Most of the things we use and do nowadays involve the use

of technology. Students and teachers make use of these when

they try to communicate, to learn, to access information, to
entertain, and even to help them in daily tasks.

Based from the definition given by United Nations

Development Program: “ICT’s are basically information-
handling tools- a varied set of goods, application and services
that are used to produce, store, process, distribute and
exchange information”.
 It can serve multiple teaching functions

ICT can be used as drill and practice, to help solve problems,

to access information in different fields.
 It can be used in different teaching and learning
modes

These learning modes include: classroom interactive

learning, independent learning, networked learning,
organizational learning, and managed learning.
 Information can be delivered in an instant

Because of the internet, you can deliver information in a

wide coverage at low cost.

ROLES AND FUNCTIONS OF
COMPUTERS
 COMPUTERS CAN INCREASE
PRODUCTIVITY
Through computers, students and teachers can
perform their tasks well. For students they can
create their home works and do research quickly.
For teachers, preparing lessons, checking and
grading them are most easy. The time they save
can be used for other tasks.
COMPUTERS FACILITATE COMMUNICATION
BETWEEN STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND
ADMINISTRATORS
There are many communication tools that are
used today to be able to communicate to students,
fellow teachers, administrators as well as parents.
Some of these tools can also be used to submit
assignments, share lessons digitally, which can be
considered as a form of communication.
COMPUTERS ARE USED TO ACCESS
LARGE AMOUNTS OF INFORMATION
Learning today is not confined to using
prescribed textbooks. Many of the information that
out students need can easily be found from the
internet where there is a vast amount of
information.
COMPUTERS ARE BRILLIANT AIDS IN
TEACHING
Computers are used as an aid in learning
through different academic software, software
support tools, and productivity tools. Teachers can
use presentation software for a more interactive
and interesting delivery of lessons. Teachers can
also use the different software tools to allow them
to generate materials and gather data.
COMPUTERS FACILITATE AN ELECTRONIC
FORMAT FOR STORAGE OF INFORMATION
One good thing about the computer is that it
can save all the information that we need. By
using the different storage devices, you can save
files, retrieve them and use the device repeatedly.
COMPUTERS CAN TEACH SUBJECTS AND
ENHANCE LEARNING OF THE STUDENTS.
Using the computer, the students will able to
gain knowledge of various subjects. Students can
work individually to work on exercise to practice
skills and to enhance them.
