Introduction:
Finding and Structuring Information
During
this case study, you will discuss and develop your skills in using
ICT in teaching and learning to do the following:
- Use
ICT to find and structure information - this is specific
to this case study.
Plus
you will develop your ability to:
- Plan
for the effective use of ICT.
- Organise
classroom use of ICT.
- Prepare
and present materials for learners using ICT.
- Use
the functions of ICT and understand its limitations.
- Review
and evaluate courseware and software.
- Relate
the use of ICT to learners needs.
- Develop
your learners' subject based learning using ICT.
- Assess
your learners' progress in Welsh as a Second Language as a result
of using ICT.
- Help
develop your learners' capability in the use of ICT.
- Help
your learners develop within the IT curriculum.
The
first of these objectives is specific to this case study, and
represents the core of what the case study is about. The other
objectives are common to all three of the case studies in Welsh
as a Second Language, and represent the application of your understanding
of ICT to teaching and learning.
Before
we get in detail to the case study, we should look more closely
at what is meant by finding and structuring information in it.
Specifically, the case study will consider the importance of the
following in the use of ICT in teaching and learning:
- Identifying
and selecting sources of information.
- Planning
and executing searches.
- Collecting,
structuring and storing information.
- Interpreting
and evaluating material found.
