Advantages/Benefits of ICT in teaching a lesson.
ICT has become an integral part of teaching and learning process, which is why in all the countries of world ICT use has been introduced. Many developed countries have ICT already in use, which helped to uplift the quality of education. Seeing the benefits, our country too is trying to provide ICT facilities to all the schools,
The uses of ICT make the teaching and
learning much easier and understandable for both the teachers and the learners.
Though the teachers are skillful and knowledgeable, the knowledge imparted to
the learners would be much better with the use of ICT otherwise it would be
like an army going for the war without a weapon.
It’s an abstract
concept to teach the topic photosynthesis. The information given in the text
and is like the explanation done will fetch a fewer brighter ones leaving most
of the learners with full of questions. When it was taught using a video clip
showing the process of photosynthesis, many of the learners were exited and I
had noticed that there was a constructive interaction
among them. The use of the video clip really helped to explicit the ideas on
the concept taught.
As a teacher,
the use of ICT lessens our workload. We need not do the lecturing all the time
as it used to be in the past. We all know very well that we learn less through
lecturing and it was rote learning most of the time without understanding. But
these days the teaching and the learning take place through play way methods
with the help of the availability of ICT facilities. We are excess to variety
of teaching strategies, interesting activities and many more if we really make
good use of ICT sincerely. It is confirmed that many learners found learning in
a technology- enhanced setting more stimulating and much better than in
traditional classroom environment (Pedretti and Mayer-Smith 1998).
ICT has really
motivated both the students and teachers in teaching –learning processes. With
the increasing capacity of information and communication technologies, there is
a rise in new learning opportunities beyond the traditional "book-
teacher" model. Globally, the nature of learning and teaching is changing
rapidly. As new technology is being accepted as the catalyst for new learning environments,
access to communication has become crucial and we can no longer ignore.
