Information •Information means facts or knowledge

provided or learned. Meaningful data which is obtained after processing data is known as information.

•We can get information by so many mediums. For example :- T.V., Radio, Net, Newspaper, etc.

Communication

Communication

Communication •Latin word ‘communis’ means common

experience. So communication means : to send any idea to another. In communication a person gives some instructions & the other reacts or gives response.

Formal communication •There are some specific

objectives are expected to be fulfilled. In this type of communication some definite rules & systems are arranged.

•For example :- lecture, Interview, communication with senior authorities, speech etc.

Informal communication•It is called

unexpected & sudden communication. There is no formality for this type of communication.

•For example:- talking with friends, chatting etc.

Nonverbal communication• Nonverbal communication between people

is communication through sending and receiving wordless clues.

• It includes the use of visual cues such as body language (kinesics), distance (proxemics) and physical environments/appearance, of voice (paralanguage) and of touch (haptics).[1] It can also include chronemics (the use of time) and oculesics (eye contact and the actions of looking while talking and listening, frequency of glances, patterns of fixation, pupil dilation, and blink rate).

Non verbal communication

Verbal Communication•The sharing of information between individuals

by using speech. Individuals working within a business need to effectively use verbal communication that employs readily understood spoken words, as well as ensuring that the enunciation, stress and tone of voice with which the words are expressed is appropriate.

Communication means transfer of information or content. Communication is carried through expression signs, pictures, diagrams & facial expression.

In teaching learning process communication is the most important process.

Synchronous communcation

In general, synchronous (pronounced SIHN-kro-nuhs, from Greek syn-, meaning "with," and chronos, meaning "time") is an adjective describing objects or events that are coordinated in time. In information technology, the term has several different usages.1) In telecommunication signaling within a network or between networks, synchronous signals are those that occur at the same clock rate when all clocks are based on a single reference clock. (Plesiochronous signals are almost but not quite in synchronization and asynchronous signals are those that run from different clocks or at a different transition rate.)

The word synchronous means working together at the same time, and in the online learning world, chat rooms and online conferences are good examples of synchronous communication. In a chat room, people's comments to each other are relayed immediately, enabling a real-time discourse. Similarly, online conferencing with the benefit of voice over Internet protocol (VOIP) tools enable real-time conversations to take place online. Learning from synchronous communication is enhanced because real-time conversations allow people to explore, through writing or talking, the class concepts. The act of verbalizing helps students build bridges between different ideas and concepts, thus helping them retain information more effectively.

Asynchronous communication• Asynchronous communication is the relay of information

with a time lag. Discussion forums and email are two examples of how asynchronous communication is employed in online learning. It is very helpful to communicate in this way, because students have plenty of time to formulate thoughts. By communicating via email, students are able to respond in detail to a question or topic that they might have answered incompletely in a real-time conversation. This time lag in communication helps students internalize information by giving them time to research certain ideas or merely extra time for contemplation. The main disadvantage to asynchronous communication is time lost waiting for a response.

ICT : Information Communication Technology

•New digital technology used for communication.•Technology used to communicate required

information at the right place & time by means of communication media.

• Information communication technology is a diverse mixture of technology tools & recourses to create, differentiate, store, bring value addition & manage information for communication.

Characteristics / need / importance

1. Information received through ICT is believable & exact.

2. ICT can update information whenever there is change & addition in the information.

3. Implementation of the action becomes very fast when information is passed via ICT.

4. Telephonic communication is of oral type & immediate decision is possible by this communication.

5. Communication between a sender & receiver becomes very easy in any part of the world as can be seen through the example of the telephone.

6. The process of communicating via message is possible with speed due to electronic devices.

7. Digital messages stored can be used for proofs or evidence.

8. Communication has also become cheaper due to the advancement in ICT.

9. Communicating to the masses through radio & T.V. has revolutionized the process of communication.

Teaching Learning Process

Effective learning is possible by five sensory means.According to psychological study human can grasp 80% knowledge visually, 15 % through hearing & 5% with the rest of the sensory items.

Sense organs

•So it becomes necessary to present the content by attractive means. Computer technology helps us to provide rich presentation.

•To provide rich presentation, it is necessary to use the various components like:-

1. Text matter presentation2. Animation presentation3. Graphic presentation4. Audio presentation5. Video presentation

Computer Aided Teaching has become popular now a days.

Evaluation

CCE (Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation changes the traditional evaluation system which was based on oral and written examination. The new systems of education have extended learning beyond traditional classroom environment, which involves the following paradigm shift:-

1.Continuous evaluation2.Efficient teaching strategies & methods3.Active , participative learning atmosphere4.Use of simulation5.E-labs6.Individual & group learning7.To learn how to learn

The following important teaching-learning paradigms are nicely supported by technology based learning:-

Different learning styles Higher order thinking skills Concepts learning by innovative & participative learning methods Hands on approaches using

technology for problem solving & physical skills
