Challenges of Using ICT in Education

The characteristics of modern day education are the application of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) which are becoming increasingly important in the teaching of subjects with different focus. The specificity of individual subjects makes it necessary to adapt methods of different ICT-tools used in education. Online courses and the distribution of content over the Internet will significantly impact education in the coming years and decades. The traditional school model has lost its monopoly in the process, content, methods and learning objectives. The current model of the university, which combines teaching and research and possesses property and bureaucratic background, in most cases, will be unsustainable in the next ten to fifteen years. Rather than providing information and lessons, the school will become a place of consultation and informal personal contact between students and teachers. More important than before will be practical exercises which cannot be provided online. As in any learning process an important issue is the attention paid to student evaluation. For an objective and correct evaluation challenges in an ICT-aided learning environment are great.
