Tools for Communication and Collaboration:
|
Samples:
- In this PBWorks example, students are asked to collaborate on a wiki to communicate their understanding of: “…the role of Irrational Numbers in applications.” Padlet, VoiceThread, Wixie, and Edmodo, are other collaboration tools that can be used for similar purposes.
- VoiceThread and PowerPoint are some communication tools that students can use to identify real-world examples of new concepts. In this VoiceThread example, students are communicating their understanding of different types of triangles.
- Some other tools, like Voki, ActivInspire, Kidblog, and Make Beliefs Comix, can be used by students to communicate information in a nontraditional format. Instead of written essays or oral reports, students can present their research using technology tools. For example, this second grade student is using Voki to present information on bears.
