Use of ICT in Classroom: An Enhanced Teaching-Learning Methodology

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the main factors that influence teaching-learning decision-making related to the educational use of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) in technology-rich classrooms. The main focus is on teaching and learning across a range of subjects: Hospitality, tourism, hotel, modern foreign languages, music and science, integrating ICT into teaching and learning. A practice necessitates scholars to modify the way in which curriculum Content is delivered. The notion of change brings about advantages and perceived barriers by academics that are at the fore front of the institution. This paper provides a literature review analysing the advantages related to ICT integration into classroom instruction.

To conduct the study we will collect data of 150 teachers working in Hospitality & Hotel Management Universities/Institutes rich in educational technology. The specific questionnaire will be used that includes the five major factors to obtain information about the teachers' perceptions influencing the use of ICT in the classroom.

The result of the study will be identified and characterized on the basis of five factors that influence the educational use of ICT in these classrooms, In this study we call: utility and educational setting, teacher support, availability and access in the classroom, technological expertise and access outside the classroom.

These results may be useful for promoting further integration processes for ICT in the classroom, and also for focusing teaching-Learning content.
