INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ITS IMPACTS TO THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF ECONOMICS IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS

EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY

Underwood, (2006) provides evidence that teachers use ICT to support existing pedagogies. On supporting this view, Romboll Management, (2005) illustrates the current dilemma concerning the pedagogical use of Information Technology in the classroom. He states, “Even though a large number of teachers have gained more pedagogical knowledge (through better access to ICT-based materials and pedagogical concept via training and discussion), teachers have increased the use of I.T in teaching and learning”. Similar positive results are affirmed by Haggins (2005) by stressing that an overwhelming majority of teachers have confidence in using I.T in classroom. I.T gives teachers access to information to support them in trying new strategies, thinking, reflecting on practice and engaging with new materials, committee on development in the science of learning, (2010). There is no doubt that teachers who use I.T in classrooms have to demonstrate high levels of energy, hard work and confidence, Lanksher& Snyder, (2012).
