Investigating Obstacles to the Adoption and Use of Computer Technology in Teaching and Learning

THE USE OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY IN THE EDUCATION OF ASNAF STUDENTS: ISSUES AND TRENDS

Early computer technology in education was largely influenced by the theories of cognitivism and behaviourism, where technology was used to transfer information as if it were a stand-in for the teacher. This shows that students are given information through technology. It is the student's job to learn the information offered by the technology while they study the material provided by the teacher. Studies from across the world frequently discuss how Information, Communication, and Technology (ICT) is used. The usage of ICT has been more prevalent over time at all educational levels, from the Asnaf student level to the higher level. The government has allocated such a large amount to cultivate the integration of ICT in preserving education. In connection with that, the primary education level should welcome a noble effort to realize the wishes of this government. In addition, educators should be aware of the latest issues and trends in the use of ICT in primary education to ensure that the handling and use of ICT in the context of primary teaching and learning becomes more effective. The issues and trends discussed in this report are the health and safety of students, infrastructure, competence of educators, the use of ICT as a teaching aid, medium of communication and collaboration with parents. Therefore, the cultivation of the use of ICT in primary education is also discussed and thought to be implemented as further studies.

Design and application of an intelligent communication platform for aesthetics education for internationalization

Abstract With the rapid development of information technology, aesthetics education is changing, and the use of computer technology for teaching has become the new norm in the teaching field. In recent years, many intelligent platforms for aesthetics education have emerged at home and abroad, but most of them are only simple video courses, which can hardly meet the needs of aesthetics education. In order to design an international-oriented intelligent communication platform for aesthetics education, this paper builds an intelligent platform serving aesthetics education based on the relevant technologies of intelligent learning communication and completes performance tests after implementation. On the user side, the average memory consumption of the intelligent platform is 15.6 MB, the average memory occupation rate is only 15.34%, and the average network traffic consumed per operation step is only 7.56 MB. The CPU consumption of the platform is also relatively low. The highest occupation rate is 3.76%, the lowest is 0.81%, and the average is only 2.58%. For the server-side Web test, the average system response time of the intelligent platform is 0.72 seconds, which is a very fast response time. In the concurrency test, the platform still runs smoothly under the full concurrency of 100 concurrency numbers and can respond to most users’ requests within 1 second. The intelligent platform is fully capable of meeting the needs of teachers and students in aesthetics education. The international-oriented intelligent communication platform for aesthetics education designed in this paper can help cultivate students’ aesthetic perception and thinking ability, thus improving their aesthetic literacy in an all-around way.

Technē and technology: young men, literacy and the facility to write

ABSTRACT With the fetishisation of computer technologies in education, the older sense of technology as pertaining to skill, what the Greeks termed ‘technē’, seems to have slipped from view. Technology is generally equated with the object itself rather than the facility to use it. A skill such as writing, for example, is rarely considered a technology and yet it is a vital tool for communication that aids understanding. Writing is also a technology that is framed in particular ways in relation to boys and young men. With constant concerns over ‘boys’ literacy’, it is generally viewed as a ‘feminine’ activity. Drawing on interviews with a group of young men – all proficient writers reflecting on their schooling – this article examines their perspectives on writing and broader engagement with different technologies. In particular, it considers how writing by hand can promote forms of embodied cognition and the affordances this provides.
