Questions
Why use technology in education?
![Page 6: FOOD, HEALTH AND EDUCATION FOR ALL: THE ROLE OF DISTANCE LEARNING](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051401/56814530550346895db1f789/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Aspirations for education
1. Access – increase it
2. Quality – improve it
3. Cost – reduce it

Sugata Mitra (NIIT)‘Children from 8 to 13 years old came rushing to the hole in the wall. Within an hour they were browsing. In a week they could do most of the common functions on a PC, cut and paste, drag and drop, copy, paste, rename and save files and so on. In a month, they were downloading and playing games from the Internet. Researchers watched with incredulity. The media exploded with stories’.

Sugata Mitra (NIIT)
‘Hundreds of children flock around them all day long. Their understanding is instinctive and incredibly accurate. They want a keyboard but we don’t know how to build one that will survive in the open’.
