Limited ICT Equipments
• Limited because:– to the price that so expensive– easy to damage
• Examples:– Computer labs – Continuous limitations to access the network
hamper the effectiveness of technology supported teaching and learning process
– Interactive whiteboard screen.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 29
Problem Handle ICT Tools
• Need an intensive training in the use of technologies and in its integration into classroom activities in ways to enhance student’s thinking and creativity
• teachers need improve their skills if they are to stay the developments in their profession and remain confident in their application of the technologies.
