Effective ICT Tools for Course Management

Abstract

Usage of Technology in Teaching-Learning Process (TLP) transforms teacher centered learning environment into a student centered learning environment. ICT (Information and Communication Technology) not only enhances students learning process but also helps them to improve their skills to solve real world problems. Content creation using technology is crucial in the current scenario for course management. In this paper we will discuss the effective tools available under open source for management of courses. The tools discussed were used by us for our course content creation, distribution and assessment. We will show the effectiveness of these tools through survey collected from students who accessed the tools.
