Deepkamal Mann
Abstract: The objectives of this paper are to study the perspectives of teachers towards the use of smart class and to find out the ICT training of teachers. The investigator has taken 13 smart-class using teachers (5 government teachers and 8 private teachers) of senior secondary schools of rural areas from Mansa and SAS Nagar districts of Malwa region of Punjab State by using simple random sampling technique. Results revealed that lack of training and non-availability of sufficient as well as appropriate e-Content were major issues faced mainly by the government teachers for the effective use of smart class in teaching-learning process. Majority of government and private teachers were using smart class for teaching purposes from 2-5 years, but the private teachers have upper hand with respect to the frequency of using smart class. Even though, the usage of subject-specific softwares for smart class by teachers was not very good but the position of private teachers was much better than government teachers. Furthermore, all the sampled teachers have admitted the improvement in their students towards the subject understanding through smart class.
