Realizing the effect of ICT on the workplace and everyday life, today’s educational institutions try to restructure their educational curricula and classroom facilities in order to bridge the existing technology gap in teaching and learning processes. This restructuring requires effective adoption of technologies into existing learning environments in order to provide learners with knowledge of specific subject areas, to promote meaningful learning and to enhance professional productivity.
