This unit is part 2 of a 2 part series. In the previous unit, we introduced the TPaCK framework and explored some of its basics. The assignment for the last unit was to play the TPaCK game which should have started to help you think about how you could apply TPaCK to your subject and classroom.

If you have not yet completed Unit 25, you should do so before starting this unit.

In this unit, we will take a much closer look at how to use TPaCK to think about the integration of technology in a number of different subjects as well as how to plan learning activities using the framework.

This unit will encourage you to think of ways in which you can change your teaching style from being mostly teacher- centered (teacher talks and learners listen) to thinking of ways in which you plan your lessons and activities to involve your learners more actively in lessons.

So far in this module, we have learnt what learner-centred teaching is and why it is important that we try and teach in learner-centred ways. It is learners, after all, that need to do the learning. Therefore, it is important that we put the learner and their needs at the heart of what we are doing.

In this unit we will have a look at some ways in which technology can support our efforts in putting the learner at the heart of things as well as some general principles for designing great technology enabled learner-centric learning activities.

The full course of the Rwanda ICT Essentials for Teachers Course. The materials covered include:
Unit 00: Orientation & Baseline Survey

Unit 01 - Hardware
'Describe and demonstrate the use of common hardware' is the competency of this unit

Unit 02 - Troubleshooting ICT
Demonstrate ability to perform basic maintenance and repair on hardware and assist in software troubleshooting.

Unit 03 - Educational Internet
Describe the functions and purposes of internet in the classroom and demonstrate the capability of using internet.

Unit 04 - Word Processing
Describe and demonstrate the basic tasks and uses of word processors, such as text entry, editing text, formatting text and printing.

Unit 05 - Record Keeping (Spreadsheets)
Use ICT to support class administration through the keeping of a digital class record system using a spreadsheet package.

Unit 06 - eMail & Social Media
Describe the functions and purposes of internet in the classroom and demonstrate the capability of using internet including e-mail, search, and social media functions in classwork.

This is a unit of study whose competency is to intergrate the use of a computer laboratory into ongoing teacher activities and manage the use of supplementary ICT resources with individuals and small groups of students in the regular classroom so as to not disrupt the other instructional activities in the class.
The objective is to identify and understand different ways to organize ICT in the school, laboratory/Classroom.

By the end of this unit teachers should be able to:

Technological literacy 5- (a) Integrating the activity of using computer labs in teaching activities on a continuous basis.

Technology Literacy 5- (b) Work to manage the process of using complementary information and communication technology resources with individuals and small groups of students in the regular classroom so that other educational activities in the classroom are not disrupted.

Deepening knowledge 5- (a) Placing and organizing computers and other digital resources in the classroom so that learning activities and social interactions are supported and enhanced among the classroom students.

بحلول نهاية هذه الوحدة ، يجب أن يكون المعلمون قادرين على:

محو الأمية التكنولوجية 5- (أ) تكامل نشاط استخدام معامل الكمبيوتر في الأنشطة التعليمية بشكل مستمر.

محو الأمية التكنولوجية 5- (ب) العمل على إدارة عملية استخدام موارد تكنولوجيا المعلومات والاتصالات التكميلية مع الأفراد والمجموعات الصغيرة من الطلاب في الفصول الدراسية العادية حتى لا تتعطل الأنشطة التعليمية الأخرى في الفصل.

تعميق المعرفة 5- (أ) وضع وتنظيم أجهزة الكمبيوتر والموارد الرقمية الأخرى في الفصل الدراسي بحيث يتم دعم وتعزيز الأنشطة التعليمية والتفاعلات الاجتماعية بين طلاب الفصل.

A unit of study to introduce participants to the idea that the effective integration of ICT into a learning environment (classroom and computer lab) requires careful thought and planning, particularly with regards to time and human resources, and that there are many ICT tools available to the teacher to assist with this process.

This course has been developed to support the training of teachers to integrate ICT into their teaching practices. The materials, guides and activities are strongly aligned with the UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers (CFT).
While the course embraces the role ICT can bring to the classroom it is also not held prisoner by the need for high end or sophisticated technology platforms. The course can be deployed in areas of limited or no connectivity via CD ROM or memory stick as most of the resources have been previously downloaded and collected. There are also web and paper based versions of the lessons and guides.
This course uses materials that are Open Education Resources (OER) or free to use for educational purposes, allowing the use and distribution, and in some instances the repurposing of the materials, at no additional cost. (See the Open License tab for more information).
But most importantly we hope the lessons are fun and engaging enough to introduce new possibilities and refresh the participant's passion for teaching and learning.

The teacher to organise the physical environment to support the needs of the syllabus and the ICT tools. Specific Objectives: On completion of this unit you will be able to: 1] Identify the pros and cons of using computer labs, 2] Use ICT effectively in a classroom setting, and 3] Use ICT in a community setting.

Module 4: Management and Administration

Unit 15: Organise ICT in the physical environment (labs, clusters, classrooms, virtual)
Unit 16: Use ICT for continued professional development
Unit 17: Responsible use of ICT in school and digital citizenship
Unit 18: Online safety

A unit of study to introduce in-service teachers to the topic of properly arranging and managing physical resources so as to produce flexible learning environments, allowing learners to work productively as individuals or in groups.

UNESCO’s Framework emphasizes that it is not enough for teachers to have ICT competencies and be able to teach them to their students. Teachers need to be able to help the students become collaborative, problemsolving, creative learners through using ICT so they will be eff ective citizens and members of the workforce. The Framework therefore addresses all aspects of a teacher’s work:

Understanding ICT in Education
Curriculum and Assessment
Pedagogy
ICT
Organisation & Administration
Teacher Professional Learing

The Framework is arranged in three diff erent approaches to teaching (three successive stages of a teacher’s development). The first is Technology Literacy, enabling students to use ICT in order to learn more effi ciently. The second is Knowledge Deepening, enabling students to acquire in-depth knowledge of their school subjects and apply it to complex, real-world problems. The third is Knowledge Creation, enabling students, citizens and the workforce they become, to create the new knowledge required for more harmonious, fulfi lling and prosperous societies.
