Importance of ICT
After using ICT for several years, it made me realize that it is of great importance to us. It motivate
students in a way gaining their attention like it did to me when I was in school. When I was in class 9 and 10, I took Computer Education which
helped me to do better in other subjects. Using the knowledge from
computer education I was able to browse related information which helped
in other subjects. Similarly, FIT-101 which we studied in First year helped to prepare beautiful presentation as required in the past years. So, in the following paragraph I will be sharing some of the importance of ICT through my experiences
The First Presentation made in college in FIT class.
Finally, I realize the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education is inevitable in current society. Starting from the economic to social interactions, it’s all about technology and students should be prepared for the information society. Some roles of ICT in teaching and learning that has been cited by practitioners over the years are to motivate students, to enhance instruction, to make sure students and teachers work more efficiently and to help students learn and sharpen information age skills.

The technology’s visual and
interactive qualities can direct students’ attention toward learning tasks and
it enhances better information retention. It can also be used to
illustrate real-world relevance through highly visual presentations. When
students can see that high-level math and science skills have real life
applications, it is no longer just ‘school work’, they are more willing to
learn skills that have clear value to their future life and work.
Moreover, students who see the
application of what they are studying as authentic and real are motivated by
the application to their daily lives. Besides that, ICT can be used to enhance
instruction whereby interaction and instant feedback can be supplied to support
skill practice. ICT also allow access to unique information sources; the
internet connects students with information, research, data and expertise that
might not be available locally.
Teacher can also use many
methods like PowerPoint presentation, video lesson, Google classroom,
discussion forum, blogs, and We chat discussion, etc. Therefore, ICT has many
advantages in the education system both on teacher and student.
