Disadvantages of Using ICT in Education

Students may become too reliant on computers and not learn other skills thoroughly enough. So for example, they may use the computer to do some mathematical activities rather than learning and understanding themselves. They may be able to get a good result, but not really know what it means. Students may not fully engage in research and experiments, but use search engines for resources. Manual research, like going into libraries, and talking directly to people is often better and helps students gain a better understanding of the information they are getting. 

Another important drawback to using ICT in schools is the fact that computers are expensive. As you know ICT items are very expensive and even after purchasing them they have maintenance problems. This may be seen as a good thing by my opponents but on the other hand there will be little money left over for other significant costs.
