The Role of Technology In
Curriculum Delivery
First Trend: Paradigm shift from teacher-
centered to student-centered approach to
learning
Second Trend: Broadening realization that
education is not simply a delivering of facts

psychomotor, and contemplative
intelligence of the learners of a new age.
