Co-constructive tool

Co-constructive tool is define as the applications that supports the construction of knowledge through a shared understanding. This tool is also known as collaborative tool because it creates avenue for learners to interact, co-edit, make a comment, and share their works with other. Tool such as google docs, blogs, electronic whiteboard, and discussion forum in vle are the examples of collaborative tool. This tool allows the learners to work collaboratively as i mentioned before. 

Personally, tool like google docs was helpful for students.Its because unlike other tools allows only one users to control the whole things but google docs can be accessed by the all the members. In google docs we all can co-edit the work, make comments, invite the friends, and allows to share in internet and friends. It helps the students to work together and collaboratively inside the google docs. 


This kind of tools can be accessible anytime, anywhere and need not require to meet face to face interaction. It creates virtual interaction among the friends, can exchange the vast ideas, can edit and comment at the same time, and also helps in co-constructing of new knowledge. One way of co-constructive is the use of the face-book where students may post notices to share document. Students may also comment the others document from their home.


It is very essential to integrate those tools while teaching and learning because it promotes collaborative learning. As i mentioned that this kind of tools invite learners to work together. In which they involved series of cognitive process like explanation, problem finding and solving. Here learning ultimately becomes active and intentional as students involved in co-editing, refining, and constructing their work.
