The Internet is an unlimited information resource. Professional organizations, universities, government agencies, and many other organizations make a wide spectrum of information available on WWW home pages. To facilitate the acquisition of knowledge, teachers and students can design a home page that supplements classroom activities and links to other relevant home pages. When technology becomes an important source of information, the role of the teacher changes from an information provider to a facilitator or director of learning experiences. Using technology as a student productivity tool.
Students can use all the administrative applications that are available to teachers.
A word processor can be used to write reports, compositions, and other documents. With the inclusion of clipart and graphics, basic word processing can progress to newsletters, flyers, banners, and certificates. Students can also use presentation or authoring software packages to build multimedia presentations. At this point the students' focus is not on the technology, but on the medium to display what they have learned. When a classroom is equipped with technology equipment, it is unrealistic to expect that the teacher will automatically utilize it as a resource to its fullest potential.
