Abstract
ICT integration is to use ICT to introduce, reinforce, supplement and extend skills. It
stimulates and motivates students, provides comfortable learning aids to understand the difficult
concepts and processes It caters to different learning styles and helps students to gain knowledge
of new technologies. Teaching modern techniques and technologies to the students enhances
their creativity and innovation to develop tools to find solution of daily life problems. These type
of activities increase the interests of the students in the class and break the monotony and
boredom of the topics.
The knowledge of robotics provides them not only a tool to give shape to their imagination but
also the knowledge of advance technologies at this young age. As a part of Practical
introduction to Robotics students watched some videos of robotics based equipments during
Environment Awareness classes. These videos depicted the innovative methods developed by
some students (other) and professionals to overcome some or the other daily life problems.
Teacher found some of the students interested and enthusiastic to develop such type of
instruments. That‘s why the basics of robotics were introduced and hands on experiences were
given of bread board circuits, software, coding, AI, programming and inserting artificial minds
for desired output by the devices.
A study was conducted through questionnaire to observe the learning outcome of these technical
activities which showed that 70% of the students were very much enthusiastic about the
techniques, out of which 60% of them were able to understand the basics of the technology and
40% were able to develop such devices which include – soil humidity testing device, smoke
detector, water level indicator etc.
