Internet as a ICT tools
 What is ICT?

 During last decade of twentieth century there

was extraordinary development in information
and communication technology (ICT) which led
to a transmutation of processes and practices in
almost all aspects of human activities.

 Information and communication technologies

(ICTs) are the technologies used in the
conveying, manipulation and storage of data by
10
electronic means.
 Information and Communication
Technologies
 Information is data that has been sorted and arranged.

 It consists of organized facts and opinions people receive during

daily life.

 Changing data into information is called data processing or

information processing.

 It involves gathering, organizing, and reporting data so it is useful

to people.

 It is often done using information technology.

 ICT Tools

 Radio, television, video, DVD, telephone (fixed line & mobile),

satellite systems, computer and network hardware and
software; (equipment and services associated with these
technologies, such as videoconferencing and electronic mail.) ,
blogs

Forums
LCD, PC Search
OHP,
TV/VHS, Whiteboard, Engine,
Blackboard Phone,
Wireless Phone Interactive Blogs,

 Information and Communication
Technologies
 People often use the terms information and communication
together.
 These terms are related, but each means something different.

 Two words we need to know to understand communication

technology are data and information.
 Data includes individual facts, statistics (numerical data), and
ideas.
 These facts and ideas are not sorted or arranged in any manner.
 What is Communication?

 Communication is simply the act of

transferring information from one place to
another.

 Exchanging Information from

computer to another computer

 The classic communication system is made up

of an information source, an encoder, a transmitter,
a receiver, a decoder, storage, retrieval, and an
information destination.


 Scope of Internet as a ICT in
 ICT as a tool Education
to innovate teaching-learning
practice via Internet (i.e. digital content,
multimedia, teaching-learning methods, learning
environment)
 ICT as an administrative tool (i.e. education
management information systems (EMIS)
 ICT as an expanding learning opportunity (i.e.
distance learning, e-Learning)
 ICT as a facilitator of higher-order thinking
skills (i.e. learner-centered, self-directed
18

learning, tailored learning)

Traditional v/s Internet
based ICT education
Approach

 Psychology of using Teaching Aids
which include ICTs
 Hear is an effective saying

 I hear, I forget : Verbal description only are not

enough for learners to remember and understand.

Visualization of objects especially in science and

technology is important

 I see, I remember: Knowledge that is gained through

the site is more colorful, accurate and permanent. It

is said that 80% of our knowledge is gained through

our eyes.
ICT can help learning

 Develop understanding

 Speed and automatic functions of ICT can

enable teachers to demonstrate, explore or

explain aspects of their teaching, and

students learning, more effectively e.g. use of

a spread sheet to perform calculations in

order that patterns can be concentrated on

ICT can help learning

 Extend access to sources

 the capacity and range of ICT can enable teachers and

students to gain access to historical, recent or

immediate information, through, for example,

accessing information on CD-ROM or the Internet

 Enhance enquiry skills

 search for and compare information from different

sources
ICT can help learning
Enhance the communication of ideas

 communicate with other people, locally and over

distances, easily and effectively

 present information in ways which are accessible in

different forms for different audiences.

 Does ICT increase access to
learning opportunity?

 Education opportunities in dispersed locations

where conventional schools are not viable;
 A choice to students and parents of what they
want to learn i.e. Choice based credit system
(CBCS);
 A safety net for school drop-outs so they do not
lapse into illiteracy;
 Alternative venue to schools.
24
 Second chance education.
 Internet based ICT in
Agriculture using web
applications

 There are many web sites available for getting

information regarding agricultural products.

 One of them is “Soil Health Card” a 12th

National e-governance award winner. It

reflects soil testing report (Current

composition of soil) and provides information

25
about which crops farmers should cultivate
 Green ICT
Green ICT refers to an approach in reducing the energy and

other resources consumed and the emissions and other

waste produced across the ICT lifecycle – from manufacture,

procurement and use of ICT in an organisation to its re-use

and aims to improve environmental sustainability of

organisations. Specifically, Green ICT as applied to the use

of ICT resources aims to:

 Reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions during ICT

use

 -Reduce environmental impact of disposal of ICT waste

26

products
 Steps towards Green ICT
Reducing Power Consumption of ICT equipments.

 Going Paperless

 Buying Energy-efficient ICT equipments

 Disposal, Re-use and Recycling ICT Equipments

 Server Optimisation and Virtualisation

 Indirect ICT Savings
