ICT collaborative environments surpasses old practices with drawing learning closer to a real life with interactivity and authenticity of real world problems in learning and consequently reducing de-contextualization in the learning process. Contemporary educational ICT usage in learning processes is student-centred. In 1993 University of Stanford (USA) started an ICT supported distance learnin...

In order to decrease Information and Communication Technology (ICT) security threats caused by human errors an increased concentration on education and learning is necessary. Because of the large amount of new users, with different kind of learning capabilities, the traditional teaching methods are not sufficient. Alternative forms of education are needed. This article discusses why ICT securit...

This chapter analyzes the adequacy of two university education models according to their Information Communications Technology (ICT) usage: One model is based on the use of ICT as a cornerstone and a cohesive element of the teaching-learning process, whereas the other considers ICT a mere teaching support tool. The preliminary results obtained from a review of case studies reveal that ICT use i...

Information and communication technology (ICT) has become, within a very short time, one of the basic building blocks of modern society. Many countries now understanding the importance of ICT and mastering the basic skills and concepts of it as part of the core of education. Organizations, experts and practitioners in the education sector increasingly recognizing the importance of ICT in suppor...

This paper examines how secondary teachers of the core subjects of English, Mathematics and Science have begun to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) into mainstream classroom practice in English schools. It draws on an analysis of 18 focus group interviews with core subject departments. The analysis culminated in a thematic model of professional thinking about how the inte...

The ongoing, unprecedented growth of ICT, coupled with the globalisation of the economy, has created a huge challenge for education. This rapid growth of infusing ICT in education is confronting stakeholders with the effectiveness and the impact of these technological applications. This paper explores the impact of ICT implementation on Hong Kong classroom practice since the inception of the go...

The main purpose of this study was to determine the predictors of academic achievement of student Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) teachers with different learning styles. Participants were 148 student ICT teachers from Ankara University. Participants were asked to fill out a personal information sheet, the Turkish version of Kolb’s Learning Style Inventory, Weinstein’s Learnin...

Intelligent computer-assisted language learning—Intelligent CALL, or ICALL—can be defined in a number of ways, but one understanding of the term is that of CALL incorporating language technology (LT) for e.g. analyzing language learners’ language production, in order to provide the learners with more flexible—indeed, more ‘intelligent’—feedback and guidance in their language learning process. H...

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in mathematical education is a very active field of research and innovation, where learning is understood to be meaningful and grasping multiple linked representation rather than rote memorization, a great amount of literature offering a wide range of theories, learning approaches, methodologies and interpretations, are generally stressing the po...
