Constructive tool
We say that 21st century is a digital
world where everyone can get access and view the world through using
technologies. You can read information about world and also write about world
with the help of technology you are using with. We had a session on ICT as
constructive tool, learned how we can use and teach our students.
Constructivism is basically an approach to learning whereby leaner’s
constructed or make their own knowledge based on understanding.
Traditional teaching was now replaced by ICT
integration and by doing so we are catering to the diverse needs of students.
Unlike in past teacher is only main source of information but now children are
able to construct their own understanding through use of computers and became
more expert on contents. We consider
that child’s learning is just same as what teacher had taught to them but when
we look at the diversity leaning strategies learning is more effective when a student is actively engaged and open space
for their learning by fostering critical thinking, and become independent
leaner’s with use of technologies.
We have also looked at applications that help
learner to manipulate information, visualize one’s understanding and construct one’s
own knowledge.
Example:
concept map, desktop publishing
word, spread sheet spreadsheet
Above all these applications I came to know that it helps learners to learn in absence of teacher as well as they are able to do research on their studies by using wide range of resources on the net.

Out of many constructive tools we have worked on
simulations whereby we individually designed one page simulated advertisement

Thank you
When I go through your reflection, I found something new was those tools keep students active and engaged. Additionally, you proved it by giving the very ict task on making simulation and your experinced on it. I would say those statements was lens to give clear idea on this concept of constructive tools.
ReplyDeleteYour reflection on constructive tool is rich in content with interesting and appropriate examples. I hope that you will make use of tool in your teaching and learning. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading your reflection on communicative tools I am well aware of some of the benefits and challenges you came across while carrying out the activity. You have rich information and examples are relevant to support your ideas. Attractive use of images and video on how to make simulation was worth watching.
ReplyDeleteYour reflection is precise and i could understand what you are saying. It is neatly written with evident pictures and enough example.
ReplyDeleteYour reflection on communicative tools is meaningful. You have reflected well on what you understood. Moreover, the images and examples further supports your reflection.
