The technology
today, also extends
to education, key
branch in the
intellectual
formation of human
beings

The technology today,

also extends to
education, key branch in
the intellectual formation
of human beings in order
to develop and acquire
learning through tools
and applications.

IMPORTANCE OF
INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY IN
EDUCATION

Comprise all
activities related
to the learning
process where
the computer is
an element of
support

For example the

simulation, aims
to enhance the
intuition of
deponent,
promote
inductive learning

EDUCATIONAL
COMPUTER
APPLICATIONS

Among them we can

mention the
computer assisted
instruction as
exercisers, tutorials,

applications packages

Corresponds to
the wide range
