Thank you for your interest! In my post, I discussed various ICT tools, including Khan Academy, as a part of the broader ICT transformation. Some specific programs that are being trained include PhET Interactive Simulations and ChemCollective Virtual Labs. These tools offer interactive simulations and virtual labs that enhance learning experiences, especially in subjects like chemistry. If you have any more questions or need further details, feel free to ask!

@AFSHA28f0a2936e It's great to see your interest in ICT transformation, especially in places with limited resources. The Sindh Education and Literacy Department (SELD) is working with different organizations to improve ICT in schools. As teachers, it's our job to learn more about ICT. There are many websites that offer free ICT courses for teachers. By using these resources, we can better help our Students.

@Sanwan Welcome to the Forum Dear @Sanwan , you will find a lot of knowledge here in this Forum and enjoyments.

@Engr-Zeeshan Dear Brother,
The role of ICT is very vast. It starts from understanding the basics, making lines in the paint Brush application to the Microsoft Office. From the 1st generation to the 5th, ICT has advanced significantly. Recently, AI tools, including ChatGPT, have been very helpful and supportive.When I was graduating, I felt very happy when I wrote my first program, "Hello World," in a programming language. I learned how to edit text in MS-DOS and much more. Now, I am a teacher, and I try my best to share all the knowledge and learning I have gained in my life to my students.

@FarhanMehboob Thanks my dear brother for your constructive reply.

@AFSHA28f0a2936e Nice Information. I have heard about coursers and Khan Academy. I watched some videos there too.

@FarhanMehboob Thanks

@Sanwan Dear Sanwan,
Which level you are using in the classroom now a days. The holidays are over there and the classes are running.

@Engr-Zeeshan hello sir .you are right but we have to take a step through ICT and if it may be possible so teacher can manage laptop or mobile for learning technology

Aslam o Alaikum dear,

Yes, you are right from your site, but keeping in view the current scenarios of Pakistan, especially our Sindh, managing it on regular basis may become difficult. I think its teacher´s choice to share his knowledge in his own way whether its traditional or ICT related.

So let it done by a teacher what he/she prefer.
