DESCRIPTION
The Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are not only a significant factor in the performance and growth of economics, but they also represent a novel and effective tool to help advance sustainable human development. These technologies can provide powerful tools for student learning, but their value depends upon how effectively teachers use them to support instruction. Education leaders agree that all new teachers must graduate from teacher education programs with the knowledge and skills that will allow them to integrate technology easily and effectively into their daily teaching, whatever the setting. The Present volume elaborately describes the use of modern technologies in teaching and learning. The advantages of new educational technologies, the way they have to be used and the barriers of technology use in curriculum etc., are describes in detail. The contents of the book will be immensely useful to teachers, students, administrators and policy makers.
