Integrating technology with instruction means using learning technologies to introduce, reinforce, or supplement ideas and extend skills. True integration occurs when student technology use is woven into teaching patterns and software extends student tools. There is no integration if technology is only used for rest periods or solely to teach computer skills. For integration to occur, technology must be planned to fit into the learning process and address specific instructional issues through changed instructional strategies.

Educational Technology Lecture 3
Basic Concepts on Integrating Technology in Instruction Integrating technology with teaching means the use of learning technologies to  Introduce (a discovery),  Reinforce (an existing idea),  Supplement (absorption)  extending the skills
The difference between the classrooms of exemplary users of technology and technology users is the way their classes are conducted. In the exemplary classrooms, student use of computers is woven integrally into the patterns of teaching; software is a natural extension of student tools.
There is NO INTEGRATIVE PROCESS in letting the students play computer games to give them a rest period during classes. NEITHER is there INTEGRATION, if the teacher merely teaches students computer skills.
Manifestations of Learning through I.T.  There's a change in the way classes are traditionally conducted.  The quality of instruction is improved to a higher level in such a way that could not have been achieved without educational technology.  There is planning by the teacher on the process of determining how and when technology fits into the learning process.
Manifestations of Learning through I.T.  The teacher sets instructional strategies to address specific instructional issues/problems.  The use of technology provides the opening of opportunities to respond to these instructional issues/problems.  In sum, technology occupies a position (is a simple or complex way) in the instructional process.

Editor's Notes

  1. It is not different with letting the kids watch you dance is different from teaching them how to.
  2. Unorthodox Methods becomes available. If assessed, the results of such methods promotes higher thinking unachievable without using edtech
