Online Course for School Teachers on 'Pedagogy for Effective use of ICT'

About This Course

This course is aimed at school teachers. Teachers already face myriad problems such as varying student interest and abilities, student focus on exam testing, managing large classes, and so on. To mitigate some of these problems, teachers are often called upon to explore use of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) in their classes. However, lack of formal training in research-based strategies is a barrier to effective integration of ICT in the teaching-learning process.

This course will provide an introduction to research-based and learner-centered pedagogy for effectively integrating ICT in school education. Participants of this course will apply these strategies during the course, to design materials and activities for topics in their own domain. This will help them to become informed teachers and tackle teaching-learning problems competently.
