speed and automatic functions of ICT can

enable teachers to demonstrate, explore or

explain aspects of their teaching, and pupils'

learning, more effectively e.g. use of a spread

sheet to perform calculations in order that

patterns can be concentrated on rather than the

processed and presented using ICT allows work

to be changed easily - in using a word processor

to edit and refine writing

Three modes of using ICT:

to support teaching and learning;(Supporting ongoing activities in teaching and learning, e.g. drill

and practice spelling exercises.)

to enhance teaching and learning;(Activities enhance subject work and make a tangible impact on

teaching strategies and styles e.g. editing written work to improve

content, appearance and accessibility for a particular audience.)

to extend teaching and learning.(The ICT-based work is central to the classroom activities, some

of which would not be possible without its use e.g. branching

multimedia story.)
