Promotion of Information and Communication Technology systems in school and adult education

ICT can potentially make significant difference in improving the quality of education. The National Policy of ICT in School Education envisions and provides for the development of a holistic framework of ICT support in the school system. While there have several ways in which ICT in schools are being implemented, we need to optimally use and leverage technology to achieve quality and efficiency in all of the interventions. Under this theme, we need to find solutions on how best technology can be leveraged for both school and adult education and share best practices, if any.

• What are the usual problems faced by schools while implementing ICT integration?
• Are they viable solutions in dealing with general issues?
• What are the different experiences of States in this regard?
• What are the ways in which technology can be leveraged for both school and adult education and share best practices, if any.

How do you plan to implement ICT to communities living in villages, and remote areas, who are neither educated, nor have electricity and obviously no access to mass media?

ICT for teacher can be divided into two categories. 1) Streamlining admin work: Assigning homework, communication with parents 2) Aiding teaching process: This can be divided into 2a) Demonstrating experiments - simulations & videos 2b) Granular diagnosis 2c) Customized remediation. Most ICT today is either of 1st category or of 2(a). For impact on learning, we need more of 2b and 2c. 2c might take time but there is lot of scope for 2b. For students: Practice, exploring advance stuff.

Every teacher should have a computer and internet connection at home even, so that they can explore the education in free time.

सूचना एवं विचार विमर्श तकनीक की क्रमशः जानकारी प्राथमिक शिक्षा से प्रारंभ होनी चाहिए। देश के सभी विद्यालयों में प्रवेश आयु न्यूनतम पाँच वर्ष होनी चाहिए। इससे कम आयु के बच्चों का प्रवेश अपराध माना जाना चाहिए। क्योंकि यह अबोध बच्चों पर ज्यादती है। सभी विद्यालयों में प्रथम कक्षा से ही शिक्षा प्रारंभ होनी चाहिए, प्ले ग्रुप, नर्सरी, केजी, अपर, लोअर, की दुकानें बंद होनी चाहिए। यह अबोध बच्चों का शारीरिक व मानसिक उत्पीडन है। कक्षा एक से पांच तक भाषा ज्ञान पढ़ना लिखना बोलना सिखाएं, मातृ भाषा ।

Also teachers should learn first how to use technology efficiently and what are the resources available online that can make teaching efficient, then only they can teach their students.

Huge difference in syllabus of state govt. schools with central board schools does not allow same study material usable. Also creates hindrance in globalization of learning.

ICT can only be successful, if affordable internet is available in every schools and villages. Further more we also require cheaper computers or tablets for every student. Student safety is also a concern, so that students should be motivated to use these devices for education, building creativity, not for playing games etc. So for it teachers and parents supervision is required especially for students of small age groups.
