ICT Week - Concept Note and Plan Objectives As part of the STF programme and ICT integration with the classrooms, the concept of an ICT week was discussed. In parallel, ITfC has also identified 5 schools for intensive work to integrate ICTs into all aspects of school functioning. In line with both of these initiatives, an ICT week has been planned in GHS Mallupura, Nanjangud Taluk.
The following are the objectives of this initiative:
- To build school-wide capabilities in the use and integration of ICTs into teaching-learning processes
- Explore new and ICT-enabled methods of transacting subjects that cut across subject lines and make learning relevant and contextual to the students
- Present a model of utilizing the ICT infrastructure in schools for better educational outcomes and administration
