ICT tools in teaching and learning

ICT tools in teaching and learning :

Information and communications technology (ICT) is defined as any medium used to transmit information, and is often used synonymously with the term “information technology” (IT); however, ICTs tend to be more inclusive as they quite often refer to any device used to transmit or record information including all computer application software. Examples include popular basics such as cellular phones, radio, video, and even paper. What we hear about most frequently today are innovative ICT applications such as wikis, blogs, virtual teaming and multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs). Wiki’s, blogs, Google Docs, MUVEs and other Web 2.0 applications all use ICTs to create environments that meet our changing social demands in all sectors.(Vincenti, G., & Braman, J. (2011). Teaching through multi-user virtual environments: applying dynamic elements to the modern classroom. Hershey, PA: Information Science Reference.)

The most commonly cited reasons for using ICTs(ICT tools) in the classroom has been to better prepare the current generation of Student for a Workplace where ICTs, particularly computer, the internet and related technology, are becoming more and more ubiquitous.

 

Fixing CGI (Corrugated galvanized Iron) sheet roofing : 

1. The length and gauge thickness of the sheet should be checked as per the specification before spreading the CGI sheet.
2. The overlapping side length should be at least 150 mm or 2.5 corrugation.
3. When tying the CGI sheet with purlin, at least 3 J-hooks should be pressed to the width of one sheet.
4. When drilling holes for J-hooks, only the upper part of the corrugation should be drilled.
5. The length of the hook portion should be equal to the outer diameter of the precision measured purlin.
6. Each J-hooks should have two bitumen washers and 1 cup washer.
7. The truss should be painted anti corrosion paint.
8. When the J-hook is tightened, the tip of the hook should be turned towards the axis to hold the purlin and the long section of the threaded J-hook should be shifted towards the lower slope to prevent the CGI sheet falling down.
