Collins as well as R. Halversont have succinctly illustrate the different types of obstacles and challenges that technological advancement has brought to the development of education. The utilization of technology in education can definitely bring benefits to the students and the learning environment. On the other hand, it also brings certain issues and disadvantages, such as the high cost of purchasing the technological equipment for public schools and it might reduce the communication as well as connection between teachers and learners. In this reflection paper, it places a heavy emphasis on examining mainly three ideas that have been discussed in the research article, which are the issues of \u201cuniform learning vs. customization,\u201d \u201cknowledge in the head vs. reliance on outside resources,\u201d and \u201cresponsibility: from the parents to the state to the individual and parents\u201d (Collins &amp; Halversont, 2010, p.19).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the ideas that have been presented in the research article is the \u201cuniform learning vs. customization\u201d (Collins &amp; Halversont, 2010, p.19).\u00a0 \u00a0In traditional schooling, there is usually a regular teaching style in which every student will achieve each of the learning goals at the sane time. Yet, with the increasing digitalization in classroom, students are able to customize their learning schedule, which they do not necessary have to follow the learning objectives that are set by the teachers.\u00a0 For instance, online course is a new schooling style, which allows the students to manipulate its own learning achievement. Even though it is not an easy task to judge weather the uniform learning style or customization is better, it is significant to set a fair balance for the system. Students who are in lower grades might not be suitable for receiving customization style of learning, since their they are still learning to build up their own knowledge achievement method. A uniform learning style will be more suitable for them, which it also provides a clear discipline and guidance for the learners at the beginner stage to follow easily.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the research article, it states an issue about the \u201cknowledge in the head vs. reliance on outside resources\u201d (Collins &amp; Halversont, 2010, p.19).\u00a0 With the traditional uniform schooling style, the students receive the knowledge mostly from the textbooks and lectures that are provided by the educator. However, with the advanced technology level, it generates affection on the trend of the educational learning process. With the flowing of information, news, and knowledge all over the Internet, students nowadays are able to access to any learning sources, other than just the textbook. In a student\u2019s prospective under this generation, it is very hard to avoid searching data and knowledge online. Therefore, in order to maintain the balance between the traditional way of achieving knowledge and the technological way, it is important for the teachers to educate the students to be aware of what sources that they are learning from, because it is not necessary that all information online are reliable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The concept of \u201cresponsibility: from the parents to the state to the individual and parents\u201d reflects the relationship between the role of the country\u2019s responsibility of educating the next generation and the parents\u2019 role (Collins &amp; Halversont, 2010, p.23). It is definitely essential for the lower grades students\u2019 parents to get involved in guiding their children to take the benefits of the technology in education. The role of parents is significant, as they can create a positive technological learning environment for the students to achieve the learning goals under both of the regular schooling as well as technological education.<\/p>\n<p>For my personal prospective, I have definitely witnessed how the technological development has brought changes and impacts in education as well as music. The utilization of technology in educational purpose allows students to easily access to more resources, which helps learners to not only study the limited continents on the provided text, but also able to explore a greater wealth and depth of knowledge. \u00a0The advanced development of technology has also greatly influenced the music education. It allows singers and musicians to use professional technological software to record, compose, and edit songs and sound tracks in a more convenient way with rich elements and higher vocal quality. It also benefits for some students who do not have a musical background, which allows them to experience the creation of music.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Reference<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div title=\"Page 5\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Collins,)A.,)&amp;)Halverson,)R.)(2010).)The)second)educational)revolution:)rethinking) education)in)the)age)of)technology.)Journal$of$Computer$Assisted$Learning,)26(1),)18\u201327.) doi:10.1111\/j.1365@2729.2009.00339.x))<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EDCP 305 Reflection 3 &nbsp; In the research article \u201cThe Second Educational Revolution: Rethinking Education In The Age Of Technology,\u201d A.
