• Key Purpose of Schooling:

 To familiarize the learners to the

present environment and prepare
them for the future.
Things to consider:

 Students must be prepared for life, not just for

careers.
 What ought to be taught, is not thought, but the
process of thinking.
 Acceptance of heterogeneity is essential in
today’s world where we live in highly diverse
societies.
 While delivering the curriculum, teachers should
drive application-based, creative, and innovative
thinking.

“By enhancing learning and providing students

with new sets of skills, facilitating teacher training,
minimizing costs associated with traditional education
and reaching out to poor students with minimal access
to education, ICT has been thought to have a multiplier
effect on the education system.”
 Kozma 1991; 1994 / Dede 1996

“Replacing traditional mode of delivering

education can be detrimental to the learners.”

 Clark 1983; 1994

“ICT is just a mode of delivering learning and

education, and it is still the functional pedagogy that
matters most.”
 Bruer (1993)

“Learners must rise above the rote, factual level

to begin to think critically and creatively.”
