4. What is the Relative Advantage? Advantages of Infusing TechnologyOverall Objectives of Infusing Technology Make learning more attractive>Begin the process of transformation towards a more technological society Prepare students for the 21 ST CenturyCost effectiveness – finance, time, portability Increased effectiveness of the teaching/learning processes Ability to compete in a globalised market Reduced duplication of routine tasksInformation is current and up-to-date Increased storage and portability of information Appreciation and development of research skills are greatly enhanced Facilitates multiple modes of stimulus (tactile, visual, auditory – Re: H. Gardner) Cleaner and healthier physical learning environments More value for money – increased free time, distance learning, remote teaching

5. Objective of Infusion STUDENTSTEACHERS Improved performance (academic and behavioral) of students A more rapid and versatile analysis of student performance/scores Enhanced research skillsFunction as a facilitator of knowledge, rather than a dispenser. A greater sense of appreciation, relevance and enjoyment for learning. Reduced stress (less repetition, disciplinary matters; promotes remote teaching) Software can be tailored to suit individual needs and handicaps Flexibility with respect to modes of presentation, assessment and delivery
