long Workshop on ICT from 9:15am to 4 pm organized and funded by the Department
of Education of Central Tibetan Administration. The main objective of the
workshop is to assist the teachers in integrating ICT in their teaching and learning process. Despite facilitating
five ICT rooms, CTA took a great initiative in conducting a workshop on ICT for
the teachers. The workshop was of great benefit for the concerned teachers in
applying ICT in their work.
The resource persons of the workshop were Ms.
Tsering Tsamchoe from Mevon Tsuklag Peton
school Dharamsala, and Ms. Tenzin Youlo from Department of Finance(CTA). The
actual workshop began with a pre-assessment on ICT.
Through activities the participants were made to
have deeper understanding of the various theories and methods of teaching and
learning.
There were also power point presentation highlighting
the benefits of integrating ICT in teaching:-
ICT when used into the curriculum, it revolutionized
the learning process.
ICT keeps students engaged in their
learning using powerful tools and became creators and critics instead of just a
consumer.
It is a necessity of today’s students to
have 21st century skills
She further made very clear what is
not ICT:-
ICT is not a computer learning class
It is not a substitute for teacher
It is not a teaching tool-e.g.- teaching
using a Power-point presentation to teach
It is not learning parts of computer
machines as chapter.
Throughout the workshop they reminded the teachers
to design constructive learning activities and allow students to use technologies
to create or construct something out of the lesson they are learning.
Both the resource persons explained how integrating of
Information and Communication Technology in education helps our students in
developing higher order thinking skills like analyzing, evaluating and
creating.
At the end of the session, teachers seemed to have
found the workshop enriching and convincing. The post assessment scores also showed
that the participants have well digested ICT. The average score was 7out of 8.
