This presentation is about the need, importance and role of ICT in Mathematics Teaching. This presentation is specially prepared for B.Ed. Sem. II Mathematics Pedagogy Students for online interaction due to Covid 19 pandemic in the period of lockdown.

1. Need & Importance of ICT in
Mathematics Teaching
Principles of Selection
&
Integration of Media

2.  ICT can be broadly defined as “technologies that
facilitate, by electronic means, the acquisition,
storage, processing, transmission, and disseminating
of information in all forms including voice, text,
data, graphics and video” (Michiels & Van Crowder,
2001)
 ICT allows many people to generate and
disseminate information, thus playing an active role
in the process of interaction between professionals,
learners, policy makers, peers etc. (Leach & others,
2005)

3.  It offers the wide variety of services.
 It is reliable and provides interactive learning
experiences.
 It is flexible and provides comfortable
learning.
 It motivates students to learn.
 It facilitates communication and promotes
creativity.
 It also provides access to the digital library
where information can be retrieved and
stored beyond textbooks.

4.  ICT has very strong effect in education and it provides enormous
tools for enhancing teaching and learning.
 ICT supports teaching and learning processes in a range of
disciplinary fields such as the construction of new opportunities
for interaction between students and knowledge; accessing
information etc.
 ICT can have a useful effect on teaching and learning if it is used
under right conditions including suitable sources, training and
support.
 ICT also offers the potential to meet the learning needs of
individual students, to promote equal opportunity, to offer
learning material, and also promote interdependence of learning
among learners .
 The basic agent for establishing and working this system is
teachers.

6.  The term “instructional media”, according to
Romiszowski (1988)15, refers to devices and
materials employed in teaching and learning.
It include hardware like radio, television, tape
recorders, video tapes and recorders and
projectors; and, software like transparencies,
films, slides, teacher-made diagrams, real
objects, cartoons, models, maps and
photographs (Opoku-Asare, 2004).

7. • Non-projected media make learning more
concrete and real and identified non-print
medias to include: still pictures, posters,
models, educational games, transparencies,
slides, films, audios, motion picture, video
tapes, computer diskettes and realia. Realia are
real thing or objects.
1. Non-
projected
media
• They are forms of media, which could be visual,
audio and audio-visual in nature that requires
projection and electricity in their use for
teaching and learning situation. They can be
categorized into tape recorders / recording,
radio, slide projectors, over head projectors,
episcope video cassette / video disc machine
and computer instructional system.
2. Projected
and electronic
media
•Mass media consists of the various means by which
information reaches to large number of people, such
as television, radio, movies, newspapers, and the
Internet. Television, Filmstrip, non-fiction and
documentary programs have been widely used in
schools.
3. Mass media

8.  Instructional media has several benefits in
teaching Mathematics, especially in teaching
to young learners & They are :
 (1) attracting attention;
 (2) developing interest;
 (3) adjusting the learning environment and
 (4) promoting the acceptance of an idea.

9. 1.The students themselves
•Students training on each other The students are most useful resources
in the classroom. By using the students themselves, teacher can do many
things in the classroom.
2.Realia
•They are objects and teaching preparations from the world outside the
classroom that are used for teaching and learning. So, it can be inferred
that realia is unmodified real things inside or outside the classroom
which is used by the teacher for teaching learning process.
3. Pictures
•Pictures and images are one of graphic materials examples. Graphic
materials refer to “non-photo-graphic” or “two dimensional materials”
designed to convey messages and information which combines “symbolic
visual” and verbal information. Drawings, charts, graphics and also
cartoons are kinds of this media.

10. 4. Course book
•Course book is one of print media which has been used by teachers as the
guide of teaching learning . It is printed materials and information . It also
contains exercises and tasks for students. It contains material or verbal
information through print. It can also be used as basic instructional guide
by the teacher.
5. Boards
•Boards refer to blackboard, whiteboard or any board used in classroom.
•Boards can be used in various different purposes, such as: (1) notepad, (2)
explanation aid, (3) picture frame, (4) public workbook, (5) notice board (6)
public workbook (7) game board (8) explanation aid (9) picture frame etc.
6. OHP
•Overhead projector is electronic device that enables the students to see in
front of the class the material which is written or drawn in a transparent.
The transparent will be projected to the screen by using projectors.

11. 7. Flipcharts
• Flipchart is an instructional media which contains big
sheets of paper. It is mostly used to write down some
important points in group discussion. Flipchart are
portable, accessible, and easy to use.
8. Computer-based presentation technology
• Computer-based instructional media has two vital
components. They are hardware and software. The
hardware needed for this instructional media are
computer and LCD projector. This instructional media
combine both audio and visual material.

12. •objectives, learning outcomes, learner capability, learning
experience, content, variables, type of stimuli sense, or
reception characteristics.
1. Task factors
•group size and location; intellectual abilities, cognitive styles,
student interests and preferences, age, learning experiences
2. Learner factors
•instructional strategy and method, response demand, degree of
teacher control, instructional events.
3. Instructional
management factors
•cost of hardware, software, production, maintenance and staff
training.
4. Economic factors
•technical quality, ease of handling, compatibility, flexibility
•to use, durability.
5. Technical factors
•availability, management of media resources, school architecture
and equipment.
6. Administrative
factors

13.  No one teaching aid or medium is best for all
purposes
 Medium uses should be consistent with
objectives
 Users must familiarize themselves with the
content of media
 Media must be appropriate with respect to
student capabilities and learning style
 Media must be appropriate for the mode of
instruction

14.  Media are neither good or bad simply
because they are either concrete or abstract
 Media should be chosen objectively rather
than on the basis of personal preference or
bias
 Physical conditions surrounding uses of
media affect significantly the results
 Media should be worth the time, expense,
and effort involved

15.  We should choose the instructional material
that best suits our instructional objectives.
 We should use a variety of tools.
 We should check out our instructional
materials before class starts to be sure it is
working properly.

16.  Learn how to use the instructional material.
 Prepare introductory remarks, question or
initial comments we may need.
 Provide a conducive environment; arrange the
chairs, tables and the equipment and
materials.
 Stress on what is to be watched or listened to
carefully.
 State what they will be expected to do with
the information they will learn.
 There is need to summarize or review the
experience.
