ICT New Curriculum for class 6,7,8 -In today’s times, many educational reforms are taking place. ICT is one of them. ICT stands for Information and Communication Technology. It is defined as the application of technology in the processing of information and communication, which includes the use of computers and software to not only convert and store data but also process, transmit, and retrieve it.
Since the world is moving technologically, ICT supports the teaching and learning process across all subjects by
providing a wide range of resources while preparing learners for the modern workplace. It also prepares learners
for programmes like Computer Science, Cyber Security, Computer Programming, and other IT-related careers.

ICT is one of the economic development pillars to gain national competitive advantage. It can improve the quality of human life because it can be used as a great learning and education media. It provides wider knowledge and can help in gaining and accessing information.
The significant role ICT can play in a student’s learning process has also been highlighted in the National Curriculum Framework 2005 (NCF) as well as in New Education Policy 2020.
