This webpage has been designed primarily to:

• Provide information on the Division’s programmes and activities.

• Extend the traditional classroom experiences and provide more cost effective resource alternatives, along with more exciting learning opportunities and experiences.

• Serve as a forum where student-teachers and lecturers in general, may share their concerns and research on some of the vexing questions about their work lives, teaching, student learning and education.

• Be utilized as a tool which lecturers may use to enhance their instructional efforts and thus improve student achievement.

• Support and encourage lecturers to share their success stories, their challenges, and best practices.

• Create a good starting place for teachers who have not had the courage to venture into the world of technology. Those who are unwilling to use or learn about technology in the classroom might barely survive the next five years. However, as schools become more technologically advanced, teachers who are not prepared to understand how technology works and how to use technology will not be adequately qualified to serve their students and the education system.

• Encourage our student-teachers and other users to develop new ways of questioning and thinking about what goes on in schools.

For example:

• How do our students learn

• How do our teachers teach

• What are some of the effective instructional strategies and techniques used by teachers to generate interest in learning among learners in school and out of school

• How do schools manage the multitude of social and psychological issues and problems that confront them daily

• How do schools engage parents as partners in the education process
