disseminating, and creating, storing
and managing information.
It is important that learners
understand how to use these tools in
helping them learn. 4 4

is to make learners become
useful and productive citizens, the
use of ICT tools can provide a lot of
po ssibilities on how learners can do
something with what they know.
Teachers can therefore employ

ICT tools in their ways of
en gaging learners by
communicating, disseminating and
managing information. 5 5
