ICT plays a catalytic role in enhancing learning in classroom and beyond…It enhances scope of education by facilitating mobile learning and inclusive education. It facilitates research and scholarly communication. Impact of ICT and its potential for the education field is manifold.

On 19^th of August 2019 in the sixth period I have taught English in class four for forty minutes. Before the actual session, students were asked, “How will you find the meaning for difficult words?” They said, “If we have dictionary we will see there and if not we will ask others if they know”. Then I said, “Its good idea. Now here after I will teach you how to use smart phones to find the meanings for difficult words”.

Students were asked to read the poem, ‘”No More Water”. They read in turn, a stanza each. They underlined the difficult words for them. Then I have shown them you tube video on how to find meaning using smart phones.

Then again I demonstrated them step by step on how to find meanings using smart phone practically. After that they were let to work in pairs using smart phones.

 

I have used smart phones, laptop, sound boxes, microphones, YouTube video and projector for this session. Students really enjoyed the class. They were happy and fully engaged in the lesson. 

They were sharing and enthusiastically engaged in their classroom activity. It was a successful and progressive learning. They promised that, here after they will use their parents’ cell phones while reading if they don’t know the meanings.

ICT has an important role in the world since we are now in the information age era. Technologically advanced ICT facilities have immensely helped the learners to get motivated to carry out the given tasks without any difficulties. On the other hand the workloads of the teachers were drastically reduced and the atmosphere in the class rooms were seen completely change with the coming of ICT techniques.

Nowadays ICT cannot be separated with our daily needs. On 5^th August, 2019 in the second period I have taught English (Color poem), in class four for fifty minutes. My children really enjoyed the session with full classroom participation. Students engagement was seen drastically improved. With this I have seen that, ICT in the classroom teaching-learning is very important for it provides opportunities for teachers and students to operate, store, manipulate, and retrieve information for longer period of time.

ICT can improve the quality of human life both in teaching learning and education thus it encourages independent and active learning, motivating in self-responsibility for learning.  Use of ICT in education adds value in teaching and learning by enhancing the effectiveness of learning. This I observed in my keenly motivated students in today’s class. I am hopeful my students will do better than before in my teaching subject.

With simple basic use of ICT facilities in my today’s class, I found a lot of differences especially in students’ learning and their enthusiasm in the subject. They were motivated, enthusiastic and were eager to learn and take part in every activity that we have conducted in the class.

Though it was bit of time consuming and extra work to teacher but I enjoyed a lot with students’ and was happy to successfully complete my task achieving my objective too of the teaching despite students interest in learning. Henceforth, I will always try and use one or the other ICT gadgets in my teaching and learning.

In conclusion, what I observe is, human workers retain less value, which is the disadvantage of technology and an issue that has a global impact today. But nevertheless, coming to advantages side, Students were observed improving their engagement in the lesson encouraging individual's learning collaboratively. Also students can learn so many useful life skills through technology. So hereafter I will always try to make use of ICT facilities in my most of the classes.

Even the use of these types of simple and common ICT facilities in the classroom is bringing a lot of differences in students learning.
