The constructivist perspective has a much more elaborate enumerated roles of educational technology. And I believe is much more acceptable in the modern world. It has been said in the previous articles that technology is used as tools to help students in the learning process. It does not mean that technology itself teaches the student what he/she needs to learn. But I'm not totally saying that the traditional point of view is unacceptable.
It serves both ways.
Technology can be a medium for information and a partner for the teacher in delivering that information to the student. Either way, it helps the student understand their lessons better and increase their learning skills. Most especially, critical thinking is developed. With technology, students will yearn to learn even after student life. Information is readily available. With developed critical thinking skills, they would know what information to accept as truth.
