1 .For
Beginners ,my suggestion is to first learn MS-Office(word ,Excel ,Power Point
etc.)
The
basics you learn under them is very helpful in learning and using more
technology .You can join some Computer Institute or you can learn it on-line
through self paced Microsoft training website.office.microsoft.com
2 Find a buddy to learn with, or a mentor to
guide you. There are no stupid questions. Support and encourage each other. You
can also take help of your students . Let them come forward for help
3. Dive
in. Start playing – exploring – trying. You won’t break anything. Find out what
is out there, and discover tools that will work with your students.
4. Before
you use the technology with students, first use it for yourself. Explore ,learn
and then experiment with students.
5. One of
the most useful ways you can use technology is to keep yourself up to date on
the latest developments in the education field—what are other teachers doing?
- Read blogs
- Join some Teacher's network
- Get active on social media
- Be patient.
6. Be
patient .Change is never easy, but do not give up. You will be less confident
for a while as you cover yourself with “the new,” and that’s ok. Things are
always changing, which means you will always be learning and growing. Much like
your students!
