a)      Helps teachers to carefully plan and organize the content. For example, usually teachers use some specific criteria to select media in relation to a nature of a topic i.e. are media available to carter for a given topic.
b)      Deliver instruction that is standardized. All students receive the same amount and type of learning materials when videos or computers re used.
c)      Time needed for giving instructions to learners

    iii.            Encourage individualized learning i.e. a learner can learn at his or her own time and place of convenience.
    iv.            Make use of the power of pictures, words and sounds to compel attention.
      v.            Help learners understand ideas too complex for verbal explanation alone.
    vi.            Help learners overcome the limitation of time, size and space when media like computer, video/TV are employed.
