Student+Learning

It has been proven that the use of ICT’s enhances and promotes student learning when used within a learning activity. “There is growing evidence that increasing the level of ICT resourcing in schools can have a positive effect on young children’s attainment in the ‘core’ subjects” (Kennwell, Beauchamp 2003). The environment and surroundings of students today is filled with digital texts (Walsh et al. 2007). Students of this generation are comfortable with a range of technology and exposure is the key in their development. It has been confirmed that visuals, graphics and sound effects encourages prediction, comprehension and vocabulary knowledge (Walsh et al. 2007).

"The Arts KLA incorporates the use of visual texts such as new media and multi-disciplinary forms and genres,to converse new perceptions and explore new ideas” (Arthurson, Cozmescu 2007). By using a digital camera, students are given the opportunity to explore different elements of Art and technology.
