COMPETENCY OF ICT IN TEACHING, LEARNING PROCESS

The 21st Century learning is the process whereby digital natives utilise the power of modern technology to learn anything, anytime and anywhere. Classrooms are no longer necessarily defined by rigid walls, as hybrid learning models blend the virtual with the physical into a truly engaged and collaborative educational experience. Effective teaching in the 21st century must be student centred and must infuse technology into the learning experience for both rigour and relevance and emphasise higher order thinking skills. Education is for a change. The aim of education has varied from time to time but the main objective of any education is to improve the mental quality of a student. Technology of education is being developed with the aim not only making education more widely available but also of improving the quality of available education. The use of computer based instruction to improve teaching, learning has wide spread acceptance in education.
