Technological blog


As a previous candidate towards Walden's psychological program, it was interesting because I learn the hardships of the program towards the end. I'm not talking about the course study but how, the program did not include mentioning about the difficulty of finding psychological preceptor toward my internship. With this issue, the technological learning that I'm proposing was for each State in the U.S. to allow video conference internship. The video conference will be equipped of technologies such readily online books available, online libraries, and video conference call to meet with preceptors and colleagues. This technological educational learning is vital to ease the process of learning because it help students increase skills, update data, use powerful tools to solve problem, and increase visualization while learning psychological

process. The model can also be used through other types of learning such as engineering, and education needing computer learning on their internship. Computer and information literacy can be overwhelming but increases understanding on the research process (American Library Association, 2014).

 

Meanwhile, privacy and confidentiality will be an issue but, obtaining the proper consent and explaining to the client about video conference calling can be allowed by the client.

 

The example of using video internship increases technological learning as it enhance skills, and achieves professional attainment from distant learning. Also, the professional position of psychologists allows immediate video conference calling as to share professional insights and ideas studying the client through video. Using computer assistance helps a lot in blogging and collaborating with colleagues (Richardson, 2010).

  1. I posted this on the online discussion post at Walden. I looked into the psychology program at Walden and decided not to pursue it mainly because of the internship. Though I did not pursue it thoroughly I had a feeling that the internship would be difficult to accomplish. Therefore, I agree with the concept that the internship should be done by video conferencing.
