TECHNOLOGY AND TECHNIQUE: AN EDUCATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

ABSTRACT

Today, technology is developing very fast around the world.  This technological development (hardware and software) affects our life.  There is a relationship among technology, society, culture, organization, machines, technical operation, and technical phenomenon. Educators should know this relationship because technology begins to affect teaching and learning facilities.  For this reason educators are increasingly using technology in all aspects of their profession (e.g., creating curricula, classroom instruction, work assignments)  This trend can be enhanced by educating the educator about  cultural and cognitive aspects of technology and technikos, as well as the associated advantages and disadvantages related to educational and human development goals.
