The Role of ICT in Pedagogical Activities and its Impact on Achievement Motivation: Plan and foresee the impact

With home-based learning during the pandemic, teachers at all levels have seen a significant improvement in their techno-pedagogical skills. The current question that arises is how to leverage these skills effectively in the classroom to enhance the overall quality of teaching, learning, and assessment using technology. The goal is to provide tangible benefits that boost student motivation and success. This session will begin by briefly addressing the challenges and opportunities of integrating technology into education. It will also explore the concept of achievement motivation and closely examine the impact of ICT use on student motivation. Participants will then dive into planning a pedagogical scenario, learning how to align their technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge to maximize the quality of their learning situation and the motivational potential of ICT for their students. The discussion will be grounded in the latest educational research findings and enriched by the experiences of the teachers in the room. Don't miss out on this opportunity!
