This report is all about what the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) contributes to the education system today.

3. Information and Communication
Technology and Education
TECHNOLOGY – making
information in more detail at a
faster pace than ever before
LEARNERS – acquire higher level
skills for real world problems

4. Information and Communication
Technology and Education
“Learners must rise above the
rote, factual level to begin to think
critically and creatively.” (Bruer,
1993)
-more emphasis on CHANGE as
part of learning

5. Information and Communication
Technology and Education
LOWER-LEVEL rote learning (Ex.
drill and practice techniques for
basic level learning
HIGHER-ORDER skills (Ex.
simulations, discovery, problem-solving
and cooperative learning

6. Information and Communication
Technology and Education
TEACHER (before) – total control
and manipulation
LEARNER (today) – has roles in
planning, implementation, and
self-evaluation

7. Information and Communication
Technology and Education
SOURCES of POTENTIAL
INFORMATION (due to learner-centered
instruction):
 teacher
 technology
 parents
 media

8. Actively searching for needed
information and learning
experiences, determining what
is needed, and seeking ways to
attain it
Participating at times as the
expert/knowledge provider
Desiring to explore, discover,
and create unique solutions to
learning problems
Viewing the teacher as a
resource, model, and helper
who will encourage exploration
and attempts to find unique
solutions to problems

9. Participating at times as one who
may not know it all but desires to
learn
Being viewed as a support,
collaborator, and coach for students
as they learn to gather and evaluate
information for themselves
Actively coaching students to
develop and pose their own
questions and explore their own
alternative ways of finding answers
Actively encouraging individuals to
use their personal knowledge and
skills to create unique solutions to
problems

12. ICT has also been a driving force for
globalization, but it has also divided
the world into those who have not,
information rich and information
poor (Dutton et al., 1996)

14.  Increasing access through
distance learning.
Enabling a knowledge network for
students.
Training teachers.
Broadening the availability of
quality education materials.
Enhancing the efficiency and
effectiveness of educational
administration and policy.

17. • Effective teaching all but
disappears.
• The digital world remains divided.
• Students risk becoming antisocial.
• Computers are a health risk.
• Fundamental skills are sidelined.

19. The following are some of the possible
outcomes of the process of change.
• Multimedia learning resources available via
information networks, will proliferate and
become an essential feature of education.
• Learners and teachers alike will have access to
powerful potable computing devices that will be
wirelessly connected to network resources.
• Students will become active learners,
collaborating with one another and with more
experienced members of society, to seek out
information and gain knowledge.

20. • Teacher’s roles will tend to shift from the
“sage on the stage” to the “guide on the side”.
• Education will become a life-long process,
important and accessible to all, and schools
will become centers of learning.
• The artificial divisions of grade levels will
disappear.
• The boundaries separating schools from each
other and the community will blur or
disappear.

21. To solve the problem in mismatch in skills
and the requirements of the jobs, the
former president Gloria Macapagal-
Arroyo, issued an executive order creating
a new path called ladderized system of
education and training, converging the
TVET system of Technical Education and
Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and
higher education programs of the
Commission on Higher Education.

22. • Students and trainees acquire technical
and vocational skills from TESDA
registered programs in schools and
training centers, public and private.
• After the training, the graduated apply
for jobs and get employed.
• When they decide later to continue
their studies to earn a college degree,
the TVET training they have completed
will be credited in the college course
they will take.
