“My relevant content, anywhere, anytime, in
             the format I want.”
Implication to teaching
• Life is tougher for future teachers as the
  students learn to…
  ▫   Open “Google” instead of open book
  ▫   Copy-and-paste instead of own writing
  ▫   Ask the bloggers instead of the teachers
  ▫   Share the answers instead of the questions
  ▫   Tweet up to the minutes
• Teacher is no longer a conduit of knowledge!!
How to teach in new ICT era?
• Focus on thinking skill
 ▫   Why?
 ▫   Alternatives?
 ▫   Analytical skills
 ▫   Knowledge creation skills
• Role of teachers:
 ▫   Teaching thinking
 ▫   Moderation of group learning and collaboration
 ▫   Demonstration of thinking skill
 ▫   Integration of ICT impact to knowledge
     acquisition in each discipline
ICT Impact on Science Teaching
•   Half-life of knowledge is shrinking
•   From oral presentation to realistic virtualization
•   State-of-the-Arts or History of Sciences
•   How can we patch piecemeal knowledge to form
    a solid discipline?
ICT Impact on Mass Communication
• Shift to consumer choice
• Demographic changes
• Needs of consumer strength/protection
  ▫ Short term: consumer guide to new media
    consumption
  ▫ Long term: media literacy
• Still there are needs of authoritative media
ICT and History
• Making history is a daily-life task
• Massive archiving of events and contemporary
  interpretation
• Any needs for an authoritative account of
  events?
• New role of historians?

•   Cyber security
•   Aging society
What are needed for ICT research?

• Computing and network facility for modeling
  and test
Use of ICT as a facilitator in doing
research
• Promote communication and information
  exchange among researchers
• Collaboration between academic sector and
  industry
• Access to information

• Many things can be done – blogs, discussion
  groups, online library

More to explore…
• open innovation
• intellectual property market
Challenges
• Students:
 ▫ Access to knowledge: acquisition methods,
   devices, tools
 ▫ Collaboration: tools, community
 ▫ ICT capability & Non-ICT capability
• R&D:
 ▫   New ICT-based research methods
 ▫   Networking for researchers
 ▫   Test-bed: platform for innovation
 ▫   IPR and global knowledge conduit
