Lesson 9

Technology Collaborative Tools in the Digital World


Lesson Objectives

At the end of the lesson, the students should have:


Identified and explored collaborative tools or
applications that can be integrated in instruction

2. Built a platform or an online account that can be


used for a collaborative work
Introduction
The learners of this generation are a new kind of breed and it is
important that teachers understand how to deal with them. They seem to
thrive in collaborative learning. They like to connect to the social
networking sites. Creating and producing something are what they prefer
to do rather than become consumers of information inside the classroom.
They like to be mobile either physically or virtually as they traverse from
point to point or site to site. Apparently they seem to be investing a huge
amount of their time in a digital social environment although they can be
more self-directed in choosing what they want to learn, how they want to
learn and when they want to learn.
Think-Pair-Share
Technology as a Collaborative Tool

• One way to engage students is to give them a


challenge and a chance to work together.

information or come up with an agreement by texting,
emailing, chatting, or using the online document.

allowing you to do a
videoconferencing for

create a page or a selection of
pages designed to allow you to post

others can react allowing a thread of
discussion to take place and which

examples of blogs.
