Abstract

Computers are not only for saving data and playing games. Computers have proven to have a more crucial role in society as they play as a mean for learning.

Recently, developing a high learning efficiency using technology has been of main interest for many learning institutions. Nevertheless, taking full advantage of this potential requires considering the teaching/learning procedure in new ways as well as to master the technology itself.
