ICT can be used to enhance teaching and learning in science by:
using datalogging packages to gather data from a variety of experiments
using data handling packages to process data and produce bar charts and graphs, including trend lines
using modelling packages to investigate situations where school laboratory experiments are unrealistic, dangerous or impossible
giving access to a variety of information sources, especially CD-ROMs and the Internet, and
sharing data with pupils around the world.
ICT resources (systems, software, hardware and courseware) available include:
datalogging sensors, interfaces and software
data handling software, either integrated with datalogging software or separate spreadsheet packages
simulation and modelling software
information systems, such as CD-ROMs, school networks and intranets, and communication systems for accessing the Internet.
Teachers new to ICT will find the Primary and Secondary Core materials helpful. Click here for an explanation of the different ways of using these sections. We will give you further links to the Primary Core in later modules. Don't forget the glossary of ICT terms either!
Finally, we suggest you have a look at the Primary Science materials to get an idea of the kinds of ICT experiences your pupils should be receiving before they come to the secondary school. The primary site has plenty of ideas which can be used and exploited in the secondary sector.
