Thoughts for tech impact on higher education

The Ninth International Conference on Information(ICI9) which held in Kuala Lumpur was to discuss about the impacts of technologies on higher education. The theme of the conference is " Learning Innovations in Higher Education" which will also explore new ideas and innovations in open learning, mobile learning and e-learning and their impact on higher education. I think that this conference will be very important for us because now we are entering the technology era so mostly the devices that we used are mostly electronic devices.

E-learning would be a useful method us to use in higher education. It is because we can simply access to the web and simply key in the info that we want to find rather than finding a book which we does not know about the contains. This will waste all the time of the students in the university. Besides that, we can get all the lecture without missing a word.

ICI9 is aimed to stimulate and exchange ideas and experiences among participants institution which I think is good because we can know how is the teaching and learning method of other countries. Like in Australia, they have a system that can help to check for plagiarism which the student can easily check whether their articles is the same or not.


Therefore, I think that this conference should always be held so that we can keep up to latest technology that are useful for higher education use.
