Role of ICT in Computer Education
Abstract
ICT, or information and communication technology, has completely changed how children are taught computer skills. Educational institutions have been attempting to employ information and communication technology (ICT) to make learning more efficient and accessible due to the startling rate at which technology is developing. Many innovative teaching strategies may now be used to suit students with a variety of preferences and learning styles thanks to information and communication technologies. These strategies include integrated learning, flipped classrooms, and interactive digital content. Examining how information and communication technologies have altered conventional teaching strategies and influenced the development of computer science courses is the goal of this study. Investigations are conducted on how various information and communication technology (ICT) tools affect student engagement, retention of knowledge, and skill development. These technologies include e-learning platforms, cloud computing, virtual labs, and tutoring systems that use artificial intelligence (AI). After that, it investigates how students' use of information and communication technology (ICT) improves their ability to think critically, solve problems, and collaborate with others.
