Beschreibung
The evolution of modern technologies started over 100 years ago. Many means of technologies were emerged. The telegraph, for instance, was the first means of technology. With the development of the science, other means were emerged such as, telephones, radios, television, early desktop computers. In the early 1980s, the personal computer was developed. The emergence of Internet in particular today (World Wide Web) has resulted in a computer that is used for more than computing device but also for communication, media creation, learning, and so much more. For a long time, schools have used traditional tools as part of instruction and learning such as blackboard, books, pencils,to name but a few. Nowadays, modern classrooms contain text books, televisions and videocassettes player and computers and many secondary schools have classrooms that contain equipment used in commercial and manufacturing settings. All of these tools could be considered broadly as part of 'educational technology". Educational technology, thus, is any means that are used to support teaching and learning (Mathematica Policy Research,2003:3). Therefore, bringing media into the classroom is of great importance.
