Why do you think you were eliminated from that tribe? Clearly, they are not here for you.

Why do y'all always avoid essays? I think they're really great and they provide some nice
discussions. They may be lengthy, but I'm sure at least 90% of the members on this site
have the ability to read so we might as well use that skill. Education means considerably
more than just teaching a student to read, write, and manipulate numbers. Computers,
the Internet, and advanced electronic devices are becoming essential in everyday life and
have changed the way information is gathered. How this new technology is utilized in the
curriculum and managed by teachers will have an important role to play in widening the
resource and knowledge base for all students. Technology affects the way teachers teach
and students learn. To make the best use of information technology (IT), schools need a
workable plan to fully integrate it into all aspects of the curriculum so students are taught
how, why, and when to use technology to further enhance their learning.
If a school does not have a clear plan of how and why it wishes to implement IT, then it runs
the risk of wasting money. In schools today, nearly all classrooms have access to a computer.
However, many schools mistake this as incorporating information technology into the
curriculum. School staff need to research what IT is available and what would best serve the
school's purpose, not simply purchase the latest equipment. There should be a policy stating
how IT is going to assist pupils' development and what teachers want pupils to achieve
(Reksten, 2000). Staff members need to be clear about what they want IT to do for them
before they can start incorporating it into their lessons.
The only way information technology is going to be useful to schools is if all staff members
are well-informed and fully supported. It is the principal's responsibility, and should be part
of the school's plan, to ensure that all staff are consulted about the changes, and that the
change is carefully organised. Some teachers may be resistant, especially if they have not had
much experience with computers, so training teachers is essential in implementing IT into the
school curriculum. Staff members must feel involved in the process of acquiring technology,
and in learning how to operate it, in order for them to increase their confidence in using IT as
a curriculum tool. Teachers are only going to be able to incorporate IT into their lessons if
they are competent users themselves (Reksten, 2000).
In addition, teachers need to be aware that IT within the classroom is extremely flexible, but
that they need to plan what purpose IT serves in each lesson. The skills a child learns are the
important part of any lesson, and it is the same with technology. IT needs to be used and
understood in all subjects in the same way as the ability to read is necessary for all subjects,
and “must be used across the curriculum, in the same way that a pen and pencil are used in
most subject areas” (Ager, 2000, p. 15). The best way to plan the use of IT in the classroom is
to approach it as simply a learning tool that is more advanced (and more exciting) than the
traditional pen and paper.
It is vitally important for students to be taught the strategies for using IT. Children also need
to be fully informed about the capabilities of IT before being asked to use it. Pupils should be
aware that the contexts in which they use IT will change, and they need to know what the
appropriate use of IT is and what is not. Whilst it is important that children learn to use IT
effectively, teachers must emphasise that IT is not always suitable. According to Apter (1968),
the danger is that the “computer dehumanizes people and inevitably leads them to act like
machines themselves” (p. 58). Teachers must make sure they plan to use variety in their
lessons. Too much IT instruction may be just as harmful to a child as not enough.
The usefulness of IT in the classroom, as with any learning tool, depends on the innovation
and imagination of the teacher. It is imperative, though, that the implementation of IT into a
school is carefully planned. The current information explosion makes it essential that IT be
used extensively within the classroom so children know how to use IT appropriately and
effectively. Teachers must, therefore, be fully informed about what kinds of IT are available
and whether or not they are appropriate for classroom use. School boards and teachers must
therefore ensure that all staff have a clear plan about what they want their students to
achieve through IT. The appropriate incorporation of IT into the classroom will broaden the
minds and skills of students, allowing them to be better prepared for further technological
advances.
