Digital Portfolio: Summary

-
Summary of the Blog Over the course of maintaining this blog, I explored how Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is reshaping education. My reflections are based on personal experience and practical classroom examples, highlighting three main roles of ICT: as informative, communicative, and constructive tools. First, informative tools have made a huge difference in how we learn and research. Instead of relying only on textbooks or lectures, we now use online encyclopedias, educational websites, digital libraries, and multimedia resources to access information in text, images, audio, and video formats. For example, when working on research papers, I combine resources like Google Scholar for academic articles, YouTube for visual explanations, and interactive maps for global trends. These tools have helped me become a more independent learner, improved my research skills, and taught me to evaluate the credibility of sources. However, the sheer volume of information online can b...

Digital Portfolio: Reflection on three ICT tools

-
Reflection 1: ICT as an Informative Tool Informative tools give us access to huge amounts of information in formats like text, images, graphics, sound, and video. Having these resources at our fingertips has completely changed how we learn and find information. Instead of relying on just textbooks or lectures, we can explore topics in more depth and from different perspectives. These tools make learning more flexible and engaging. Before I learned the term "informative tools," I often used resources like online encyclopedias and educational websites without realizing what they were called. Tools such as online encyclopedias, educational websites, and digital libraries offer a vast range of information in various formats, including text, graphics, audio, and video. For example, when writing research papers, I would use Google Scholar to find academic articles, watch YouTube videos for visual explanations, and explored interactive maps to better understand global trends.

Reflection on Assistive Technologies

-
INTRODUCTION During my years as a student, I have both witnessed and experienced the wide diversity of learning needs among my peers, which has led me to reflect on how an inclusive classroom can truly be created. Learning about assistive technology has given me a clearer understanding of just how essential these tools are in turning the vision of inclusive education into a practical reality. The belief that every student-regardless of ability or disability-deserves equal access to learning opportunities is no longer just a theoretical ideal for me; it has become a guiding principle. As I explored various assistive tools, I saw firsthand how technologies like screen readers and speech recognition software can bridge gaps, foster independence, and empower students to participate fully in classrooms. These experiences have convinced me that assistive technologies are not just helpful-they are fundamental to creating an environment where all students can thrive.   WHAT IS ASSIST...
