A STUDY ON EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY IN TAJ INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE
Become a lecturer was my big dream since
i was young. however, at last..2012..my dream come true..i never imagined i would someday working as lecturer at TAJ International College (www.taj.edu.my). As a new lecturer in TIC, i always spend my countless hours to surveillance the TIC compound with the intent to familiar with my new working environment. From my observation, i found out that TIC has a potential to be a highest education learning center in Perak as well as in world. However, the mission can be achieve only after TIC can grab the opportunities in rapid development of technologies changes as to upgrade their facilities and education system.

From my observation, i found out that TIC has a potential to be a highest education learning center in Perak as well as in world. However, the mission can be achieve only after TIC can grab the opportunities in rapid development of technologies changes as to upgrade their facilities and education system.
For the past 4 months, i started interested to figure out vital things that can improve the efficiency in lecturing by using the latest technology. Even today, a person can get their degree by taking online classes and newspapers now have the ability to share stories with the world within minutes after a events occurs. However, can technology teach though? As computer continue to get not only smarter but also cheaper, it seems entirely possible that they could eventually replace teacher/ lecturer. Actually, computers and technology already serve as teaching aides. Over the next decade, it seem likely that computer will advance to the point of being able to have natural conversation Saeed Mubarak (2011).
I believe that if TIC could implement and maintaining these technologies advancement, definitely student will enjoys the learning process :
First, use the latest technologies as an instructional tool within current classroom setting. Instead of current practice using direct instruction as primary teaching method, lecturer will learn to implement technology into lesson plans moving forward by providing a greater range of educational resources. the students in classroom learning through online medium or learning through the use of a variety of educational software products. Lecturer will also learn to instruct using Smart Board technology as well as LCD projector systems. Myself personally quite surprise with the new system introduced on May 2012, called Learning Management System (LMS) which help the lecturer to deliver the lecture to student effectively.
With LMS, lecturer and student will learn how to use the Internet more effectively as both an additional resource and teaching tool in classroom. Lecturer will be able to lead students through research based projects or find educational games in which students can participate to review key material that they need to know. Lecturer also can create a class website for students to access from home or away from college. on a class website, lecturer can post such items as homework assignments, links to resources which students can use for class work, and upcoming test and quiz dates. This is also one way that lecturer can keep lines of communication open with the parents and guardians of the students. Lecturer cal also expect to take multiple courses about the field of online learning itself. If lecturer wanted to be able to instruct, assess and evaluate students in an online learning format, the Master's in Education Technology will show lecturer exactly how to do just that.
Second, technology is already on the brink of being able to communicate intelligently, such as in the case of Apple's Siri and IBM's watson. Apple has describe Siri as an "intelligent assistant" but developers should have added another feature to Sire: budding comedian. Apple iPhone 4s come with new upgrade to the iPhone line has one major draw Siri. the virtual assistance is practically an artificial intelligence. it can listen to our "natural language" question and respond like our own personal secretary. the software is capable you ask it, which is really nothing but amazing.Ask it to schedule an appointment an it will ask us what time and it will help us arrange it so that we don't have any conflicting meetings at that time.
Finally, lecturer can expert to take classes that cover current trends in educational technologies, so that lecturer can stay up to date with the latest developments in the field. Since technology is an ever-expanding field, lecturer may not even be aware of how technology can help make their job easier while keeping students engaged in the learning process.
