Access to variety of
learning resources :
Being a part of the technological age, IT is helpful as it
provides plenty of resources to advance the teaching skills and learning
ability of learners. With the aid of IT, it is easier to create different forms of teaching, for
example; audio visual education.
The resources for learning are being improved and expanded
in such a way that now with these vivid and vast techniques forming part of the
IT curriculum, students can now regard computers as tools to be used in almost all
aspects of their studies.
Learners are encouraged to make use of the newer multimedia
technologies to communicate ideas, describe projects, and order information in their
work.
IT has provided immediacy to education in a way that the
pace of importing knowledge, from computers and web networks, are very fast and
one can be educated anywhere at any time.
Newer technologies are being introduced into
well-established patterns of working and living without drastically changing
them. For example, the traditional office, with secretaries working at
keyboards and notes being written on paper and manually exchanged, has remained
remarkably stable, even if personal computers have replaced typewriters.
