ICT 2013 - 2013 International Conference on ICT in Teaching and Learning

ICT 2013 is an educational technology conference for academics, researchers, instructors and practitioners for the purpose of exchanging information and facilitating discussion on how to improve the effectiveness of learning and teaching through the innovative use of technology, and showcasing innovative pedagogical practices using technology.
The theme is “Knowledge Sharing through Technology”. Knowledge sharing, the exchange of knowledge among individuals, is undoubtedly complementary to traditional education. By implementing an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing one’s information assets, along with the support of effective pedagogy and innovative technology, teaching and learning can be more effective and efficient without boundaries, hence bringing online education to a new era.
