AS TEACHERS WHERE IS OUR PRIORITY IN TEACHING?

As we teach in schools, do we really expose the learners to real issues? I know of course many might say that the lack of resources hinders their initiatives. But see how ICT can bring various issues affecting our learners right into the classroom. It only takes creativity and thinking about the learner in this contemporary world. By using ICT in our social studies and English classes and all the other subjects, we are helping in showing, sensitizing the learners about the need for collective responsibility and also preparing them to be better decision makers.
Please share with me this information and think of other ways through which the various concepts therein can be articulated using ICT in our classrooms.
