QUESTIONS
MAIN QUESTION
For what do you use computers/internet at school?
Respond-We use computers for an interactive learning at
school, to promote digital education and also to teach people how
to use computers. Powerpoint presentations are the most
common thing for which we use computers at school. Actually this
not only promotes digital education but also enables students to
enjoy their education
3. • SUB QUESTIONS
• How often do you use computers and with what result?
• Respond-We don’t use computers too often in our schools; we use
it only in our computer class or to make different projects. Again
PPT’s are the most common way of illustrating our project
• Does the use of computers always improve the standard of lesson?
• Respond-Yes, it not only makes the learning interesting but also
interactive at the same time. Students tend to get more involved
in digital education than book education which enables the
teacher to conduct a healthy and interactive session.
• Do you do your homework, projects, compile a portfolio, do a
research for school digitally? What do you feel about that?
• Respond-This depends upon the kind of projects that we get.
Research work is usually done with the help of internet and
projects are sometimes made on the PPT. This helps a student a
lot as he is capable of doing a work digitally than working on
paper.

about their use and how do you use them?

children mainly because of 2 reasonsStudents will always engage themselves to their phones and not listen to
teacher
There will be discrimination amongst children based on mobile phones
they have.

QUESTIONS
MAIN QUESTION
For what do you use computers/internet at school?
Respond-In schools computers I use computer for learning to use
different software’s. Computers are also a way of improving the
understanding of a chapter or lesson. Also computers are now attached
to some peripherals or hardware like touch boards which makes learning
interactive and fun. Internet is also used as a reference tool and is very
helpful; also cloud storage feature helps us to submit our project to the
teacher without carrying usb drives. Internet is also essential for smart
boards to update with their server.

QUESTIONS
MAIN QUESTION
How should the computer or internet be utilized at
school?
• Respond-Children should have anytime access provided
the computer resources are utilized for educative
purposes i.e. anytime during recess free period etc.
9. • SUB QUESTIONS
• What etiquettes should followed while using computers at school?
• Respond-Children should properly use there given devices and they
should not damage the hardware while using or working upon it. Devices
should be used carefully and the equipment should not be man-handled.
• Does the use of computers always improve the standard of lesson?
• Respond-Obviously, when you have internet access then you can gather
a lot of information upon the topic or chapter you are reading or
studying. The internet can also provide facts and references for the topic
thus enhancing the standard of the lesson.
• Should homework, projects, compiling portfolios, research, and etc. be
done for school digitally? What do you feel about that?
•
Respond-Both seem equally appealing to me. Doing projects digitally
for e.g. a collage, saves a lot of time and a lot of paper but if we see on
the other, side doing or making such projects or collages manually can
enhance all round information and effort can be put in like you gather a
couple of books and you select specific information and use it in your
project; digitally only a few buttons are pressed. Manual work helps in
fine-motor development.
10. • Should mobile phones be allowed at school? If
yes, then how should they be used?
• Respond-Children should be allowed phones at
school but the phones should only register
incoming calls and outgoing calls can be
forbidden by giving them an empty sim card (0
balance) and the use of internet should be
prohibited on such cell phones. Children should
have access to the lobby phones for any urgent
calls. They should be monitored while doing so.
