Greetings to all!
This blog will take you through my learning profile of Information Communication Technology module (EDN 419) about Information Communication Technology as five main tool in teaching in learning. The Information Communication Technology can be used as five main tool in teaching and learning , they are informative tool, constructing tool, communicative tool, co-construction tool and situating tool.
These were five main tool that we can use Information Communication Technology in our learning and teaching. Now, lets talk about the definition of these five Information Communication Technology through my own understanding. The first one is information tool; from my understanding I understood that Information Communication Technology can be used as informative tool as it can provide vast amount of data in various form such as audio, videos and documents . According to my tutor explanation, Information Communication Technology can be used as informative tool as it can provide us with varieties resources for our studies likes sounds, graphics, texts , movies and so many more. Therefore, I realized Information Communication Technology was used as informative tool by us in our day to day life but we didn't have the knowledge of Information Communication Technology being one of the tool.
The second tool is communication tool and I understood that communicative tool means Information Communication Technology can be used as a features which facilitates two- way communication between individuals or group. Using email, skype, wechat, blog etc are some examples that were used by my tutor to explain on communicative tool. The third tool is constructive tool, which means Information Communication Technology can be used as a tool to construct knowledge using MS-Word, Power Point, mind mapping etc. The fourth tool is co-constructive tool which means Information Communication Technology can be used as a tool to co-construct the knowledge together example like using google docs, virtual learning platform, discussion board etc. The last tool is situating tool which means that information Communication Technology can be used as situating tool as it can be by mean of virtual reality extension system, or computer can create 3-D images to give the user the feeling of situated in virtual environment. Example like creating a simulation to advertise and attract more tourists to visit our home town.
Therefore, I realized that we have used Information Communication Technology as varieties tools but in our day to day life ; we have used these five main tools as more prominent tools in our learning as well as in teaching. From next, I will talk about how I have understood about different tool with examples and how I will implement what i have learnt in my near future in my classroom to integrate Information Communication Technology as Teaching and learning tool.
Hope everyone will enjoy going through my learning journal. Please enjoy reading!🙂🙂
