Abstract

Green computing is the system of implementing virtual computing technology that ensure minimum energy consumption and reduces environmental waste while using computer. ICT Based Teaching and Learning (ICT-BTL) tools can be implemented for effective and quality education especially during the pandemic like Covid 19. The researchers collect the data from original sources with their personal experiences and eagerness to understand the concept in depth and the applicability for prospective mankind. The results include positive impacts of developing and implementing the green computing for ICT-BTL tools in smart class rooms. ICT experts and entrepreneurs believe in initiating the virtual classroom operations for the betterment of future and protecting from the faster growing technology era in education and research industry. The present study can be initiated for developing modern classrooms and ICT based education system with 3D presentation, demonstration of practical examples in the realistic manner.

1. Green Computing Inspirations For Ict-Btl

Green computing concept originated during the year 1992 while most of the companies initiated energy star for the electronic goods like printer, television, refrigerators, air conditioner, etc. which was the indication of energy efficiency (Asikainenet al. 2019), (Billett, Paulina and Martin, Dona, 2018). Millions of computers are used by individuals and organizations that consume the maximum portion of energy (Chatterjee, S., Bhattacharjee, K.K, 2020). With the consideration of proper utilization of renewable and non-renewable energy, different research institutions under government and non-government initiated to find the solution of reducing environmental waste and ensure energy efficiency that leads to discover the idea of green computing (Boud, D, et al. 1993), (Boyle, et al. 2019). ICT-BTL system has interconnections with green computing that leads a society into eco-friendly movement and sustainable development. UNESCO describes the importance of energy savings and released the guidelines for using the ICT-BTL practices exclusively in the developing countries. ICT-BTL system aggressively initiated by various countries like Chile, Costa Rica, Jordan, Macedonia, Malaysia, Russia, Namibia, Singapore, South Korea, and Uruguay. The system brings those countries into new heights of education, research and development and applications (Debabrata Samanta, S K Podder. 2019).

In the modern era, most of the institutions are developing and implementing virtual classroom using information and communication technology that demanded more number of computers (Edo, et al. 2019) (Arpaci, I., Basol, G, 2020). If the usage of all computers deliberates the green computing system, then the level of energy consumption reduces. So, the topic of the present research study relevant to Impact of Green Computing practices on ICT-BTL Tools.
