The Internet and Future Social Science Reserch
Miochel fisher & Stephen Lyon & David Zeitlyn
This chapter considers the impact that the inetrnet and related communica-
tion technologies (IRCT) will have on the range of possibilities and prospects for
new generations of social Scientists.Contemporery and future development will
advance the scale of reserch activities that are feasible .The oppertunities and chal-
lenges posed by the internet and related communications technologies will be driven
both by changer in societies and advanmces in our methods increasing capacity to
do some of the same things either better or on a larger scale and to do new things in
relation to datacollection analysis and dissemination
Amongst the issues the chapter considers are the likely implications for
new kinds of reserch relationship ways of cleaning with increasingly vast amounts
of the potential data response to associate ethical issues the Potential form social
scince use of smart technological assistance and what further the technologiical
changes.
Conclusion
The article disputes the comon view that social science explanations depand
on discovery of law like generalisation from which discriptions our sorce of social
oiut come can be derived it distinbushes between governing. In place of nomo logi-
cal dedective aurguvements the article maintance that social explenations depend
on the discovery of causual mechanisms underlaying very social process.

ICT as aids to teaching and learningof social studies in schools
The role ofInformation and communicationtechnology inteaching and
learningof social studiesis rapidlybecoming one of the mostimportant and
widelydiscussed issues in contemporary education policy (Rosen and
Michelle,1995). Mostexpertsin the fieldofeducation agreed
thatwhenInformationandcommunicationtechnologyisused in the teaching
andlearning processes, it willimprove and boost the ego ofthe schools to a
large extent. To this end, Poole(1996)has indicatedthat computer illiteracy
is now regarded as the new illiteracy. This has actually gingered a new
andstrong desire to equip schools with computer facilities and qualified
personnel necessary to produce technologically proficient and efficient stu-
dents in developed countries of this world. Singapore schools provide a
rich diversity of experiences to help students grow holistically.
ICTs and Teacher Education
There are varietiesof approaches to professionaldevelopment of
teachers in thecontextual usage of ICTsin education. Professional devel-
opment to incorporateICTs into teaching and learning is an ongoing pro-
cess and should not be thought of as one injection? of training. Teachers
need to update their knowledge and skills asthe school curriculum and
technologies change. Twoaims of teacher training are fundamental:
teachereducation in ICTs; and teacher education through ICTs.

DEFINING THE SCOPE OF SOCIAL SCIENCE
It is important at the outset to make a distinction between applied
social science and social practitioners in NRM. Applied social scientists
apply scientific methods, theory and conceptual frameworks and undertake
social research to better understand social processes with the overallintent
of achieving improved NRM outcomes. On the other hand, social practitio-
ners are directly involved in addressing the immediate and practical issues
of NRM outside of a social science research context, although often using
the broader outcomes of social science research to do so. Social practitio-
ners may be involved for example in directlydeveloping NRM governance
structures, developing and facilitating commun ity partnerships and net-
works, or implementing effective community engagement in NRM. The so-
cial sciences consist of a number of disciplines that study human aspects of
the world. They differ from the arts and humanities in so far as the social
sciences emphasise the use of scientific method, including quantitative and
qualitative methods. They differ from the natural sciences in sofar as the
focus is broadly on human behaviour and human interaction with the physi-
cal and social environment. Furthermore, while the natural sciences utilise
the scientific method to investigate the objective and observable environ-
ment, social sciences also apply

Conclusion
While there has been an upswelling in interest inapplied social science and
NRM in the last 10 years, the scope of social science contribution to NRM has been relatively
narrow and fragmented within specific policy-directed and disciplinary areas of enquiry. In
relation to social science methods, while there continues to be a focus generally on social
indicators or other quantitative assessment methods, there is a need to explore a wider array
of methods, including both interpretive and mixed methods approaches if a more meaningful
enquiry is to continue. From a social science perspective, the narrowness of scope is not only
evident in the application of social science methods, but also in the contribution of social
science knowledge more broadly. While trying to avoid a disciplinary based
compartmentalisation of social science, each of the many social science disciplines, associated
subfields and domains have the potential to make a valuable contribution to social science
enquiry in NRM, ei ther through the direct ap plication of theory and conceptual frameworks
or the reap plication of theory and framework s from otherwise very different contexts
