The journey of ICT

There can be infinite uses of computer and of new age technology, but if teacher themselves are not able to bring it into the classroom and make it work, and then it fails. To make use of these ICT in classroom, I started making a video tutorial, which was of course our assignment, and tried out this in my class.

There was excitement in the children’s face, when I informed them that we are going to learn today’s lesson through video. As was anticipated, the children were enjoying the lesson, but I could also feel that they understood the concept too. They were participating equally through the lesson. At the same time they were conscious as they see my face on the screen too explaining the concept. Moreover, I was not tired of explaining the concept again and again. If the children could not understand in the first go, we can replay it. So, we don’t feel exhausted at the end of the class. We can also dedicate our class time to the weaker students. In that way, my class was an effective one and was very satisfied with my lesson.

Through this experience, I was motivated. I thought, if we teachers do little home works after the class, we would never get exhausted in the classroom. So, now I am going to edge forward in making some more videos and project them in the class.
