Students are the ultimate knowledge workers, since learning is all about acquiring knowledge. PC's backed with solid infrastructure can be used to reach educational goals of collaborative learning, critical thinking and life long learning skills. The success of PC's as educational tools requires teacher involvement as teaching with technology will be the rule rather than the exception. Teachers training in the use of ICT will play a key role in this paradigm shift. People may not realize how alone teachers are in the classroom.
Most teachers remain behind closed doors all day.
They have little time for sharing experiences or interacting with other teachers. Therefore Training and skill development of teachers will be addressed in our endeavour to introduce E-learning in our schools. The final objective is to equip each classroom with computers in adequate numbers and to encourage E-learning via the internet in the years to come. However conscious of the budgetary outlay required, government will proceed in the first stage with the setting up of computer labs of adequate sizes in primary and secondary schools. All the schools will be connected to the Internet.
