Globalization and technological change have created a new global economy “powered by technology, fueled by information and driven by knowledge.” The emergence of this new global economy has serious implications for the nature and purpose of educational institutions. Schools must promote “learning to learn”; the acquisition of knowledge and skills that make possible continuous learning over the lifetime.Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been recognized as powerful enabling tools for educational change and reform. They expand access to education, strengthen the relevance of education to the digital workplace, and raise educational quality by making teaching and learning into an active process connected to real life.
As a teacher in the schools of kingdom of Bahrain I want to seize the opportunity of studying at BTC to get the appropriate tools that can enhance the teaching process inside my classrooms to help the new generation learn better and compete in the future.
In the ICT course I learned many attractive tools, which I need to look in deeply such like mind mapping, Webquest, educational games and web blogs.
