3) In educational setting, discuss how technology enhances the teaching and learning environment. What do the viewpoints of Dewey....

Over time the learner has been the explorer of knowledge. In the 21st century challenges and demands are expanding and changing again. The diversity of needs in community compelled the schools to devise new ways(ex.using technology) to prepare children effectively for the challenges of the 21st century.
Today, all most people including children can use and used to technology such as computer, digital camera, camcoder and so on. In dance part, many choreographers and dance educators have investigated methods for implementing computer technology. In view of these perspective, technology presents new methods for creating, instructing, and assessing dance as well as opportunitiesto expand dance resources and redefine the learning process.


According to Dewey, neither traditional nor progressive education alone is enough, a key element must be explored, the human experience. To effectively educate and develop a plan by subject matter, an educator must understand that each experience a student has will influence his/her future for the better or for worse. A key element that should work hand-in-hand with incorporating both traditional and progressive learning is the student's past experiences,both positive and negative. A student's past experience will have an effect on their present experience which in turn will determine their future contribution and impact to society.
Moreover through John Dewey, I felt that I will have to learn and study more for my future students and me and more deeply thought about what is the role of teacher? For Dewey, education is life itself. Subject matter is also everything that a learner has experienced while he lives, of which academic knowledge is located in its center. Dewey thought that education of subject matter should have relation to human total experience.

Base on those Dewey's theory and technology enhances, the classroom better prepare students for their future as contributors to society; utilizing a student's past and present experiences including technology experiences to help tailor the appropriate lessons and tools.

For Example lesson;
through Youtube video clip teachers can using dance resources that can be yoga, hiphop dance, tap dance... etc. for students and also studetns can learn various dances by themselves.
