ICT for Science Technicians RE600 / B04
Summary
This course will cover a range of uses of ICT in the technician role itself and in supporting teaching and learning in the classroom.
Common uses of ICT in science classrooms are for data logging and use of digital images. In technician roles the primary concern will be setting up the ICT for classroom use, however an understanding of the teaching and learning uses of the ICT, particularly for practical work, will allow you to setup more effectively. You will also be able to run better demonstrations and provide better classroom support as many technicians are asked to do nowadays.
Software and information on the Internet can also be used to support the technician role and more effective working and collaborative working.
Outcomes
Participants will be able to:
• Develop skills with ICT/equipment, improve setting-up times and reduce set-up errors
• Consolidate understanding of the range of digital capture and data logging systems in science
• Develop use of ICT and the Internet for creating resources and sharing information
• Support successful use of ICT in the classroom
• Consider issues for successful demonstrations and practical work in the classroom
