Reflection Entry 14

http://www.ifets.info/journals/3_2/tam.html

Tam's article discusses the technological piece with the role of the learner. She mentions how computers were effective in developing higher order thinking skills. In addition, she notes that technology tools can aid in learning, and that they can help learners get relevant information and provide opportunities for the learner to look at a variety of viewpoints so they can construct their own knowledge. I found her article helpful because it discussed how the learner can use the technology instead of the instructor, which I appreciate because as a teacher, I want my students to use technology and whatever they can to help them understand.
