COMMUNICATING

AND
COLLABORATING
USING ICT
Information and Communications Technology
(ICT) can impact student learning when teachers are
digitally literate and understand how to integrate it
into curriculum. Schools use a diverse set of ICT
tools to communicate, create, disseminate, store,
and manage information. In some contexts, ICT has
also become integral to the teaching-learning
interaction, through such approaches as replacing
chalkboards with interactive digital.
Technological advancements have shifted the way
we conduct business and how we communicate
with our staff and customers. ICT allows pupils to
screen and deal with their own learning, think
fundamentally and imaginatively, take care of
reenacted true issues, work cooperatively, take part
in moral dynamic, and embrace a worldwide point
of view towards issues and thoughts. It additionally
gives pupils from remote territories access to
teachers and learning assets.
Students can collaborate on group projects
using technology-based tools such as wikis
and Google docs. The walls of the
classrooms are no longer a barrier as
technology enables new ways of learning,
communicating, and working
collaboratively. Technology has also begun
to change the roles of teachers and learners
Audio Conferencing is a meeting among
three or more persons in different
locations that typically uses handheld
wired telephones, speakerphones or
mobile phones. Since audio is used
during this conference, it is a must to
have a clear transmission of everyone's
voice
Video Conferencing is a meeting among
participants in different locations that
typically uses computer networks to transmit
both audio, text and video data. In order to
participate in a video conference, you must
have a video camera, microphone, speakers
and video conferencing software along with
your computer with internet
The main advantage of video conferencing
over audio conferencing is that participants
can see each other which allows them to
develop a stronger sense of familiarity. Thus,
video conferencing has the ability to facilitate
collaboration without requiring face-to-face
communication.
