HOW TO DEVELOP A PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY OF TEACHING IN AN "ICT" ENABLED WORLD

HOW TO DEVELOP A PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY OF TEACHING IN AN "ICT" ENABLED WORLDTechnology of instruction can make an ordinary person capable of superior perfomance and a means, either printed or electronic to distribute that instruction. Information and communication technologies(ICT) are entering the class-room in a great way. Accordingly the entire process of teaching learning are going to be over handled. This rises a number of philosophical as well as methodological issues. What will be the nature of inquiry in an ICT enabled educational scenario? Because of this comprehensive change it become familiar with and be comfortable with these new technologies. This study is an attempt to empower student teachers in this new era of teaching and learning.

             The scope of philosophy of education is concerned with the problems of education. These problems are general in nature, the interpretation of nature, the world and universe, explanations of aims and ideals. The chief philosophy everywhere is critical evaluation as well as construction.

             The ICT tools such as internet, world wide web, e-mail, web logs, social networks, free sotwares, wikipedias etc should be familiar to the teachers which will be helpful and enhances the methode of teaching. And also the teachers should understand the ICT enabled teaching practices in high schools,collages etc.

               ICT tools helps the teacher to teach the difficult topic and also to understand the abstract topic to the students. Merely understanding or hearing about any topic is easily to forget, but the teaching of the topic with the help of ICT tools enable the students to digest easily.

               Now a days education becomes continuous process and need more care and guidance. So each teacher should have their own sound philosophy. Philosophy should be in thier practice not in words. Philosophy indicates the personality and also the views of the teacher or the concerned person.
                 According to my openion teaching is not merely a knowledge giving process. In traditional method techer gives only the subject knowledge to the students. Beyond that the students will not get any extra knowledge of the concerned subject or topic. So a teacher should know about the current status of our society, changes that happens in the world especially in the regarding topic.These informationsgood teacher. And also a teacher should allow the students to express and share their feelings, ideas and opinions.

                  A student spent more time in their school with his/her teacher rather that with their mother
. The charecter building stage of students are in their schooling period. So a teacher with sound philosophy can direct the behaviour of the students to desired direction. He/she can develop moral values and can made them into a good citizen. A techer should know the philosophy of different philosophers and make their own philosophy by taking good values from that. These value should be shared with students by not just saying but showing with it's needs. The teacher should teach moral values to students through his life. A teacher can influence his/her students greatly to the students while teaching. The teacher should be a role model for the students. She can direct and guide the students to the desired goal.

                   A teacher should be an architect who should mould her students to the desired shape. Thus a teacher should be a role model for her students. Behind every success men there is a influencing teacher who guided and motivated him at a great extent.

               Teaching is an opportunity to inspire and empower the young generation. A teacher should able to develop a good personality in the students. They must be good problem solvers. Education will change according to the changing needs of the society. The world is moving in a tremendous way. A teacher should provide complete freedom for children in the class-room to express thier feelings, ideas, opinion, emotion etc. A teacher should consider the feelings of hre pupil and also the needs too. Teacher should be the second mother for the students by guiding he/she throughout thier lives.

                 The new digital ICT's are not single technologies but the combination of hardwares, softwares, media and delivery system. Understand the legal, ethical,health and safety implications of using ICT and their responsibilities as users and developers. Thus in this ICT enabled world, the place of ICT is almost importance. The use of ICT will help both the students and teachers in teaching learning process. It is an attempt to empower the student teachers in the new era of teaching learning process.
