Advantages & Disadvantage &Benefits Of ICT STRAND





ADVANTAGES
ICTs help prepare individuals for the workplace.
One of the most commonly cited reasons for using ICTs in the classroom has been to better prepare the current generation of students for a workplace where ICTs, particularly computers, the Internet and related technologies, are becoming more and more ubiquitous. Technological literacy, or the ability to use ICTs effectively and efficiently, is thus seen as representing a competitive edge in an increasingly globalizing job market.





DISADVANTAGES
One of the major barriers for the cause of ICT not reaching its full potential in the foundation stage is teacher’s attitude. According to Hara (2004), within the early years education attitudes towards ICT can vary considerably. Some see it as a potential tool to aid learning whereas others seem to disagree with the use of technology in early year settings. Blatchford and Whitebread (2003:16), suggests that the use of ICT in the foundation stage is “unhealthy and hinders learning”.




 General Benefits
Greater efficiency throughout the school.
·  Communication channels are increased through                email, discussion groups and chat rooms


· Regular use of ICT across different curriculum subjects can have a beneficial motivational influence on students’ learning.
