Module 8: Learning in ICT-enabled Classroom

The positives of learning in ICT-enabled classrooms can out weigh the negatives if certain practices and structures are put into place. Some of these are:-

  1. age appropriate devices and software
  2. ICT- competent facilitators
  3. finance for purchasing and maintaining equipment
  4. well planned activities for in and out of class sessions that allow for collaboration, engagement and enjoyment 
  5. opportunities for feedback
  6. opportunities that cater for diversity
  7. student-centered learning
I must say that Antigua and Barbuda has shown its belief in having the above mentioned classrooms because it has first given every facilitator a laptop, provide the opportunity for every fourth or fifth formers to be armed with tablet. This is a step in the technological dirrection.
