CIC2601 Assignment 2 2021. Computer Integration In The Classroom. Integrating technology in to teaching and learning will give the teachers the gift of time which indicates that they have more time for one-on-one attention to see exactly where students might be with their work. It also provides student-centred learning as it allows the teachers to provide resources to learning as well as personalise their learning experience. It can make education exciting for example, teachers could go above and beyond for their learners to succeed. Teachers make it happen, they wield the power to change how education happens if they integrate technology into teaching and learning, they can also transform learning for all their learners.

In short, they fear that the students will know more than them as well as show that they know more. • Fear of technology – teachers have a fear of unknown technology and that makes them scared to experiment with the new technology, afraid of what they might find. • Lack of training opportunities and rigid teaching methods – teachers are not provided with the right and sufficient training they need, with so many roles to play there is not enough time to even practice the new teaching methods as the existing teaching methods are rigid to be changed.

The school should have a management team that handles all the budget, facilities as well as communication with teachers etc. school should have an ICT committee that oversees all things involving the ICT planning, identifying sources and how the ICT is being used.
