Integrating technology in teaching.

Hello everyone. I hope that you and your families are well.
This is my first blog.
First of all, I would like to say that integrating technology in teaching and learning is a great way to improve them. In our current situation it seems like online teaching is the only way teachers and students may keep in touch. This is my first blog, but this is not the first time our professors use online methods for us. Last year our professor Ogerta introduced us to 'Classroom App' and we used it most of the time and it was highly productive. This blog seems to be a little bit different, because we had to create it in our own and I encountered some difficulties in getting adapted to it. I did not know how to follow my classmates and also how to subscribe someone's blog by my email. I searched on YouTube, but there were only videos of how to make others subscribe our blog.
I am sure that we will solve this.
As for the importance of this blog, I may say that it can be really effective if it is used properly.
Here are some of its benefits, according to my opinion.
It is the only way of teaching for this situation which we are in. It will help us to keep in touch with our professor and to accomplish our assignments in time. 
Apart from this situation it saves time and it can be really comfortable.
Another advantage may be the fact that we are also able to see classmates' posts and to comment on each other's post. It generates peer discussion and knowledge exchange.
Technology-based language instruction can be as effective as teacher-delivered instruction. I can say that this type of learning and technology in general are not really used in our faculty. Teacher use technology mostly by generating power point presentations and there are just a few teachers who use online teaching platforms as well.
This blog may have also disadvantages.
We sometimes get confused, because as we all know, face to face conversation is more understandable and people sometimes misunderstand each-other when they communicate online.

As you can see, I am more pro of using this kind of teaching in our faculty.  Technology is part of our lives and we cannot exclude it. We should take its positive part and use it for our necessities and works. I think professors should use it more, because they have the tendency to use the traditional method of teaching (not all of them) by using only the blackboard in class. They may bring videos to us, they may use more online teaching, they may all bring power point presentations since the visualization helps students memorize things better. I am really excited that our faculty has involved a whole subject about how to make technology part of our teaching and learning.
I read the articles about integrating technology in teaching and what attracted my attention was that: digital multimedia technologies were used to make access to learning materials more efficient than print media or audio recorders, because multimedia presentations can create stronger memory links than a single medium alone.
Internet enables the learner to access authentic news and literature in the target language since the information in internet is widespread nowadays and it teaches us how to be selective in order to choose the appropriate information. 
Technology develops reading and writing skills since we can read online magazines and electronic books, we can be part of email groups or blogs or chat groups and so on.
Since students are exposed to the internet, they love technology being part of their learning. Technology helps students who are not very attentive in class to engage in activities . Technology is changing and  improving as the time passes by. We should not only use it to communicate,  but also to broaden our knowledge and to improve our way of teaching and learning.
Of course, using technology may have its difficulties and problems, but we should take the best from it.
