Traditional methods of teaching have been greatly augmented by the availability of newer technologies in the field of communication. We investigated various aspects of inclusion of ICT in teaching learning process at college level by conducting a survey. We found that students have adequate digital access, most prefer inclusion of 30-60 % ICT in teaching and need to be counseled regarding ill effects of prolonged exposure to digital media.

Abstract


Traditional methods of teaching have been greatly augmented by the availability of newer technologies in the field of communication. We investigated various aspects of inclusion of ICT in teaching learning process at college level by conducting a survey. We found that students have adequate digital access, most prefer inclusion of 30-60 % ICT in teaching and need to be counseled regarding ill effects of prolonged exposure to digital media.
