discrete pieces of information that
 answers the questions who, what, when,
and where. It is the fundamental
knowledge necessary for students to
achieve more complex higher order
thinking such as critical thinking and
creativity, inquiry and production
b. Structural Knowledge consists of facts or
pieces of declarative knowledge put
together to attain some form of meaning.
It can be presented by concepts maps,
categorization, or classification
c. Procedural Knowledge is a knowledge in
action or the knowledge of how to do
something.
2. Technology enhances learner's
communication skills through social
interaction
Benefits of technology-supported
communication
o Help learners solve problems from
multiple sources.
o Teaches learners to communicate
with politeness, taking turns in
sending information and receiving
feedback.
3. Technology upgrades learners' higher-order-
thinking skills: critical thinking, problem
solving and creativity
a. Encourage students to find and use
information from variety of sources
both online and offline.
b. Assist students to compare
information from different sources.
c. Allow student to reflect through
different delivery modes like writing,
speaking or drawing
d. Involve students in creating and
questioning assessment
THREE DOMAINS OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY
1. Technology as a Tutor
2. Technology as a Teaching Tool
3. Technology as a Learning Tool
Unit 2 - ICT Policies and Safety Issues in Teaching
and Learning
DICT's ICT4E RA 10844
 ICT in Education Masterplan for all levels
 Content and applications development
through the Open Content in Education
Initiative (OCEI)
 iSchool WebBoard
 PhEdNet
 eSkwela
 eQuality Program for tertiary education
 Digital Media Arts Program
 ICT Skills Strategic Plan
USAID'S ICT4E
“Incorporating relevant information and
communication technologies (ICTs) in education
interventions can enhance the training and coaching
of teachers and instructors; enable teachers and
instructors to be more effective; aid in reaching
marginalized and vulnerable children, including
children with disabilities; and improve the collection
and use of educational data to strengthen systems
and improve policy decision” (USAID EDUCATION
POLICY).
USAID'S ten basic principles integrating ICT
1. Use ICT to support education and
development goals
2. Use ICT to enhance student knowledge and
skills
3. Use ICT to support data-driven decision
making
4. Include all short- and longer-term costs in
budget planning
5. Explore technology alternatives to find
appropriate solutions
6. Focus on teacher development, training, and
ongoing support
7. Explore and coordinate the involvement of
many different stakeholders
8. Develop a supportive policy environment
9. Integrate monitoring and evaluation into
project planning
10. “It takes capacity to build capacity” — System
strengthening precedes system
transformation.
ISSUES ON ICT AND INTERNET POLICY AND
REGULATIONS
 FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION AND CENSORSHIP
o Individual rights are given up in order
to have access to electronic networks.
o Defamation actions may be used to
silence critics
 PRIVACY AND SECURITY
o Most commercial sites have a privacy
policy. When someone uses a site and
clicks "I agree" button, it's as if you
 have turned over private information 3. Misconduct associated with subject logins,
to any authority that may access it, such as using someone else's password .
o It is important to ensure that 4. Leaving a mobile phone turned on during class
information will only be used for period
purposes for which it was gathered 5. Unauthorized taking of pictures or images
and will not be disclosed to others with mobile phone camera still or moving
without consent of the individuals.
 E-POLLUTANTS FROM E-WASTE
o The accumulated e-waste is due to
the rapid turnover of equipment due
to rapid improvement of software.
o Efficient extraction of toxic
components requiring the recycling by
both consumers and equipment
vendors are selling must be required.

"Tokyo 2020 is making the the gold, silver, and bronze

medals entirely from 78,985 tons of recycled
electronics, including 6.21 million recycled cellphones,
according to the Tokyo 2020 Medal Project."

DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY RISKS

1. Exposure to inappropriate content, including

on-line pornography, extremism (exposure to
violence associated with racist language);
2. Lifestyle websites like self-harms and suicide
sites, and hate sites;
3. Cyber-bullying in all forms, receiving sexually
explicit images or messages;
4. Privacy issues including disclosure of personal
information;
5. Health and well being amount of time spent
on-line, internet gaming and many more;
6. Prolonged exposure to on-line technologies,
particularly at an early age;
7. Addiction to gambling and gaming;
8. Theft and fraud from activities such as
phishing;
9. Viruses, Trojans, spyware and other malware;
and maintain online networks via
10. Social pressure to networking sites

MISUSE OF ICT

In school, some minor misuse made by

learners include the following:

1. Copying information into assignment and

failing to acknowledge the source (plagiarism
and copyright infringement)
2. Downloading materials not relevant to their
studies
