ICT as informative tool
According to UNESCO
(2004) ICT can be broadly understood as technology that facilitates
communication, processing and transmission of communication by electronic
means. ICT is essential for improving student learning and better teaching
methods. The ICT in education is the mode
of enhancing, supporting and in calculating information within a short period of time.
We
have learned that ICT is an informative
tool. ICT as an informative tool is define as applications which provide vast
repositories of information/content to learners’ activity. For example, the
computer can provide large amount of information in different forms such as
text, graphics, sound, image and video.
We have also discussed some of the sources of information from which we can collect information like television, radio, newspaper books, journal, etc. We have also looked at some of the advantages of using ICT as an informative tool which will benefit us in our future while selecting the tools. Using of ICT as informative tools helps us to save our time, make our work easy, get appropriate information, develop information search skills, etc.

Under informative tool, Sir asked us to prepare power point presentation on ‘Is Hitler Gay?’ using different source. The main motive of letting us prepare this presentation was to explore and search facts provided about Hitler's sexuality using different search engine and check how authentic are the information provided. Through this work I learned how to get appropriate information from different sources. Being a future teacher, we have to be aware of different informative tools that we can apply while teaching and how to execute in the classroom. If we apply varieties of informative tools we get plenty of ideas, as a result, we can confer our students the clear concept. Suppose we are presenting the idea of ‘matter’, instead of just explaining, we can show them video, text, animation, graphics, and images to explain about the matter.

Searching information on Hitler's sexuality using different websites:
The informative tool does not provide information directly. Hence, we have to explore information through different sources. The various sources are television, radio, internet, newspaper and books. There are various advantages of informative tool. Through the use of informative tool, we learn to integrate relevant ideas and analyze the information. It also helps in developing information search skills as well enhance critical thinking and learn to evaluate resources on the internet. So, in future i will brief students on how to access accurate and reliable information from the internet with examples.
Thank
you
