At my young age, I can’t understand such topics easier but by the use of chalkboard, ideas and concepts are being stated clearly and are explained well by the teacher.

Visual Aids (Pictures, charts, drawing and flashcards)

It makes learning more meaningful. It helps me understand ideas through seeing things visually by any kind of visual aids like pictures, charts and drawings. It makes me interested and enjoyable to the topic. It also improve me through different exercises by the use of flashcards and others.

College

BlackboardVisual Aids/ LCD Projector

BlackboardIdeas and concepts are not

easily be understood without the use of blackboard. I proved it because in every teaching-learning process the use of this very common educational technology is always present.

Visual aids(models, mock-ups, charts, photographs, still drawings and etc.)

It is good to see and experience things through the use of different visual aids like models and mock-ups where I can learn from real things through imitation but with reality and ideality.On the other hand, I can say that this helps me enjoy learning because of showing pictures and videos that helps me understand facts and ideas clearly and vividly. And by experiencing to use it, I can able to benefit from it and use it also in the near future when I’m in the field of teaching.

I have realized that in my learning endeavor, the presence of the different kinds of educational technology with the teacher’s guidance helps me a lot. Without this, learning will not be effective, easy, meaningful and interactive. And as I go on through my life, when I’m in the field of teaching, I am free to use it in imparting knowledge to my students, help and teach them and affective them positively.
