LOAD "$",8
In my previous post, I talked about how my daughter used ICT to put together her research project and presentation. It prompted me to reflect on my own experiences of ICT in the classroom, and it made me realize how vastly different my own learning was to that which my daughter is experiencing today, nearly 30 years later.
Applied ICTs
I had first-hand experience of a year 1 student using ICTs to put a project together.
My daughter Lily is doing a unit on mini-beasts this term, and one of the her assessment items is to do a presentation in front of the class.

Reflections on Connectivism
There are several traditional theories on how learning takes place. However, a newer theory, Connectivism, is starting to gain traction. It's relevance lies in the rapid pace of information technology, and the abundance of information available on the internet. How we find it and filter it is deemed just as important, if not more so, than exactly what it is.
