More...Stuff

Well, as this is an academic blog after all, you have to have things that are...academic.

So, please feel free to look through the "Lil' Info" section (bottom of page) where I have linked to some of the websites and articles about, simply put, computer in education. (Duh!)

How do we use computers in the schools? And how will they benefit us? What are some of the advantages of using computers in teaching? Using computers in Schools tells you more.

However, the implementation or the encouragement of computer use in schools is being debated by the government, the parents and the teachers, even today. Well, what about the students themselves? What do THEY think?

And finally, undeniably, the computer provides us with access to knowledge and information we have never thought possible, through the internet. I mean, even you, reading this, is by computer use, and the internet. As parents, or teachers, we do not want to deny our children and young charges the benefits and everything that the computers and the internet has to offer. But how do we shield and protect our children from the likes of online paedophiles, pornography and online bullies and abuse? How do we keep them safe? Read up and explore this: Computers and the Internet - safe surfing?

Happy reading!
