Blog is an online journal or information website displaying information in the reverse chronological order. It is a platform where a writer or even a group of writers share their views on an individual subject.
We used blog for
reflecting our understanding on five ICT tools. This became communicative tool
between the tutor and the blogger. I must say that the use of blog is very
beneficial especially for reflection. As I maintain my reflection in blog on
five ICT tools, I learnt that we can maintain reflection better compare to
writing reflection with hands or typing thoughts in Microsoft word. Unlike
Microsoft word, blog has many features where we can reflect I the form of
pictures and videos. This makes us able to show clear picture of our
understanding and the communication between tutor and the blogger become
effective where the tutor can clearly understand our understanding on five ICT
tools.
For person like me who
has difficulty in communicating face to face with the tutor, expressing
thoughts through blog is much better. In blog I can write down my understanding
in my own way in ease. I don’t have to fear that the tutor may tell me
something if my sentence structure is wrong as I can always come back to the sentences
I have written and make changes to convey better messages to my tutor.
So, in future, I am
hoping to make good use of platform like blog make my students express their
thoughts and understanding of lesson. I know it will be difficult for lower classes
to use blog like us but I will find other alternatives of ICT tools for children
to express their thoughts with ease.
Its really a pleasure reading through your reflections because I gain lots of new ideas and perspectives. I agree that Blogging is assential for us introverts as well as the extroverts. I cant wait to read the next reflection!!!
ReplyDeleteSame here kinzang. I find difficult to communicate face to face with my tutor. So, i also think that blog is perfect platform for person like me to express my learning and doubt in this forum. And yes, we can even let our students use blog to express their learning. Nice reflection.
ReplyDeleteI liked the way you expressed about using blog. It was new knowledge for everyone of us and in future we can inculcate it in our teaching do that students can express their doubts and personal feelings about the session well
