English abstract

Changing the teaching media from chalkboard to Computer- based does not only develop IT-awareness among teaching staff but also enhance their readiness to teach and quality of teaching. As a result, the students pay more attention to the lectures and in the long run students get better knowledge and understanding about the course. In the developing countries reading habit is still a practice done by quite a few people. The changing of teaching media as well as the shift from teacher-centered learning to student-centered learning has changed the way students acquire knowledge and make use of the library and multimedia facilities. Gadjah Mada University has been working hard to change the method of teaching by helping the teaching staff develop IT-based teaching materials and put them on the intranet; making teaching material databases available through the digital library; and providing easier access to the library users. In addition, IM text messaging, blogs and mailinglist have been the media to discuss and share ideas and knowledge among lecturers and students too
