and how do they travel? How can we understand their widely varying properties? What is the relationship between electric and magnetic effects? These and other questions will be explored.

Photoelectric materials emit electrons when they absorb light of a high-enough frequency.

Outcomes

By the end of this course you will:

• Be able to define the 'reflection of light'
• Understand the difference between reflected and incident rays
• Be familiar with the two types of reflection viz.: regular and irregular reflection
• Have an understanding of the laws of reflection
