Disadvantages of ICT in Education


ICT certainly bring benefits to us but there are disadvantages in the use of ICT if ignored could give a negative impact on children. The use of ICT to children should be with the guidance and teachers should also be creative delivering their teaching without relying heavily on ICT.
Some of the disadvantages are the following.


Isolation
Children will not be able to show off their talents and share them on something that cannot be measured and will be abandoned. Sensory stimulation they cannot expand because they do not know something real.

Laziness
Teachers will also be lazy especially with the availability of internet access and e-mail. Through e-mail they can change the outcome of their work and the production of a matter would not be productive and creative. Teaching methods will be stereotyped arrangement only children do not will earn renewal in their learning. All children will learn the same thing in the same way. This indirectly makes children lazy to learn and quickly become bored in learning sessions.

Dependent
Teachers will be devastated and teaching will not occur if the teachers depend solely on the use of computers. If the computer was damaged and had problems teachers cannot teach and lead children will meet their activities with things that are not beneficial.






Misuse

In language learning such as the use of their computers will not be able to learn to pronounce correctly because they only listen to the words from the audio that is played by the computer. Their articulation will be less true and accurate. Diction that comes out of the computer also is limited because the children will not learn much more than what has been set by their teachers only and they are not able to apply it in their lives diction properly because they cannot be clearly aware of the use of diction. Then the communication skills they will be very weak. They will not be able to use phrases suitable verse for their shortcomings in the selection diction.

  5. I agree to that, The thing about using ict in education is that you can easily go on google and type in the question and get the answer easily, which means that you haven’t thought about it and that you have just done the easiest thing and not really tried. Another thing like this is that you can easily copy and paste things from google to a document that you’re writing, this means that you’re not doing your own work and you’re just relying on the internet. And apparently it will lead to the laziness and being dependent of the students or teachers.
    THANK YOU for POSTING THIS one. Everybody should be aware of these.
