The document discusses how the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) has led to a paradigm shift in education from a focus on teaching to learning. ICT allows education to become more student-centric by providing additional means of learning beyond traditional teaching. ICT complements teaching by making the curriculum more flexible and challenging with a variety of assignment options and the ability for self-paced learning. Teachers take on more of a facilitating role compared to only instructing students.
