ICT Enabled Lectures
Mobile learning with PPT Lectures is an effective tool for delivering lectures, particularly when used in combination with other teaching methods such as discussions, activities, and assessments. These lectures allow faculties to organize and structure their content in a structured, logical and coherent way with visual aids which makes it easier to follow for students. This also improved the consistency and time management of lectures. PPT lectures can be easily shared with students through online platforms or email which makes it more accessible for students to review the material at their own pace anywhere and anytime.
