ReplyDeleteWe still have a long way to go Sthe. I have realised when we were doing the survey that the school do not utilize ICT effectively. We still have many school which have educators who cannot use or who have no interest in learning about ICT. Not studying, just learning. They do have all the resources at their disposal. There are school which have the Gauteng on line facility, but i tell you, the facility is not utilized because they are still waiting for a training by the department. The whole school. How is that.
