    The document discusses two insights gained from Module Four of the course. [1] Replication studies have shown that differentiation strategies used by teachers have not changed in 10 years, even though teachers with gifted education training use more strategies. This implies the need for more effective professional development. [2] When technology is properly integrated into curricula, it can positively impact student engagement and retention, though excessive gaming may cause issues. Interactive educational games can engage students throughout lessons. The document also discusses technologies used during the COVID-19 pandemic. Video conferencing platforms like Zoom and Ding Talk have enabled remote work and virtual meetings. This has helped reduce stress and allowed work/education to continue despite social distancing requirements.

    1.

    What have you learned in Part Four-Broadening the context and Learning Module

    4? Please share at least two insights

    The major insight drawn from Module Four is the replication study. According to a

    replication study, differentiation strategies used by instructors in classrooms have not changed

    over the past ten years. Compared to instructors who do not employ replication, teachers who use

    replication have more professional development experiences in gifted education, but these

    experiences do not seem to be reflected in the way they teach. Even if children only receive

    direct treatment for one hour each week, many teachers still believe that their gifted program

    meets the needs of their high ability/gifted students. This implies the need for more, longer, or

    diverse professional development experiences. Additionally, teachers need greater assistance and

    motivation to put the training into practice if the new insights about ways for satisfying the needs

    of capable children are to be applied. High ability/gifted students receive curricular adjustments

    more frequently from teachers who have had professional training in gifted education. This can

    be because they use the techniques in their classes to fulfill the coursework requirements for

    gifted education.

    The second lesson I took away from the session is that when technology is properly

    integrated into curricula, there is a growing opportunity to have a good effect on pupils and

    increase retention. Because excessive gaming might result in attention deficit disorder, teamwork

    and creativity are concepts that must be taught in the twenty-first century. Some pupils may not

    fully grasp the lesson in this case since they are so fascinated by technology. Teachers work hard

    to maintain their pupils' interest in the learning process. This change is brought about by a

    change in how teachers engage pupils, which influences their decision to teach novel ideas. It

    can be boring for a teacher to just deliver a lecture without any interaction or hands-on activities.
    Now, a teacher can use interactive educational games to engage pupils in learning throughout a

    lesson, a process known as gasification. Gasification is a teaching and learning strategy that

    encourages student learning. This has created a new space for instruction, learning, evaluations,

    and progressions.

    2. During the COVID-19 pandemic, what technologies have been applied in your

    working (or studying) environment? What do you think about them?

    Numerous social and economic challenges, including student debt, online learning, the

    Internet, and disability services, have gained attention because to technology. In the face of the

    pandemic threat, technology has provided a means and a solution to continue the quest for lives

    of people and the education of students and workers. By developing platforms that enable virtual

    meetings, new technology has reduced the stress of communication, particularly amid the

    ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. These platforms provide features that make video conferencing

    efficient and engaging, such Zoom and Ding Talk. I now know that people are now required to

    work from home due to social distancing laws and the coronavirus's serious threats to the

    business world. The module aids the learner in balancing the pros and disadvantages of various

    platforms and the aspects that should be given priority when selecting a platform. Employees

    that operate remotely imply that they no longer need to speak in-person at a convenient office.

    Instead, videoconferencing equipment enables people to work comfortably at home. Companies

    must adapt online techniques to continue serving their clients and holding meetings due to the

    restriction of movements and physical contact to stop the virus from spreading.
