Abstract

The emergence of new technologies coupled with e-learning has become the main focus of teaching and learning. The dominance of ICT especially in distance learning convinces both learners and instructors that technology delivers knowledge. The information delivered through internet can contain the most visual interactive capabilities required to deliver the best knowledge. The valuable component of the web based platform is combination of visual attraction, substantial contents, easily accessible, and well organized. Although a website can be seen to contain important information, the author and owner of the website play a big role in delivering true and unchallenged knowledge. Both instructors and students need to have clear vision of authentic web material. Websites that screen information before uploading can be dependable as the process involves elimination of some personal views and negative information. Most institutional websites have reputable educational information; therefore students should be encouraged to use such websites than free upload of unscreened material.
