ICT integration in the classroom teaching.
August month.
We are towards the end of twenty first century and we have seen many transformation around us. As a teacher one transformation I have seen in teaching is use of ICT to carry out the teaching and learning process. We are in digital era and if we don't equip ourselves with sound ICT knowledge then we are not moving forward with the rest of the world. Thus imparting adequate ICT knowledge to our children has become paramount importance as a teacher and a parents.
This academic year started like any other past years. All the students and teachers gathered back to school with lot of excitement and curiosity. But this year slowly brought us lots of unexpected surprises. This pandemic came uninvited and stirred the whole world! Implementing ICT in teaching and learning process soared in every nation. Even in a small country like ours our government and ministry of education was fast enough to come up with different ICT based teaching and learning. Teaching through BBS television and Google classroom quickly came into action.
Different school across the country adopted different online mediums to teach and reach to their children. Different mediums were chosen or selected based on the convenience and feasibility. Schools in urban areas were comfortable with Google classroom and BBS television due to fast internet speed and maximum use of television. Schools in the rural areas relied on best suited social media to teach, in my school most of us teach through wechat as most of our children are too small to participate in google classroom. All the teacher in my school teach through wechat, class teachers have created group chat and we follow strict norms so as to make teaching and learning meaningful and fruitful. We have timetable for different subjects and when its our turn to teach through online we make sure to put in our best to make our teaching and learning more interactive and useful.
We even conduct online test and do online corrections.
