The first session of EDN 418, for ict in education was started with a presentation on the work plan and briefing on the assessment for the module. in this session, I learnt from our tutors that there are 5 ICT tools; i. ICT as information tools.
ii. ICT as communicative tools.
iii. ICT as constructive tools.
iv. ICT as co-constructive tools.
v. ICT as situational tools.
Our tutor, Mr. Chenga Dorji showed us the video clips on Digital Natives vs Digital Immigrants. Watching this video, really made me to give a deep thought of teaching the new generation of ICT world students by me with limited ideas on this technology. They are well equipped with the gadgets like laptops, desktops, i pads, i pods, cell phones, play stations and so on with various social networking apps. A 4 years old child could fiddle cell phone and laptop without much problem, think what he would do when he grows up a little. Reflecting on the video clips and child using the ict gadgets pinches me that how I would deal with such children with my limited ideas on ICT. But thank God, Mr. Chenga has imparted the ideas and skills on ICT, which would at least help me to deal with these Digital Natives.
No wonder, children in the class are inattentive with our teaching all because of our teaching just using chalk board and charts. As it is ICT World, which has become one of the need, we need to enhance our knowledge on digital and make best use of it in the classrooms for betterment of both the learners and teacher.
Thank You
