Module 9: Activity 4: Whole school conditions for ICT integration

Vision idea: 

At Pares Secondary School we envision a plant that is highly secured and ICT friendly through the following:- 

•  The use and application of up-to-date ICT tools.

• The use of online and offline modes of ICT to support the teaching and learning process.

• The availability of on-site and just-in-time technical support for teachers which are flexible and extendable beyond the classroom.
• The involvement of parents and communities.
• The availability of sufficient computer facilities and digital resource materials
• The availability of reliable internet connection.

After the activity:

What have I learnt about whole school conditions for ICT integration:

A school where ICT is to be integrated is expected to :- 

• show change
• collaborate with other schools and the community at large
• have ICT infrastructure in place
• participate in project-based learning
• make use of the elements of 21st learning
• incoorperate ICT in the curriculum
• utilize student-centred environment
• show transformation of teaching/learning
• distribute leadership amongst the staff to allow for collaborative, innovative and adaptive decision-making

What I feel is my biggest challenge in achieving ICT integration in my school:
My biggest challenge would be financial aid for the installation and maintenance of infrastructure and security.
