ICT as Medium for Advocacy
1. How Information and Communications and Technology (ICT) has transformed the educational methodologies when you were in grade school and now in Senior High School.
Because of ICT, the educational methodologies when I was in grade school has been improved now that I am in Senior High School. Instead of just showing a visual aid using a manila paper or any kind of paper, it has been improved and now, teachers use laptop and a projector to present the lesson to their students. In short, with the help of ICT, it makes the educational methodologies to became more technology based.
