Impact of ICT on our lives
ICT has the biggest effect on our lives . But it can effect in both ways positive and negative.
Positive impacts:-
1) Millions of students use it to search information and use it for researching.
2) Students get help in their homework.
3) Students can search past papers.
Negative Impacts:-
1) Can waste time .
2) Students may lose their concentration in studies if they chat all the time on the internet.
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”. Other early years educators who are opposed to offering ICT experiences within the educational settings take a less extreme view than this and suggest that ICT is fine, but there are other more vital experiences that young children will benefit from, (Blatchford and Whitebread, 2003). In theory some people may have the opinion that the teachers who had not experienced ICT throughout their learning tend to have a negative attitude towards it, as they may lack the training in that area of the curriculum.
