Worldwide research has shown that ICT can lead to improved student learning and better teaching methods.  The National Institute of Multimedia Education in Japan reported that it has been proved an  increase in student exposure to educational ICT through curriculum integration has a significant and positive impact on student achievement, especially in terms of "KnowledgeComprehension" · "Practical skill"  and "Presentation skill" in subject areas such as mathematics, science, and social study.
On the other hands ICT has advantages and disadvantages like in this table below :

Advantages of ICT
Disadvantages of ICT
Through ICT, images can easily be used in teaching and improving the retentive memory of students.
Through ICT, teachers can easily explain complex instructions and ensure students' comprehension.
Through ICT, teachers are able to create interactive classes and make the lessons more enjoyable, which could improve student attendance and concentration.
Setting up the devices can be very troublesome.

Too expensive to afford



Hard for teachers to use with a lack of experience using ICT tools

There are several on line software references to teach English as interesting as possible. Those are prezi, wallwisher, study blue, animoto, etc.  

Education has important role for every advancement so that ICT will help to reach a more high level education. For teachers ICT is a professional resource, a mode of classroom delivery, and a source of valid and valuable text types. For students, ICT provides opportunities to communicate more effectively and to develop literacy skills including skills in critical literacy. It is a valuable tool for researching, composing and responding, and viewing and representing in English. However, if all students are to have the opportunity to develop ICT skills and achieve English syllabus outcomes, issues of equity and access to technology must be addressed.

Management Information System is a system provides information in managing organizations effectively. It is involves three primary resources: Technology, Information, and People. Those three resources are key components when studying management information systems, each components cannot be separated.
There are several technology occurs that includes as management information system, those are :

2 . HyperMedia

HyperMedia is not constrained to be text-based. It can include other media, e.g., graphics, images, and especially the continuous media - sound and video. Apparently, Ted Nelson was also the first to use this term. 
Hypermedia

The World Wide Web (WWW) is the best example of hypermedia applications.In other words, hypermedia is the generalization of hypertext to include other kinds of media: images, audio clips and video clips are typically supported in addition to text. Individual chunks of information are usually referred to as documents or nodes, and the connections between them as links or hyperlinks the so-called node-link hypermedia model. The entire set of nodes and links forms a graph network. A distinct set of nodes and links which constitutes a logical entity or work is called a hyperdocument; a distinct subset of hyperlinks is often called a hyperweb.
Nodes, links and anchors

3.   Multimedia
Multimedia uses computers to present text, audio, video, animation, interactive features, and still images in various ways and combinations made possible through the advancement of technology. By combining media and content, those interested in multimedia can take on and work with a variety of media forms to get their content across. This is an exciting new field for those interested in computers, technology, and creative career options. Multimedia can be accessed through computers or electronic devices and integrates the various forms together. One example of multimedia would be combining a website with video, audio, or text images. From the articles above, we can conclude that management information system involves three primary resources: Technology, Information, and People,. Those three resources are key components when studying management information systems, each components cannot be separated. The most important component is people, because they are the operator of two other components. If there are not people the management information system will run not well enough.
