2.  The National Knowledge Commission (NKC) has
observed that teachers are the single most
important element of the education system and
the country is already facing a severe shortage
of qualified and motivated teachers at different
levels.
 The training of teachers is a major area of
concern at present as both pre-service and in-
service training of teachers are extremely
inadequate and poorly managed in most states.
 Pre-service training needs to be improved and
differently regulated both in public and private
institutions.

3.  NCTFE 2009 emphasised ICT in schooling as well
as e-learning became centre stage in the frame
work.
 ICT has become an integral part of today’s
teaching learning process.

4.  The integration of ICTs in teaching in general
and teacher education in particular is the need
of the day. The use of ICTs can make substantial
changes both for teaching and training mainly in
two ways.
 Firstly, the rich representation of information
changes learner’s perception and understanding
of the context.
 Secondly, the vast distribution and easy access
to information can change relationships between
teachers and taught. ICTs can also provide
powerful support for educational innovation.

5.  Time is not sufficient: most of the teacher educators
felt that comprehensive Experiences can’t be given
in the one year duration of teacher training course
and was very difficult to imbibe skills and aptitude. It
was also opined there was a mismatch between the
training student teachers get in the colleges with the
real teaching Experience they had in the regular
classrooms.
 On supportive to the above statements the
Honourable Justice Verma committee proposed to
have 2 years B.Ed. course and NCTE has suggested to
have the Blend of technology (ICT) with all subjects
and Experiences of training.

6.  Why do we need ICT?
The face of classroom is changing. The teachers
should prepare to keep up with technology
utility in the classroom. ICT is not only an
essential tool for teachers in their day to day
work, but also offers them opportunities for
their own professional development.
 Teaching with ICT the input and output time is
reduced and process time is increased. When
the process time is increased, time of students’
activities, discussion, correlation with other
subjects, brainstorming and learning etc will
increase.

7. approaches to ICT which can be used in the classroom
 1.Integrated approach: This aims at planning the use
of ICT within the subject to enhance particular
concepts and skills and improve pupils’ achievement.
This involves, Selecting the suitable ICT resources which
will contribute to the aims and objectives of the
curriculum.
 2.Enhancement Approach: this focus on the use of an
ICT resource will enhance the existing subject matter
through some aspects of the lessons and tasks. Eg.
Using an electronic whiteboard for presenting a theory
about a topic.
 3.Complementary approach: This aims at using an ICT
resource to empower the students’ learning, Eg. By
enabling them to improve their class work by taking
notes on the computer or by sending home work by
email to the teacher from home.

8.  Curricular Areas by NCTE
I. Perspectives in Education
II. Curriculum and Pedagogic Studies
