- W2107305919 abstract "Introduction Rapid advances in information technology have provided new learning methods and environments. This has been the case for the teaching of librarianship in Iran, which has a 40-year history. More advancement is needed, however, and Iranian LIS programs need more use of technology and an examination of methods of delivering instruction. This article examines the role of IT and ICT in education, and ways that they can improve LIS instruction. Literature Review A number of studies have been done on the effect of IT and ICT in LIS teaching. Tafreshi (1997) found that more than 80 percent of the population studied did not find LIS programs suited to the needs of the profession. Jowkar and Hamdipoor (2001) wrote about the need to review the BA curriculum and suggested instruction in IT and ICT. Hayati (1998) also assessed the effect of IT on teaching library science and expressed the need to review the curriculum. Tahouri (2006) did further research along these lines and made suggestions for change, including reviewing programs of universities in Tehran, Mashhad, and Al-Zahra University. Torkiantabar (2007) recounts the results of a 1984 study of LIS programs in the UK and the attention given to IT. The literature reveals that many scholars are scrutinizing Iranian LIS programs and asking for review. Information and Communications (ICT) Asnafi defines ICT as the technologies that help us record, store, process, retrieve, transfer, and receive information. IT and ICT are dependent on each other. IT may refer to the machine and ICT to its products (Asnafi 2005). The concept of IT has been expanded to include electronic communications, and the use of the term ICT reflects that (Information Technology 2008). IT may imply one-way communication , while ICT implies interaction between the user and the data (Zamani 2005). IT can be considered the convergence point for communication (Mahdavie 2000: 32). Zins defines IT as the scientific study of products, services and information systems (Zins 2007). IT also refers to a set of disciplines and techniques used in handling and processing data (Rahadoust 2007:138). IT and ICT and Their Effects on Teaching and Learning has changed the way people live, work, and learn. The use of technology in education is one of the main challenges for education policy makers (Zalzadeh 2006). Traditional methods of education are no longer able to meet the needs of today's learners. New technologies provide opportunities including the ability to tailor learning to the individual (Aminpoor 2007). There are three approaches to IT and ICT in education that are often discussed: * IT and ICT in the form of lesson units or workshops for students and teachers. * IT and ICT as a means of information storage and retrieval and a method of doing research * IT and ICT as the channel for delivering instruction There is no discussion of content in these approaches. The influence that IT can have on teaching methods depends on the knowledge and skills of students and teachers, and the implementation of IT and ICT in courses (Kousha 2006). The effect of IT and ICT varies across disciplines. Medicine has been more affected than history, for example. Regardless of the discipline, however, the advantage is that students and teachers are not limited by time and place (Fattahian 2004). Educating Librarians in IT and ICT Librarians need special knowledge and skills including techniques of using software and hardware, selection and assessment of resources, use of information systems, ability to search networks and databases, as well as problem-solving and research skills and the ability to teach users. Librarians should acquire these skills before entering the job market. The LIS education system must prepare librarians to enter the field through proper college curriculum (Tahourie 2006). …" @default.
