ICT Evaluation Prototype: A step towards curriculum change
Abstract
new trends in education have caused a shift in the way all stakeholders involved in education understand the teaching-learning process. This has led ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) to be taken into account and used massively by teachers and students thereby improving their academic environments and the quality of education. Research projects now look at educational computing like a branch that can solve the little changing traditional education alternatives, thus giving the possibility to open universities to virtual learning environments and convert the information technologies in sharing and collaboration platforms that can amplify the possibilities of knowledge. The prototype shown in this paper is an effort by a group of researchers to facilitate the adaptation of ICT in the curriculum, and serves as a motivation for the entire university community in regard to the benefits we can draw from adopting such ICT approach.
