ICT FOR
EDUCATION – Migration Prompt
Virtually all facets of Human endeavor now
integrate Computer/ ICT to an extent that whoever is not Computer literate will
feel obsolete at home, at work, in the market, in the schools and even on their
own. We all need to migrate to the
digital world because the modern world in this century has evolved new
species of man beyond the Homo sapien to Homo sapien
digital.
The appreciation of ICT involvement in every
facet of life has increased the curiosity of man to learn about computer. It
speed, accuracy and efficiency in the accomplishment of various tasks and event
are particularly inviting if not supreme to all forms of planning, control and
improvements. The use of computer in education brings forth utmost achievements
of individualism that is differences and characteristics changes in time,
things and event due to ICT are gaining clearer recognition with modern
application to what he plans to acquire from generation and environment to
environment.
These new
species are the only people that will continue to work, to talk to interact and
to develop projects and Programmes. Those who refuse to belong will become
obsolete and extinct in their profession and communities.
It is indeed
doubtful if the next 500 years will not produce machines that are versatile as
man in skills, intelligence and maneuvering. The use of ICT in education will
among other things facilitate the making of a genius out of an idiot. The
infusion of ICT for Education springs prompt solubility and digitalization of teaching
and learning through ICT resource networking. Digitalizing will collapse
classroom walls distance from home to schools/resources centres as well as
between teacher and students.
