The Impact of ICT in Teaching and Learning

The education system must improve the implementation of ICT in Rural schools, where learners are disadvantaged about using computers in their own capacity. Learners in rural areas they dont have libraries where they can be able to make their own research and the whites are the one's who are entitled to use computers because they are living in town. The impact of learning and teaching is also focusses on the teacher ratio in class. The teachers in rural areas are not computer literate and also learners are not ICT orientated. Our government first needs to build enough classes and computer laboratries.

The impact is that teachers need to be trained so that they can facilitate learning in class. Although learners have the impact on cell phones, facebooks, mixit, e-mail's but there still a gap between rural and urban areas. Our learners learn quicker than us adults because we are not interested in learning.
