Hello everyone.

I think about your question and just add some general discussion.
In 21st century, learners need to prepare their communication skills and
using technology skill for competing and succeeding in our global economy.
In this point of view, educators should take a role of facilitator who can
promote students' skills, especially in informational technology fields. For
providing a learning environment which can promote students' communication
skill for our students, school should be prepared in infrastructure, such
as, hardware, communication channel, and also technicians.
I just thought about that we need to provide not only the equipments, but
also training to our learners. Even though I give computer low-income
family, if they do not have internet connection or they don't know how to
use it, the equipments will be nothing. Also we should not miss the ethical
issue, such as learning netiquette.
