''ICT@Schools - Resource Book for Standard 8 '''
=Introduction=
This resource book has two parts - computer literacy skills and computer aided learning. The section on computer literacy introduces the learners to various aspects of the
computer, the use of internet and different methods of creating documents in the form of in text documents and mind maps. The section on computer aided learning will discuss how computers can be used to integrate the learning of different subjects, namely, Mathematics, Science and Social Science by using relevant ICT tools and educational software.
This exercise has two broad objectives of integrating the computer lab into the school education process and enabling the use of computer as a curricular resource. We have
attempted to put together this resource book based on the recommendations of the National Curriculum Framework (2005).

The objective of the high school textbooks is to enable teachers and students to acquire a positive mindset about the use of computers for their learning and daily life
and also develop a working knowledge of computers and the ways of using them to represent information. It is my hope that every teacher will be able to start using the computer lab in the schools effectively for their own growth and for the classroom teaching – learning processes. Please do share your experiences in using this book. Your feedback is welcome.
The innovation in this book is the integration of ICT into the regular subject teacing-learning. The second section of the book explores some lessons from the
mathematics, science and social science subjects that can be taught using the computer, thus integrating the computer as a pedagogical tool. This will help the subject teachers in the school integrate ICTs into their teaching-learning processes as well as use it for their own professional development.
