ICT Class

 

ICT stands for Information and Communication Technology. We have a separate class for ICT where we learn everything about ICT. We learnt the importance of using the tools of ICT to teach and how it can be put to use in everyday life to help students learn and understand better.

The following were the input in our ICT session.

• We learnt about ICT, its uses, scope, advantage, disadvantages and its role in education. We also learnt the various steps being adopted by the government in this regard. Various e-platforms like Swayam helps children across the country learn online for free.
• We learnt how to use a computer and the internet connection to create a Gmail account.
• As basic as it sounds, there are a lot of student-teachers who are first-generation learners and graduates. They may not have had access to a lot of these facilities earlier. So for the benefit of all everything about Computers and the internet were taught from scratch.
• We were also taught to connect projectors to our laptops.
• We learnt about what a blog post is. We were also taught about the blogger application and how to create a new blog in it. It helped us understand that anybody can be a blogger.
• With this, the first ICT session came to an end.

Activities given:

• To create an edu-blog as a part of our curriculum assignment for record purposes. This edu-blog records the daily activities that take place as a part of our B.Ed course.
• To create a presentation choosing any topic from one of the B.ed course subjects (apart from pedagogy) and use the presentation as a tool to host a seminar for fellow student-teachers.
