Documentation and IT

Documentation is a major weakness in I.T. programme implementation. How could you improve on this weakness?

Documentation is a weakness with Jamaicans. We like to talk but we do not like to write. As it relates to instructional technology, documentation is important so that information now can be preserved for the future generation or for follow-up classes or sessions.

1.There is the need for the following tools to be implemented in our schools: WIKI, photosharing, RSS, Social Networking, podcast,twitter, blog, Social Bookmarking

2.Parents need to be sensitized so that they will see the need to purchase laptop/ computer for their children.

3. Principal must ensure that these tools are introduced and implemented by staff.

If all three strategies are implemented then it is possible that information documented will see significant improvement in the learning process and programme evaluation.

Improve weakness in documentation

One way of improving weakness in documentation is to allocate time for posting comments, records and other improtant information. Good time management will allow you to be up-to-date so that your information in the blog is not irrelevant. Research and practice in how to use new technology will build one's confidence and competence.

Ways to improve on weakness

Continuous maintainance and evaluation of of an e-portfolio could improve on the weaknesses of documentation in technology implementation. This is so, as file sharing is one of the most effective ways of communicating/ sharing information today. This therefore lends itself to information being updated and transmitted between the members of the team working on the programme. The e- portfolio therefore acts in the form of a personal network, wiki, blog or social network, where persons may send necessary documentation and all parties information is updated each time this information is added. It is always viewed by all personnel involved in the development of the programme.
