THE ROLE OF INFORMATION COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES IN BUILDING A PEACEFUL WORLD 3

“The evolution of technology is always inspired by education.”
Historically, technology has been a part of education since the beginning of 16th century. Information and communication technologies have steadily developed from simple to new discovery brought about by the challenge to develop literacy in education and expand expertise for future specialization. But in the imbalance between a developed and a developing country, there should be base upon which it will hold and weigh every system to work accordingly. Information and communications technologies and government should be intertwined to accelerate the instructional wheel in the educational system. Such that all private and public schools should be passed on by the government’s enough budgets to aid high-technology education. A simple television, internet and computer would supplement learners to move up from the customary form of learning to advance into a sophisticated learning. In this way, learners can easily access to the ways of teaching of their native country as well as others. Moreover, the teachers as the prime movers of education can also expect learning different skills in teaching approaches and be motivated to be more keen as to how and what should be the best way to gauge learning to the learners from this array of resources. Integration such as this is also taught to help students understand how to use knowledge and skills as cognitive tools for solving realistic problems and use this as a commodity to compete globally in more diverse cultures. With these we can provide and place balance between equity of opportunities, excellence in education and a dynamic step for our future.
