ICT
Across the past twenty years the use of Information and communication technologies (ICT) has changed our lives. According to Daniels (2002) ICTs have become one of the basic building blocks of modern society. The world is moving rapidly into digital media and information and in the case of education, the role of ICT is becoming more and more important and this importance will continue to grow and develop in the 21st century.
This course is is called ICT and its aim is to learn how to use ICT in the English class. With the help of miss Mabel Ortiz, our teacher, we are going to learn how to use some tools such us webquests, glogster and wiki. As future teachers, it would be an important learning because we are going to have the possibility to teach our students how to work with these same kinds of tool which would be more fun
Here are presented some effective uses of ICT that coul be created at school by students.
