INTRODUCTION

According to Fullan (2013) Digital technologies are permeated in our routine activities; whether we are at school, at work and during our personal engagements. Innovative technologies may have brought powerful, transformative tools which are improving on our quality of lives. Policymakers and stakeholder in education have quickly recognised the significance of certain technologies as a vehicle for socio-economic progress. Stakeholders in education are also promoting innovative pedagogical practices by using technology. In a knowledge construction setting, technology becomes a tool to help students access information, communicate information and collaborate with others. (Kozma 2003) In a similar vein, reported that;“…when teachers use technology to plan and prepare instruction and collaborate with outside actors, and when students also use technology to conduct research projects, analyze data, solve problems, design products and assess their own work, students are more likely to develop new ICT, problem solving, information management, collaboration and communication skills”.
