  1. We can do thse things below for using ICT in the classroom
  1. 1.Give the students a scenario and then ask them to make a judgement. The type of judgement you would consider would be whether they are evaluating the credibility of ICT;
  2. Assess their creativity based on the ICT techniques, tools and resources they use;
  3. Give feedback to students on their intended strategies and ask them specific questions to do with the key evidence to support, argue for and validate their decisions;
  4. Examine the whether the evidence was accurate, logical and relevant;
  5. Determine if a student can: identify a problem; identify irrelevancies; describe and evaluate multiple strategies; model a problem; identify obstacles and reason with data;
  6. Ask the students the reason why they chose to use the ICT tool or resource;
  7. Find out if the students can justify their decisions and question the logic and reasoning behind their techniques.

the best way of using ICT in a classroom you should have enough computers or to share the equal number of computers to the students and if there is internet connection you as teacher you can share the link or software to the group of students and themselves will find something which is the most needed by the program. so if the computers and internet  are not available, you cannot teach the lesson with ICT without ICT tools in classroom.
