Even though some schools are cautious of introducing too much ICT teaching into their practice, this study aims to prove that embedding ICT into the teaching and learning process is exceptionally valuable. While there has been some innovation in pedagogical strategy, including notable successes on old teacher centred paradigm still exists in schools all over the world, as opposed to more modern approaches which focus on student centred principles. Why should we have computers in schools?
of the importance of critical thinking skills as a learning outcome (Huber & Kuncel, 2015; Lai, 2011; Moore & Parker, 1992). In a constantly changing world, the escalation of critical thinking in educational system is driven by global, local, technological, societal and economic factors (Allen & Scozzi, 2012). This condition has challenged schools to develop and evaluate critical thinking skills as part of student’s learning (Firdaus, Kailani, Bakar, & Bakry, 2015) The development of critical thinking

improving the progress of students in mathematics. Considering the importance of mathematics which provides students the ability to develop critical thinking skills and acquire effective ways of problem-solving, they should be equipped with skills and knowledge in mathematics. Mathematics allows every individual to model real-world problems or conditions around. Mathematics provides opportunities for exploration of those problems in a variety of ways and search for a solution or possibly the best of many
computer attitude. This study revealed that teachers who felt ease in using computer usually have positive outlook on usefulness of technology in teaching. Likewise, the compatibility with computers could motivate teachers to deepen understanding and knowledge about computer operations. Moreover, the positive beliefs on the relevance of computer in teaching jobs will determine the actual use of computer in the future jobs. Thus, implied teachers need to change their attitude from passive user to active
despite the differences particular to this field of knowledge. Perhaps, in no other modern philosophical problem the question of the status is as pressing as in philosophical anthropology. The very existence of the discipline is in question. What are philosophical anthropologists to investigate, if “man is dead”? Why is it so? The thing is, philosophical anthropology has lost its canonical form. Whereas no other field of philosophic knowledge has lost its subject. Natural philosophy still studies

Success in safeguarding that learners acquire the skills and knowledge they need to use technology strongly opens the door to all kinds of new educational prospects for learners, and downstream financial prospects for graduating youth and their countries. It is the significant to participation in the global knowledge-based economy. Likewise, learners in the use and application of technology must be given the precedence and resources it justifies
This paper aims to examines the social, value and cultural implications of e-learning in future generations. In the new pedagogical paradigm of education the whole society is subject to a permanent process of learning. This new dimension brings into play new forms, new implications and, effectively, new social, value and cultural implications. As one of these new social aspects is empowerment, by empowerment we can understand the delegation in the people of an organization, of a relationship -in
enable teachers and students to know the subject matter easier because ICT can enable them to gain a variety of knowledge perspectives. However, effective use of such ICT resources is what brings the positive impact (Mwalongo, 2011). The appropriate instructional design of tools for ICT lessons tend to be more beneficial to when students are guided on to use them and and equip students with the necessary technical skills, otherwise students tend to immerse and start searching information from the
