Transform Schools to ICT-Rich Environments Promote Universal Access; Facilitate Participatory Forums; Develop Communities and Interest Groups Use Satellites, DTH and Other Technological Aids Equipment Driven Programs Do Not Work Access to Interactive rather than Disseminative Technologies/ Materials Paradigm Shift in Teachers Role to Being Facilitator/ Guide Focus on Democratization Enabled by Internet
What Technology does Human Impact Imperatives Allows visualization of abstract concepts Demonstrates cause and effect visually Provides visuals of phenomena that are otherwise not visible Frees student from data capture in experimentation Provides access to plurality of content Enables collaboration Presents content in more engaging manner Increases productivity by decreasing teaching time Inculcates and sustains interest in students to learn Addresses different learning styles Caters to varying pace of learners Eliminates delay between theory and practical sessions Allows verification of concepts learnt Technology must integrate into individual teaching styles as well as learning styles Technology solutions must be teacher / learner driven, rather than technology / content driven Equipment driven solutions do not work
