Description

In this assignment you will write a paper that proposes an innovative technology-focused model of education that embraces traditional strengths while preparing students for future roles. Prior to completing this assignment review the Educause (n.d.) webpage and read Trundle (2012).

Instructions: To complete this assignment, the following should be included at a minimum:

  • A proposal for an educational model which is innovative and technology-focused, embraces traditional strengths of classroom teaching, and prepares students for future roles. This model should focus on the Higher Education setting.
  • An overview of at least three existing practices that should be maintained within your model.
  • An overview of at least three new and emerging technology that should be included within your model.
  • A presentation of at least three innovative assessment methods for assessing learning outcomes.
  • A discussion on at least three strategies that prepare learners for roles that may not yet exist.

Innovative Technology-Focused Model of Education – Outline
Outline
Topic: Innovative Technology-Focused Model of Education
Introduction
I.

The education sector has been experiencing significant changes worldwide due to the
increased advancements in technology.

II.

Everything and anything in the sector is, directly and indirectly, interlinked with
technology.

III.

According to Almarabeh and Majdalawi (2018), across the world, there are thousands of
higher education settings and schools which offer online classes and monitoring student's
work with efficient and effective methods.

IV.

This paper proposes the Technology Acceptance Model as an innovative technologyfocused educational model since it embraces traditional strengths while preparing
students for future roles.

A Proposal for an Educational Model
I.

Over the years, different studies have tried to integrate various technologies in learning,
such as mobile learning, cloud-based E-learning, and E-learning (Ahmad et al., 2020).

II.

As a result, the proposed innovative technology-focused education model is Technology
Acceptance Model (TAM) (Granić, & Marangunić, 2019).

III.

Being an educational model, TAM relates to information systems theory which deals
with the prototypes of how the end-users accept or access the use of technology.

IV.

In most cases, TAM is more often about research in an organization where a dedicated
team spends time exploring the acceptance of the new technology.

2
V.

TAM is a well-validated prototype designed to research and explore for a better
prediction on the take of adopting a particular technology.

VI.

According to Bahati and Sood (2016), TAM has two primary components, Perceived
Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU).

VII.

According to Joo et al. (2018), the technology acceptance model impacts Higher
Education settings differently.

An Overview of Three Existing Practices That Should be Maintained
I.

Several practices in Higher Education have been widely tested and shown to be beneficial
for college students from different backgrounds, which much be maintained within my
model. These practices include
a. Research,
b. Teaching or learning, and
c. Curricular aspects.

An Overview of Three New and Emerging Technology That Should be Included in the
Model
I.

Today there are several new and emerging technology which must be included the
technology acceptance model.
a. One of the technology is electronic textbooks.
b. The second technology is Simulation Technology.
c. The thirds technology is computerized grading.

Innovative Assessment Methods for Assessing Learning Outcomes
I.

Innovative assessment approaches in assessing learning are features of what defines a
modern classroom.

3
a. Analyzing students' work is one of the assessment methods.
b. Another method is the use of Round Robin Charts.
c. The third innovative assessment approach is Three-Way Summaries.
Discussion on Strategies That Prepare Learners for Roles that do not exist
I.

There are several approaches in Higher Education settings that may prepare learners for
roles that do not exist.
a. The first strategy is familiarizing them with how machines work and
communicate (Elmore, 2019).
b. Another strategy is fostering a culture of resilience and diversity when teaching
them.
c. The third approach is getting ready for artificial intelligence (AI).

Conclusion
I.

In conclusion, the future of Higher Education in all institutions will be distinct and
different very soon due to the continued and ever-changing technological development.

II.

Issues such as using online platforms to replace classrooms and physical educators are
among the expected changes.

III.

Internet, electronic devices, and Cloud Computing ...
