The ICT Advantage

The Power of Reliability	Reliability is a commitment we make to our customers. It means confidence. It means assurance. It means that our customers can trust that the product they are receiving is designed, tested and proven to operate under the most demanding conditions. This is the power of reliability.
Quality	Our approach is simple - we refuse to compromise when it comes to quality. We pride ourselves on the high quality of our products and customer service. Using only quality components, we design and manufacture all of our products in our state-of-the-art engineering lab and factory. This means that we have control over quality at all stages of production and that you are receiving a product you can rely on - always.
Innovative Thinking Innovative Design	We set our standards high and then we aim to surpass them. We do this by investing in the continuous improvement of our products and services by building a team that is knowledgeable and dedicated to ensuring that we exceed our customers' power needs.
The Difference is the People	Innovative Circuit Technology prides itself on innovative thinking and technological advances. But our company is not run by technology - it is run by people. We recognize the value of a strong, reliable team in order to operate smoothly, so we have assembled a staff that is dedicated to achieving high standards of service. This means that we are always available for unlimited questions or concerns; that we put customer product satisfaction first; that we listen, and then we work to find solutions.
Durability	At ICT, durability means long lasting - under all conditions. Each of our products is extensively researched, tested and proven before it leaves the factory door. With attentive and skilled staff at every stage of the design and production process, we create products that can withstand the most extreme conditions.
Efficiency	Efficiency means many things at ICT. It means a streamlined production process in which quality is controlled with meticulous attention to detail. It means that we can process orders with speed and accuracy. It means high performance products that utilize switching technology. And it means that we are available to address your questions and concerns - quickly and with expert knowledge.
Building Relationships	Building reliable relationships is just as important to us as building reliable products. Relationships with our employees, with our distributors and with our customers are what make our business strong and enduring.
Unlimited Support	We have assembled a team that is knowledgeable, friendly and available for unlimited customer questions, concerns and feedback. Our continuous communication with our customers allows us to adapt to their power needs.

Disadvantages                               

 Disadvantages of the use of ICT in education Without discussing more advantages of ICT, that they are without counting on the delivery of a range of benefits, again there are some risks of using ICT in education which should be alleviated through appropriate mechanisms, as cited from authors [11] that are part of this study. Below we list some disadvantages of using ICT in education: ”ICT can create a partition, digital gap within the classroom, where students are more familiar with ICT and will have more benefits, will learn faster than others un familiar to technology; Can remove the attention from the main goal of the learning process to develop ICT skills, which may be a secondary goal in this process; May affect the connection process between teacher and student, as ICT become a communication tool instead of face to face communication, so the distance of the transaction will increase; Also since not all teachers are ICT experts, they may be negligent in updating the content of courses, which can slow down the process of learning to students”. But we mention and for: “Also there is a need for training related to ICT by all stakeholders; Cost of hardware's and software can be high; Exit from the concrete life and spread of virtual life; Feeling of filling that gap and loneliness; Informative learning; Individual learning; Individualism”.

Collaborative learning

2. Collaborative learning
3. Collaborative learning is an educational approach to teaching and learning that involves groups of students working together to solve a problem, complete a task, or create a product.
4. Collaborative learning is a situation in which two or more people learn or attempt to learn something together Unlike individual learning, people engaged in collaborative learning capitalize on one another’s resources and skills (asking one another for information, evaluating one another’s ideas, monitoring one another’s work, etc.). More specifically, collaborative learning is based on the model that knowledge can be created within a population where members actively interact  by sharing experiences and take on asymmetry roles.

5. E-learning 2.0

   E-learning 2.0 is a type of computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) system that developed with the emergence of Web 2.0.From an e-learning 2.0 perspective, conventional e-learning systems were based on instructional packets, which were delivered to students using assignments. Assignments were evaluated by the teacher. In contrast, the new e-learning places increased emphasis on social learning and use of social software such as blogs, wikis, podcasts and virtual worlds such as Second Life.This phenomenon has been referred to as Long Tail Learning
   E-learning 2.0, in contrast to e-learning systems not based on CSCL, assumes that knowledge (as meaning and understanding) is socially constructed. Learning takes place through conversations about content and grounded interaction about problems and actions. Advocates of social learning claim that one of the best ways to learn something is to teach it to others.
   In addition to virtual classroom environments, social networks have become an important part of E-learning 2.0. Social networks have been used to foster online learning communities around subjects as diverse as test preparation and language education.Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) is the use of handheld computers or cell phones to assist in language learning. Traditional educators may not promote social networking unless they are communicating with their own colleagues.
   Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) and Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) provide an easy to use system for flexibly delivering learning materials, activities and support to students across an institution. For the administrator, a VLE provides a set of tools which allows course content and students to be managed efficiently and provide a single point of integration with student record systems.
