The Birth of the Personal Computer

Forty years ago this week, at a conference hall in San Francisco, a Stanford computer researcher demonstrated the first personal computer. The device had a mouse and monitor, and featured rudimentary tools which enabled moving among documents, as well as text and graphics editing ability.

The scientist who headed the development team envisioned a computer that would assist the average office worker with everyday tasks. However, as it required 500 single key commands, the device never made it out of the lab. But many of those involved contributed to later projects which led to the PC revolution and the Internet.

ICT

In  current education systems worldwide, ICT has not been as  extensively  implemented as might be found in other fields, such as  business.Reasons  for the absence of these technologies in education vary. Some  experts  suggest it is the high costs associated with implementing these   technologies that prevents schools from using them in the   classroom.Other experts argue that the social nature of current   education systems, which require a substantial amount of personal   contact between teachers and their students, prevents these technologies   from being better integrated in the classroom setting.

Uses

The  use of ICTs in education extends beyond equipping classrooms with   computers and an Internet connection. There are a wide variety of ICTs   currently available to schools and universities that can be implemented   to enhance students’ overall learning experiences in numerous ways.   Those schools and universities that have implemented ICTs primarily use   these technologies to fulfill three objectives:

Increase Networking Opportunities: ICTs helps connect schools to other schools, as well as individuals within those schools to one another. This ability to network is especially important for students in rural areas and students in developing countries.

Provide Distance Learning: With the advent of ICTs, learning has become Web-based. As a result, ICTs have started to replace correspondence schools.

Supplement Traditional Learning: One of the most common uses of ICTs in education involves students using software programs such as Microsoft Word to produce otherwise traditional written assignments.
