1. Connectivism

1.1. Connectivism is a framework that believes that knowledge is attained through networking tools that are constantly changing and updating, which is why digital technology is seen to be a major tool used.

1.2. Advantage = because technology and digital media resources are constantly modernizing and updating, new knowledge is always at one's disposal.

1.3. Disadvantage = if too much value is placed on gaining knowledge through ICT, then teachers may not be considered as playing an important role in the classroom.

2. TPACK

2.1. The TPACK framework demonstrates the importance for a teacher to have a combination of content, technological and pedagogical knowledge in the classroom, rather than having one dominant domain.

2.2. Advantage = allows teacher to present innovative, engaging lessons with ICT integration.

2.3. Disadvantage = teachers who are untrained in technological domains may find it challenging to integrate technology into their lessons.

3. Blooms Digital Taxonomy

3.1. Blooms digital taxonomy is a framework that provides a hierarchy or higher-order thinking skills that can be implemented by students, using digital methods (such as blogs, quizzes etc).

3.2. Advantage = it ensures that learners are achieving each level of the hierarchy but in a more 21st century, modern way with technology.

3.3. Disadvantage = not all learners may have access to devices or connection that will allow them to develop proficiency in mastering each of the digital higher-order thinking skills.
