Reflection

During our school days, our teachers use traditional way of teaching. There were no computers in schools for students in those days. Classroom was fully teacher centered .There wasn't any integration of ICT in classroom those days. Classroom use to bored because teacher will be the one talking and students listening whole day. Whenever we were provided with the task we used to visits library, reads books and seek help from our seniors. There was little opportunity for us to explore. Sometimes we even do not get the information we are seeking for .I still remember when i was in class four i was scared to go to classroom because despite trying hard i didn't complete my work because i couldn't find the information even after going through library book and asking elders. 

Now in this digital world, I could see many schools have available computers in a lap. During my teaching practice i could notice lots of difference in teaching when compared to our days. Schools have computer lap ,teacher carry their laptop in classroom to teach ,students are taken in lap to teach by using ICT .I even used ICT in classroom to teach science (parts of flower,curcit, electricity).i could see my students were learning better when i integrate ict in classrom.They could communicate with each other and understand better.

 We have available laps in our college too .computers in our college is properly used by students for education purposes. Lecturers and student teacher  in our college make   good use of ICT  in teaching and learning . I learn better learning through use of ICT in the class because I could see ,hear, interact when we are taught using ict(videos, pictures)  unlike olden days, we donnot have to fear of not getting information. We can easily get access to information within few mintues without going to anywhere. We can get access to information by sitting on chair and making us of computers. Whenever lecturer provides us with difficult task I now preferred to access the Internet to .explore

Integration of ICT  is not only for teaching, it can be used for discussion and communication .Our classmates  use wechat ,messanger,whatsapp disscussion forum for learning purpose.it is helping us in learning better, besides we could build strong team spirit .Knowing the importance of integration of ICT and its benefits to learners ,I will integrate ICT  in future while teaching .
