ICT as a communicative, situating and informative tool

Summary

Blending tech with heart in the                   

                   classroom

As I reflect on using Khan Academy,  zoom and 

phET simulations, I’m struck by how each tool 

adds unique flavor to the learning experience. 

Forinstance, like different ingredients in a recipe 

that together, create something meaningful.

Khan Academy feels like a personal tutor who is

always ready to teach and never tired. Zoom, on 

other hand is all about staying connected. And 

there’s phET simulation which

made science feel alive.

Each of these tools taught me something more 

than just content. They taught me learning can 

happen anywhere on a screen through a 

simulation or across mile via a video call. But 

most of all, they reminded me that technology 

isn't meant to support, enrich and sometimes 

even inspire us along the way.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

For your kind information, I would like madam to asses the three images I have uploaded in this summary. All three images represent the use of ICT as an informative, communicative and situating tool. To briefly explain, image A shows how zoom can be used as a communicative tool in learning. With the help of this tool, learners can actively collaborate from anywhere. Image B illustrates how YouTube channels like Khan Academy serve as an informative tool enabling learners to catch up on concepts they may have missed or not understood in class. Image C demonstrates the use of phET simulations for science experiments, acting as a situating tool that provides hands-on experience to help learners understand concepts more effectively.
