iCT and Education

this topic wont be coming out for exams anyway..
ICT and Education could not be seperated. More more sch in malaysia is equipped with computers with the main purpose of: let the children use them.. to surf the net for more information, to gain more knowledge.. but how correct or true it is.. statement from the optimist.. saying.. everyone will get access. children will learn more.. with media giving all the tools.. sure children will get more information..
sadly, it is not the case in Malaysia.. only selected sch or rich sch get access to ICT. See, those poor, village sch.. do they get this tech?.. even if they get the technology.. will they be able to utilised it? no telephone line=which means, no internet access... and to further maintain the ICT, who would want to pay? gov isnt supporting enuff in terms of financial.. at the end of it.. ICT in the poor place would then be abandoned.. so where is the use of ICT??? would techno savy kids be produced in this secluded area? i beg to differ..
on the contrary, kids or teenagers like us living in the city should be thankful.. we come from background where we have access to mostly everything.. computers, internet, satelite Tv and many more.. but we kind of taking things for granted and never appreciate it... The pessimist would then argue that those who have the control and power will have access and the rest would just be left out... it's sad... for me.. when i could not get access to internet for minutes, or connection is too slow, i will start to complain.. but screw the government.. with MSC they are supposed to give us a good connection.. but our service provider give us lame services.. where is the 2mbps connection as being propogate by the IPS.. ?

A question that everyone needs to think for a while is:
who benefited from this ICT introduction? big company providing us with the technology?
who get access to it? all of us? hmmmm
would there be a follow up or a maintenance after the introduction?

that's all..

today's tutorial, the last one of YKT 214 has the least ppl.. only 3 ppl in the class?? and tutor was discussing about the exam Q.. media global and imperialism.. hmmm.. i'm not in the favour of doing this kind of question/ i get frustrated everytime.. and mind you that i havent touch the reading pn wang gave us... out of the 5, i would prefer to answer the question on pandangan, gender and pekerjaan.. but then again, all question are tough. not easy le.. how to?

sigh, moment you finish with all assigments being thrown at you.. you have to sit for exams.. how crappy is the education system??
I guess i could not grumble much and stay on with the flow, see, me my ownself is following the norm and status quo.

enough of craps for now...
