Summary:
Role of computers in Education
1. Storage of information - computers are brilliant aid in teaching. Education is no longer
limited to classrooms.
2. Quick data processing – computers have given impetus to distance education. the internet
helps teachers set test papers, frame questions for home assignments and decide project
topics. Not just academics because ideas are limitless and it connects computers all around
the world.
3. Audio- video in teaching – computer software helps better presentation of information. Use to
the visual aid, difficult subjects can be explained in better ways.
4. Access to the internet – computers enable access to the internet which has information on
literally everything. Both teachers and students benefits from the use of computer technology.
5. Better presentation of information – computer, hard drives and storage devices are an
excellent way to store data.
- They are used in networking, for information access and data storage and also in the
processing and presentation of information.
6. Quick communication between students, teachers, and parents
Computers in education enable us to teach more effectively, reach and teach more students,
make the world our classroom as students with internet access can directly tap or resources in
their communities or venture beyond the neighborhoods and participate in real time
communications across the people. During this pandemic, Technologies, particularly in
remote areas, are not widely available. So, hopefully, we'll be able to recover quickly once
the pandemic is over.
- Computers should be introduced to our students as early as possible.
-
New Technologies – interactive whiteboard, netbooks, tablets, smartphones, and real –
life uses of computers in education.
Negative effects- good teaching requires a personal connection. The less fortunate
students soon discover technology’s unwelcome. Computers are a health risk, that’s why
we should always use anti- radiation glass.
