2021 Day 118 Tasks – Collaborative Tools for Teaching and Learning

Synopsis :

Interaction is a vital part of learning. This means being able to communicate and interact with others through different modes and means. As teachers move to online methods of teaching, it can be hard to keep the same level of interaction up as there would normally be in the physical classroom. That’s why it’s important to find ways of allowing our students to continue interacting with each other, and even with those beyond the virtual classroom. One way of doing this is through online collaboration tools. Online Collaborative tools enable teachers and students to perform a wide range of tasks, such as interactive discussions, online collaboration activities, sharing and accessing electronic learning resources, and many more others. Thus, this sharing session will share several tools such as Padlet, Google Jamboard and Miro that can be applied for collaborative activities in synchronous and asynchronous teaching and learning sessions.

I attended the above mentioned training organized by UTM Lead and I found it to be interesting. But sadly I was only there to view it after 45 minutes which means I was not there to view the early part of the training. I will definitely view the early part soon since this Collaborative Learning Tools are imperative for me to help design teaching in my class creatively.
