"Investigating Teachers' Attitude towards Using Computers to Promote Teaching and Learning in Relation to Their Age, Years of Teaching Experience and Professional Education"

Abstract
Computers are becoming a popular educational tool in early primary classrooms. Many nations of the world are striving to provide students with technology-rich learning environments. Developing countries like Pakistan are also trying to improve their national programs by integrating computer technology into education. But a successful implementation of computer-based learning is dependent upon having a deeper understanding of teacher attitudes towards the use of computers.

“Group Work vs. Whole Class Activity”
Abstract
Group work has only been recently introduced in the education system of Pakistan. Many primary teachers, especially in the public schools, are still not aware of different strategies that can be used to facilitate learning among students while they are engaged in group work. This paper aims to provide an overview of teaching strategies to determine which strategy of student organisation works best while performing different classroom tasks. As different students have different learning preferences, it is important for teachers to not only appreciate different teaching strategies but also to also distinguish between situations where each is best suited.

“Importance Of Group Work in Primary Education and the Role of the Teacher to manage it.”
Abstract
Historically, the conventional method of teaching and conveying information by a teacher has not been much effective. This one-way method of communicating to the pupils is quite ineffective and sometimes quite boring and unintuitive for the students. Students do not get a chance to express their ideas, viewpoints and thoughts. Moreover their ability to interact, sharing knowledge, and confidence-level gets narrowed-down.
The role of the teacher should be of directing the students, as well as facilitating and monitoring their learning process.  The students in a class have different attitudes, strengths and learning styles.  This paper covers the importance of group work in primary education and the role of the teacher to manage it.
