Integration of new technologies into instruction and curriculum enables learners to have a wider exposure and range of resources e.g. researching projects, topics using the World Wide Web and Internet;======

=Situated Practice= Teachers need to consider the local context of their learners and ‘situate’ digital literacy practices approaches in relation to their particular students in their particular communities “…according to the geographic location, socioeconomic status, gender and cultural diversity” (Snyder and Prinsloo 2007).  =Blended learning= “//Blended Learning is learning that is facilitated by the effective combination of different modes of delivery, models of teaching and styles of learning, and founded on transparent communication amongst all parties involved with a course.////”// // (Heinze and Procter 2004) // Combined use of online technologies and face-to-face (f2f) communicative experiences provide for the inclusion of social interaction that is required for learning. Student interaction and socialisation as well as opportunities for teacher/student dialogue in f2f experiences ensure clarity of understanding and productive communication and therefore are preferable to e-learning. Extending f2f lectures/tutorials to online experiences is recommended, not simply a repeat of the f2f activity but extending topics and experiences.
