2. TABLETS IN SCHOOL
For the Philippine schools, even in
private ones catering to children
of the well-to-do families, the
so-called Tablet-for-learning is
still futuristic .
Given, however, the recognized
impact of technology in
education, the future may not be
too far away.

3. Today..
Books are still the
primary medium of
instruction in most
schools.
But there are now
perception that virtual
literacy may very well
ease out textual print
literacy.

EDUCATION

5. The disadvantage of
using books for learning
are debated upon.
The load of books and
workbooks for every
subject is backbreaking
due to their weight and
size.

6. In developing countries,
one-book for every student
is still a goal, not a reality.
Publishing and printing
millions of books for
millions of public school
children are too expensive
for the public purse.
I cannot afford to
buy books
because it’s too
expensive.

7. Today, technology
is being viewed as a
savior.

8. Computer games have been adopted in
developed countries as a learning technology
along with other audio-visual aids to teaching-
and-learning.

9. FROM STUDIES….
Educational video gaming
has been shown to
inculcate competencies
that relate to learning
concentration, lasting
memory recall and higher
visual literacy.

12. In De la Salle School, the future is now.
Administrators, teachers, parents and
other stakeholders have met to discuss
the use of Tablets as a primary learning
tool to replace the textbook.
It was argued that young students
carry many heavy books to school,
which can be physically burdensome.

14. Information technology product manufacturers have given the De La
Salle school support by way of customized tablet designs that re
conducive to higher thinking, constructive and participative teaching-
and-learning.
