learning styles and ICT

  • ICT is very important in the development of the new way of learning. its vital to keep lessons up to date with technology as it is the new way students are learning
  • with this new age learning we are sometime to focused on the technology we are using we forget to look at the education behind the technology..what ICT can teach us about the subject we are learning about.
  • it is sometimes assumed that by using ICT we will ALL learn more however if it is not used properly we cn not believe that.
  • the effect of ICT is maximised if it goes hand in hand with the changes to teaching and learning

  • ICT promotes different learning styles. students should be able to take their time while using ICT.
  • it cant be assumed that all students know how to use computers..however most will
  • the use of visual stimulas helps students to remember what it being taught..if they can see it they will most likely remember more
  • technology means that the teacher has to develop new stratigies to teach. the technology helps the teacher aswell. it makes the subject more intresting for the students and much easier to teach.
  • using ICT for teachers whom education has always been textual and verbal approaches using technology may seem a challenge
  • iusing ICT will improve motivation levels with the students...using visual stimulas highly motivates people
