While I was reading the previous content, I reflected on how much the Covid-19 advanced skills that it was necessary to adopt. The types of technologies recommended based on the number of members in the group has an understandable definition at this time.
It is very important to use appropiate technology during the course and assesment of the technolgy tools used.
Technology should be varied, i.e., one on one, small and large group and it should not hinder the teaching process... it should enhance it.
There are many ways to communicate with students. Online instructors need to research which tools will be most effective and should base their choice on their comfort level with each possible tool. Students should be asked to provide feedback during and after the course in order to effectively evaluate each technology tool's effectiveness.
I learned that there are several ways to communicate with small groups including email, FaceTime, texting, teleconferencing, and telephone.
I have learned that it is important to utilize all forms of technology and software available. It is also important to make sure the tool is an effective form of communication and works well with the course. As instructors we also need to communicate how we would like our students to communicate with us. Whether it be text speak or professional speak. I feel that in order to prepare these students to the working professional world, text speak should not be allowed.
There are many communication platforms today and we are to choose the right format that helps students and instructors communicate effectively.
By understanding the purpose of using the specific communication platform and receiving feedback from students one can adjust the process as needed to better support the course needs.
I discovered the usefulness of many social networks that I did not know before.
Professors need to understand the technology available to them when communicating with students.
To maintain effective communication, it is necessary to define the means of communication and the tools available and above all the agreement between the students and the teacher. Establish clear guidelines.
Before choosing technology tools to utilize in an online course, you need to evaluate yours options and assure that the tools align with the learning outcomes and communication goals.
Using technology can help students communicate effectively depending on the method and the skill taught.
Its is very important understand the technology when discussing formative topics
Even tough social media its a great way to interact with students, you got to be sure the students have access to that technology. Got to see for the pros and cons of the used media.
I had never thought to implement the use of social media in my class and will be researching what the best way to do so would be! I also will be assessing whether the communication tools I have been using are effective or not by asking my students after a few weeks as stated in the module.
I learned that the utilization of technology is a process that should developed in a orderly manner.
1. Identyfy
2. Use
3. Evaluation
4.Assesment
Each stage of the process has to be carefully applied.
Creo que es importante conocer que herramientas de comunicación son las más efectivas para nuestros estudiantes. El uso del teléfono es crucial.
Me llamó muchísimo la atención el uso de las redes sociales para desarrollar el aprendizaje a través de la tecnología. Yo soy participante de grupos educativos. Pero no se me había ocurrido el desarrollar un grupo con los estudiantes. La versatilidad de comunicación nos ayuda a dar más alternativas de presentar el conocimiento.
After know that technology tools , the rest is very, very simple and easy going.
