Impressions with classroom tools

 

So, this week module was the first time I had a hard time to relate with the content from the class to my experiences. As I work in corporate my experience with other classroom tools is very limited. The classes I took when I was an undergrad didn’t involve any of the tools we saw this week. So everything was very new to me.

One of the tools that called my attention was Piazza. At least the way it is setup for this class, it allows to ask different questions and creates a sense of community as everyone in the class it’s going through the same experience. I can definitely see this being used in the classroom as a way for students to share insights on a topic and allowing others to provide feedback and this way everyone learns from each other.

It gave me a different perspective on how classrooms now might be using Web 2.0 tools to interact with their students.
