ICT as Medium for Advocacy

 How Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has transformed the educational methodologies when you were in grade school and now Senior High School




During my elementary and junior high school years, ICT's role in education was limited, with traditional teaching methods prevailing. We relied on textbooks and chalkboard lessons(ex:manila papers, cartolina, etc.), and computers were not yet integrated into the daily curriculum. As I progressed to Senior High School, there was a noticeable shift as ICT began to play a more prominent role. Interactive smart boards, educational software, and online resources became integral tools for learning. The accessibility of information improved significantly, allowing for more personalized and engaging educational experiences. Overall, the transformation brought about by ICT has enhanced the learning environment, fostering a more dynamic and tech-savvy educational landscape.


Here are the impact of ICT in education:

A. The Singing of the National Anthem


In Grade School, When Singing the National Anthem our teachers assigns the 6th graders to lead the Singing of the anthem and the "Panunumpa". The teacher observe us and our classmates next to us by doing Hands Forward and Side wards , Making sure our Lines are  properly straight.  


Now in Senior High School, using ICT, recorded versions of the national anthem are often played and with the help of televisions or the ceremony can be held in classrooms.

B. Concept Notes



In Grade School, When doing concepts notes we are writing it down in our notebooks and Papers. Whenever our teachers tells us a Project and make an outline, we tend to write it down first in order for us to not make mistakes when writing it already. 

In Senior High School, Doing concepts notes is a lot more easier because we have our cellphones to take pictures, screenshot and or write it down in the Notes app. 

C. Presentation of Visual Aids



In Grade School, When Presenting visual aids we use the traditional method which is using Manila Paper, Cartolina and Pentel Pen. 

In Senior High School, The teachers taught us how to use PowerPoint and Printed materials when Presenting Visual Aids. 

D. Class Record 



In Grade School, When making a class record the teacher is there to check or tally our attendance, Graded Oral Reporting, Performance task and written works. 

In Senior High School, When doing the Class record the teacher uses their Laptops and phones to write down the records and compute the grades of their students in the Microsoft excel.

E. Class of Dismissal



In Grade School, Class dismissal was only announced by the school bell. Once the teacher announce to collect our works we will pass it finished or not. 

In Senior High School, we only have half day classes because of the number of students who enrolled in our school, not like in Grade School that we have whole day classes.

F. Assignment and Research



In Grade School, Answering our Assignments and research will only answered if we are able to borrow books in the Library or the teacher will lend us their books. 

In Senior High School, Answering our Assignments and research is a lot more easier because the Internet is their to help us.


In conclusion, thhe integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in education enhances learning by providing students with interactive and dynamic resources. Utilizing tools such as computers, tablets, and educational software fosters a more engaging and personalized learning experience. Additionally, ICT facilitates access to a vast range of educational materials, promoting digital literacy and preparing students for the demands of the modern workforce.
