| Research Forum |
 |
The Intel® Teach Program has
been functional in India for the last six years monitoring and evaluation
has been an integral part of the program. Six years down the line, a need
was felt to study the impact of the program in a meaningful and systematic
manner. Apart from the team, the educators associated with the
Pre-Service
program, especially the Core Committee, also articulated the need to
research the impact of technology on education.
They felt that there was a gap between the practice and
research, to be specific that the schoolteachers were using technology
innovatively in the classrooms, and this was not being studied effectively
through research. The Research Forum is the result of such needs, values
and perspectives. The Forum seeks to document the research already done in
the area of integration of technology in education, promote research in
this area by supporting selected research projects, through capacity
building workshop, and publish some research studies and Best practices,
and some other initiatives. The Forum is led by a small group of
academicians who form the Research Task Force.
