I believe that computers are able to change education for the better. The use of computers enables teachers to place more emphasis on important problem solving approaches rather than tedious rote learning. Computers give both children and teachers more independence. Collaborative learning, rather than competitive learning, can be stressed. Furthermore, the technology is placed in the hands of the pupils, where it is used as a learning tool rather than as a teaching tool. So, Teacher shouldn’t use the old methods in their classes because today students used to use computer as a main tool in their learning.
There are three basic ways of using computers in schools which can be used as a tutee in programming side like in IT courses that students learn how to build a program or a website therefore; it needs understanding of the programming language that will be used to build such a program, for example, C++, Java, XML.
In the other hand, computer works as a tutor and tutoring systems present subject material, to which the learner responds. This type of material is programmed by specialists and includes drill and practice exercises and tutorials
Finally, computer works as tool that include software like word processing packages, spreadsheets, data bases, presentation software, desk top publishing .
