2. Methods of Teaching Problem oriented: gradually expanding series of tasks, or extends the used concepts and functions Application oriented: It teaches the skills necessary for creating a certain type of document in the order of its structure and expansion. Menu oriented: It teaches application knowledge through the menu items of the application. Function oriented: It defines the general functions of an application system e.g. inserting, correcting, printing, formatting etc. for word-processors, and then links concrete knowledge items to them.

3. Concept oriented: It defines the concepts used by an application system e.g. cell, row, column, block, sheet etc. for spreadsheets, and then discusses the functions related to them. Abstract tool-oriented: It defines the ever expanding series of abstract tools, e.g. traditional mechanical typewriter, electronic typewriter with correction function, electronic typewriter with line formatting function etc. for word- processors, and then discusses the necessary knowledge for each level.

4. Approaches for use of ICT in the schools: Interactive boards Facilitate experiments Computer is used to facilitate experiments in natural sciences use of ICT is a way to improve the experiments and to make the processes more visible and in other cases the experiments would not even be possible to do without computers the schools can use standard programmes, teachers can also developed their own programmes to support experiments they want to do together with their students . As experiments are mainly a part of science subjects this was a methodology more commonly used in science subjects than in other subjects.

5. Video and sound PowerPoint Animations Finding information on internet Internet and e-mail for communication

6. Learning platforms Learning platforms such as Moodle used as a means of communication between teachers and students are also used as a storage of the course content . The schools use learning platforms only for blended learning instruction to facilitate, support and organise classroom pedagogical practices.

7. Dissemination of information Contacts with other schools Distance education PowerPoint supported lectures, Animations used to make lectures more concrete (mainly science subjects),

8. Using internet to find information, Using internet and e-mail for communication, Websites to make information available to the public and to students, Blended learning, Out of school activities.
