Obstacles of IT in Educational Practices
Even though information technology is pretty much helpful to many countries nowadays, it still has disadvantages or obstacles that an individual faces.Some of these are:
* Accessibility of the website
Some schools like in Berllingham school,they has this problem in accessing their districts' web pages. It was first created in Microsoft Word,then saved in HTML, but when they want to access the web again,they find difficulty in the accessibility of the pages.
* Online Teaching VS Traditional Teaching
Online teaching is now a trend in this new world of technology, however it lessens the importance of the teachers and the schools aura. It maybe the choice of many students who don't want to have themselves being on school,but it still contradicts the proper and traditional way of teaching. It also neglects those people who cant afford in indulging themselves in that kind of learning.
According also to some faculties,teaching online are more difficult than teaching traditional courses as well online delivery were more labor intensive because of the amount of time required to grade papers and respond to questions of the students.
* Increase in Financial Burden
We all know that when we deal with technology, it connects with money.So when we don't have enough budget to indulge in the new trend of technology, we cant really update ourselves in the new trend of technology that is very much increasing.
* Reduction in Time for Reading Written Material
Written materials are already dump because of the internet access that an individual can easily get, so written materials has lessen its importance.
* Reliability of the Information Given in the Website
Majority agrees that we can easily get information from the internet, but we are not sure if that information given was really reliable or not. That's why we can't really trust or depend all our answers on the information that the websites give on us.
