Activty 11

Previously i honestly thought that twitter and facebook were mainly for social interaction on a small plain. I never imagine it to be a gateway where meaning activities can take place. So the creation of my PLN would assist me in delivering meaningful information to my colleagues.

Activity10

this activity shed some light as to how teachers can use ICT and use it effectively without becoming a slave to it.

Activity 9

the activity reminder me of the importance of checking the validity of the websites which we access from time to time in order to fulfill our obligations as a learning mediator. Yes from time to time i would compare the information retrieved from one site to another but to be provided with the specific would help over time in the analysis of information which is accessible thought the internet.

Reflection: Module 3 Activity 2

This activity was rather good. Majority of the students were able to complete the constructed test. Some students encountered difficulty in remembering some of the experiments that were conducted in order effectively complete that section of the test.

Activity 8: Integrating spreadsheets with learning

This activity was very exciting for my students and I. the students participation was very good.It was a rare occasion where students actually participated in a group activity with little to no murmur. The integration of spreadsheets in an actual lesson was a bit uneasy at first since students were not that familiar with spreadsheet. in the end it turn out good. I must say spreadsheets could be used in the near future to highlight an activity of this nature.

Activity 7: Spreadsheets as a learning resource

This particular activity was time consuming in terms of the amount of reading required. at the end of the activity it made me more aware of the manager in which i conduct my classroom activities. It opened my eyes to the reality of what happens in the classroom where us as teacher are sometimes getting the task done rather than ensuring student understanding of the concept being taught.It exposed me to the ways in which we can link students previous knowledge to a present situation in order in infer the information presented.

Activity 4: Spreadsheets for administrative purposes

This particular was fairly easy and not time consuming since i am accustomed to using it to keep record of students assessment. I enjoy using excel because it allows for the uniformity and organization of information and it also promotes efficiency and effectiveness in the classroom.

Activity 3-INTEGRATING the word processor

This activity really amazed me as to how i can integrate a word processor in the teaching and learning process where students would be given the opportunity explore and use aspect of the word processor. Normally a word processor is used mainly in the administrative line of work, which main purpose might be typing test. but when i was challenged to produced a document where students' ICT skills would be boost. the lesson turn out to be good because students were enthusiastic about using some of the tools associated with a word processor. Due to the positive feedback it motivated me to allow students to participate in activities of a similar nature.
