day 14 reflection
Using technology makes us save time, share data, and give more motivation. Students can enjoy activities and enhance their self learning. However, there is a consideration of fair use of technology. If we do not know the clear guideline as a teacher, students may choose easy ways to get some data even though it is not fair. Students are mirror of our teaching style. Their improvement is also affected bythe way of thinking. So, as a christian teacher, we should consider the honesty first. Teach them the way of honesty and courtesy in using data. I want them to know this is same in the class activities, too. Ethical issues: fair use, keep privacy, do not hurt other in free speech, and do not try piracy. These all should be considered by teachers and these should betaught them at the beginning time.
I reminded teacher’s responsibility when I saw the web site of Khan Academy. He showed his love and passion about education in this website. I appreciate his passion to help others. It reminds me to educate students to be a useful person, an unselfich person, and a person who has a dream. In this class, I really experienced in this class students can learn and improve skills through authentic project.

How can we use technology in constructivism?
Teachers always concern students in planning stage: students’ needs, interest, motivation and background. To build student’s own learning is the main goal of teaching.An important component of constructivist theory is to focus a child’s education on authentic tasks. Teachers give project as portfolio. Students can select important things and include it. They can improve their critical thinking through this sorting process.
Technology, can, however, be used effectively in many ways, some of which are described in this paper. Barr’s (1990) five goals essential to meaningful educational reform apply here. He states that learning should be more:
- independent
- individualized
- interactive
- interdisciplinary, and
- intuitive.

2. The role of teacher is important in technology enhanced education. This is from http://ejite.isu.edu/Volume2No1/nanjappa.htm
The Role of the Teacher in Technology Enhanced Environments
The role of the teacher as a facilitator is seen as most important in a constructivist context (Witfelt, 2000; Richards, 1998). Within a constructivist classroom, the teacher engenders social and intellectual climates, where collaborative and cooperative learning methods are supported. In parallel, technology-enhanced classrooms tap constructivist strategies (Jonassen, 1999), arranging problem-based projects where students actively construct knowledge, linking knew knowledge with previous knowledge.
In non-traditional classrooms such as the open/global classroom (Walker, 2000; Witfelt, 2000), the role and responsibilities of the teacher have changed. The teacher, as an agent, has to constantly update information and technology for making learning authentic and relevant. For example, while developing a course module for teachers and taxonomy for teacher competencies in the use of educational multimedia, Witfelt (2000) observed that it was important to combine several theories such as constructivism, postmodernism, situated intelligence and multiple intelligences. However, the theoretical framework would be constructivist in nature with the teacher assuming the role of the facilitator, providing an environment for spontaneous research, understanding the social and collaborative nature of learning, helping children construct knowledge and initiate problem-based, project-oriented work. With this transition in roles and responsibilities, Witfelt (2000) listed new teacher competencies in constructivist contexts that include supervisor qualifications, supporter and facilitator of students’ work, advisor and subject-matter expert, inspirer and encourager, arbiter at group discussions, critic in mobilizing greater effort when objectives are not being met, and evaluator to improve general learning capacities of students.

How to be a server
Teachers can control students’ computers in control of a server computer. The server computer has a unique ip adress which students use this ipadress to share the data from tea hers. If a teacher does not know how to be a server computer, the computer in the classroom is useless. Knowing this step is useful in planning stage. this article will be helpful to teachers if they are beginners.

If you’ve ever been curious about the process, or have ever wanted to know some of the specific mechanisms that allow you to surf the Internet, then read on. In this article, you will learn how Web servers bring pages into your home, school or office. Let’s get started!
2. How to Build a Server
Level of difficulty: Intermediate
A server acts as a central point of activity for other computers. The server computer also provides services to computers connected to it. Setting up a server on your house or in the office is useful especially if you work on different computers and you want to access files from multiple computers. Servers also aid in backing up of files on a single location.
Materials Needed:
- Computer that runs on Windows Vista Operating System
Step 1Make sure that the computer that you are going to use as the server computer is in good condition as it will be constantly turned on.Step 2Turn on the computer that you are going to set up as the server. Log in as the computer’s administrator. Step 3Join a workgroup. Do this by clicking on the “Start” button on the desktop. Select “Control Panel” from the menu and click “System and Maintenance”. A separate window will appear. Click “System”. A panel will appear with the settings for the Domain, Workgroup, and Computer Name. Step 4On the panel, click “Change Settings”. Select the “Computer Name” tab on the window and click “Change”. Step 5Locate the “Member of” window. Click on the “Workgroup” option and type the name of the workgroup that you want to join. Type “MSHOME” as Windows computers are already set up with a networking group named “MSHOME”. Reboot the computer and log in as the computer’s administrator.Step 6Configure the settings of the network by clicking on the “Start” button, choose “Control Panel”, and click on “Network and Internet”. Select “Set Up File Sharing”. A new window will appear. Select “Customize” and under the “Location Type”, select “Private”. Close the window.Step 7Configure the server computer’s settings by clicking on the “Start” button. Select “Control Panel” and choose “Network and Internet” from the icons. Select “Set Up File Sharing”. Locate the “Sharing and Discovery” panel and make sure that the option for network discovery is on. Step 8To enable the server computer to share files and printer access, go the “Set Up File Sharing” panel and choose “Turn On” for the following items: File Sharing, Printer Sharing, and Public Folder Sharing. Step 9The basic functions of a server can already be done by the computer. Check if the server works by trying to access files using a different computer.

Internet and intranet.
Internet and intranet has similar spelling, but they are different. If you are confused them, let’s see together. These articles are helpful to understand the difference as a beginner or young children.
1. This is from http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_differences_between_Internet_and_Intranet_and_Extranet
There’s one major distinction between an intranet and the Internet: The Internet is an open, public space, while an intranet is designed to be a private space. An intranet may be accessible from the Internet, but as a rule it’s protected by a password and accessible only to employees or other authorized users.
From within a company, an intranet server may respond much more quickly than a typical Web site. This is because the public Internet is at the mercy of traffic spikes, server breakdowns and other problems that may slow the network. Within a company, however, users have much more bandwidth and network hardware may be more reliable. This makes it easier to serve high bandwidth content, such as audio and video, over an intranet.

Difference Between Internet and Intranet
• Categorized under Technology, internet
In the information age that we live in today, the speed at which information can travel inside a company would often indicate the productivity of that company. It is often necessary to create an environment where the flow of data is unimpeded and the intended recipient gets it instantaneously. Computers make this possible and there are multiple ways to implement such a network.
An Intranet is a computer network that is designed to work like the internet but in a much smaller scale and is restricted only to the employees of the company. It is possible to run FTP, HTTP, and mail servers in the intranet that is independent and inaccessible from the internet without proper authorization. This allows the employees to send progress reports to their manager even when they cannot meet in person. Workers could also work collaboratively on a certain project while keeping their paperwork properly synchronized. It is often necessary to have access to the internet from within your intranet, which is why intranets are placed behind a firewall. Some companies even deploy two firewalls and place some services inside the DMZ in order to raise their security further.
An intranet, although very helpful, wouldn’t be very effective if it is totally removed from the internet. The internet is the massive network of computers from all around the world. It allows people to virtually any point in the world at a very minimal cost. Services like Email and VoIP has allowed many people to keep in touch despite geographical locations and time zones.
Being connected to the internet, a company can have their people in the field or those who are working at home to still be able to do what they would usually do when they are inside the office. They can connect to services inside the intranet and submit their work or contact their coworkers and superiors. They can even call online if their office supports IP-PABX systems.
// //
The Intranet and the Internet are two domains that are very alike but are often segregated in order to maintain security. If properly configured and guarded, an Intranet that is connected to the Internet could raise your company’s productivity by leaps and bound; not to mention cutting down the cost of traditional communications. It could also open the door to malicious people who can do major damage or even steal confidential company data if done haphazardly. It should be up to the management to make sure that all precautions are taken.
