Journal Title: International Journal of Physical and Social Sciences (IJPSS) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
The focus of this paper is to examine the effect of using an ICT to both increase academic support to students, and to teaching skills. Science is one of the most fundamental natural subject which involve the study of universal law and the behaviors and relationship among a wide range of physical concepts and phenomena. Experiments are the hallmark of science. Scientific attitude and vision can be developed by allowing young minds to perform experiments in lab and observe and understand the scientific phenomena to happen. In present given scenario of ICT tools i.e. Virtual lab based method of teaching science is emerging as one of the most powerful method of teaching science. The present study was conducted to see two common dimensions of change in learning environments that emerged across the country: changes in teachers’ knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes; and changes in the use of ICT tools to promote students’ learning. Both dimensions relate to shifts in pedagogical paradigms that appear to be prerequisites to effectively using ICT to support students’ learning. Our findings indicate that these shifts must not just occur at the teacher level, but must take hold throughout the educational system and must accompany sustained investment in infrastructure, learning resources, curricular frameworks, and assessment.
