Chapter 2 (Januszewski & Molenda)

In this chapter the authors talked about facilitating learning which the chapter defines the term as being "posited as the purpose of the field, not as the result of processes that are the raison d'etre of the field." I have to say that this chapter states everything about what learning is and possible more as it strongly relates to learning environment, styles, theories and how educational technology plays or shares it's key into facilitating learning. In my understanding from the chapter the role that education technology plays is important as it helps to facilitate the development of all kinds of skills from basic skills to high-order critical thinking skills as well as it provides us with more possibilities and flexibility in our teaching or learning process. As teachers we can all relate as to how the use of education technology has helped us in our everyday lesson plans and has help us to enhance our students learning abilities and our working life style.
