USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN TEACHING-TEACHERS PERCEPTION

Technology integration in the classroom has become a crucial aspect of successful teaching. It’s triggered many researchers to analyze different aspects of such integration. This is because it allows students to find out more in less time and allows schools to specialise in global learning environments if used appropriately. Additionally, it may well be an efficient teaching tool when accustomed engage all students in the learning process. Research shows that there are increasing number of computers being employed reception and an increasing number of technological devices available to varsities. Research documented teachers’ use of computers for various purposes and objectives. The employment of instructional technologies in the classroom teaching and integration of the normal teaching with the technological advancement has the potential to assist the educators explain new concepts clearly, leading to better student understanding of the concepts being taught. During a survey conducted by the renowned students, to search out factors that facilitate technological skill of the teacher, teacher morale towards the duty, and perceived student learning in technology using classrooms found that teachers valued the utilization of technologies in school which it had a bearing on students’ content acquisition; the utilization of technology added to class performance. Achieving of this method of technology integration in the classroom teaching is more likely to require root when a range of instructional technologies are used during instruction; that's, technologies that yield hands-on experiences. Where resources are supplied for instructional use, teachers are expected to form use of them to support a smooth and meaningful flow of instruction and, consequently, promote the understanding of the content being taught. They're found in the student’s total continuum of experience, from the concrete to the abstract, both outside and inside the classroom. They supply means whereby teachers teach (make possible the conditions for learning) and students learn”. However, availability of instructional materials doesn't automatically mean that learning will occur.
