The world is currently undergoing continuous innovations and inventions. Such kind of transformations has made it to be pronounced a global village. With the increased technological innovations and inventions, all the sectors of the economy, including education, have considered implementing the use of technology as one of the current trends. Being one of the aspiring tutors, I am committed to use technology in the course of my professional practice as a teacher. At the moment, am familiar with basic computing and am in the process of advancing this skill for my future application.
Technology is one of the main cornerstones and building blocks for the current generation. Every kid of this generation has some levels of technological literacy. The implication of this is that the world has become digitized and will even develop further as time goes by. Given this case, there is a need for me to sharpen my already acquired skills in IT. In this case, I am expected to familiarize myself with applications such as PowerPoint. The latter stated component will be suitable in the course of my content delivery. Apart from that, am also expected to be familiar with Microsoft Excel. This will help me in keeping records of my students.
Conversely, the global corona pandemic has been an eye-opener to me as far as the importance of technology is concerned. In the face of the current health crisis, it is evident that most institutions of learning have resorted to doing online classes. This is one of the ways in which the WHO directive can be observed. To enhance this, learning has aggressively incorporated technology and this ranges from zoom class meetings to online delivery of content through teleconferencing. Such kind of usage has been found to be so instrumental as it has ensured that the learning process is not paralyzed. Given this case, I am committed to ensuring that I sharpen my skills in technology, as this is the only way that will make me relevant in the job market.
