Disadvantages of using ICT:

One of the main problems will be the dispersion of information mainly due to the huge amount of content they find on the net, which can lead students to deviate from the main objectives of the activity, and greatly complicate reaching the goal to find what we want, because when we employ a search engine that would leave many sources to give students guidance on how to find and select the content they want to reach them really.

Sometimes the information we could find no reliable, there are many pages where the content is not scientific or simply matters of opinion, the same Wikipedia, widely used, may contain content wrong because anyone can edit the pages. The tendency of students to cut the time may come to abuse the copy and paste function, so we must make an extraordinary effort to prevent this deviation from our target. The computer can also get tired or bored by their excessive use, which lose the most important benefit is the motivation.
