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.
Using the correct tool is an important part of communicating, although we might not use every function, it is important to know which tool suits our class more.
Technology has endless tools that help us with effective communication between the teacher and the students. Depending on the objective-based on learning, we can determine which tools will be effective according to the needs and situations that arise. The basis is to look for strategies where the student shows that he is learning.
An Effective comunication have to be always a open channel between teacher and student. The results of this new TIC that we are living are they integration tool to our curriculum and effectiness is to keep involving our students in our way of teaching. Our students are digital native by their nature they are more propense to use technology in their live basis, it would be more constrictive teaching if we include our students in the use of new technology.

It's great to see how many ways of communicating we have now, I think something like Discord could be added to this course as this generation is using a lot to communicate.
We have multiple tools but we must research selecting the one that is suited for us.
I learned that the communication tool goes in hand towards the goal of the class. The summative and formative assestment about the comunication system was a good, and refreshing, eye opener. Feedback from the students are the foundations of great learning experience.
THROUGH THE CONTENT OF THE MATERIAL DISCUSSED IN THIS MODULE I HAVE LEARNED TO RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF EVALUATING THE TECHNOLOGICAL MEANS THAT ARE USED TO ACHIEVE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN STUDENTS AND THE EDUCATOR. THEREFORE, I INTEND TO USE MULTIPLE COMMUNICATION TOOLS TO ACHIEVE MY OBJECTIVES IN THE CLASSROOM.
Using the correct tool can enhance the learning process but used incorrectly even the correct tool can hinder the lesson. It is imperative that thought be given to which tool to use and for waht purpose.
Be open minded about the new technolgy , the remind app have been a great tool for our campus.
There can be many things to help us to communicate with our students and we should take advantage of them
Most of what I learned here was review of what I already know. I was reminded of several technologies that I have not used for a while, such a Skype. I did like the advice to check with students throughout the course about how well technologies work, although it has been my experience that students quickly contact you if something doesn't work ;)

Reply to Lawrence Bufalino's post:I agree that feedback from the students and assessing how they are using it and how it helps them.
The pandemic made it necessary to use other forms of communicatiion to teach. It forced me to use online format which I may have not wanted to try without a need for using online formats.
I have learned the different forms of communication to use in an academic setting. The module also described the pros and cons of each modality. In my teaching experience, I like using a combination of modalitles.

Learned that: " Obtaining feedback from students to assess the technology communication tool in formative and summative formats provides the instructor with ongoing feedback throughout the course. Therefore, changes can be implemented immediately throughout the course and the entire communication tool can also be assessed."
Properly using online tools is a very effective way of communicating with students, and efficient for learning.
In a time when many new applications or communication tools are available, I think it is really important to determine the best tools to use. I am glad the content in this course said an instructor doesn't have to use all of the tools available to him/her. Students can easily become overwhelmed if too many tools are being used. The instructor will possibly be overwhelmed, also. Finding the right tools for effectiveness is really the key. I liked the recommendation to evaluate every 3-5 weeks, too. Online students need to voice when tools aren't working but may not feel comfortable doing so unless the instructor invites this information.
