How do I integrate ICT into my Lessons?

As a teacher of Mathematics, I use Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to support and enhance the learning of my students.

I do this by using a variety of software applications, digital resources and learning tools. In Mathematics, I mainly Podcast my lessons because it is the easiest way to work with my Senior Students. To find out more on podcasting visit this page.

Other things I do to integrate ICT into my classroom is to:

• Use mind mapping software to create concept maps
• Use powerpoint presentations to introduce topics with audio (excellent for keeping the class quiet)
• Allow a setup of an internal Blog for my students to work collaboratively on set Mathematical Tasks
• Create a simple podcast or vodcast and place it on the school intranet for my students to access
• Create podcards for revision in powerpoint
• Use Online assessment and reporting for my students to access
• Use Graphics Calculators
• Show Mathematics Videos

I have also started to use mobile phones in class as a learning tool.

Here is the scenario:

Student: "Sir, I understand it when you explain it to me in class. When I go home, I forget how to do it".
