Abstract:
Knowledge, education and learning are strongly linked with society and its evolution. One cannot teach or learn now-a-days the same way as a century ago. The IT (information technology) and internet communications revolutions of the past two decades have transformed teaching-learning norms and systems around the world
- particularly in post-industrial societies of the first world - beyond recognition. With the introduction of ICT (information communication technologies) into classrooms of progressive schools worldwide, it is now possible to supplement and enrich chalk-n-talk and textbook teaching with live multi-media presentations on smart boards, to facilitate deeper understanding of curricular concepts and subjects. Moreover, the internet revolution has created a vast universal digital library accessible to. all, enabling students to reach the world's best teachers with the click of a mouse.
