In English ICT can enhance teaching and learning by enabling pupils
to:
plan, draft, revise and edit their
own writing using a word processor and other desktop publishing packages;
easily locate and read significant
parts of the text by using search strategies;
locate information quickly,
confidently and accurately;
publish writing in a variety of
forms;
have access to a wider number of
texts online e.g. newspapers;
communicate with a wider group of
people e.g. via e-mail, newsgroups, online conferencing;
integrate different media into one
text;
use a wider range of texts
to:
compare the way information is
presented;
identify the features of
particular text types;
discuss the merits and limitations
of particular text types;
investigate how reading strategies
are adapted to suit different texts.
