Dear Student,

I am Mr S. Vighnarajah, your course coordinator for the course EED 502/05 ICT in Education. This course will present to you an opportunity to gain a greater appreciation of the use of ICT in the teaching and learning process. On this note, this course seeks to enhance and equip students with necessary skills needed to implement ICT in their curriculum, including skills in using computer hardware, software and connectivity for effective instruction. In addition, students will also be able to select and organise materials equipment, and technological tools needed to conduct instruction and accomplish desired educational outcomes.

Please read the units thoroughly and make your own notes. Do make an effort to attempt all the activities and self-tests as they will reinforce your understanding of the units. Do also attend all tutorial sessions as these sessions will provide the opportunity for you to address any doubts that you may have about the course.

You can reach your tutor, course coordinator and even your course mates via our online learning management system called WawasanLearn.
