Constructive tool

The constructive tools are the application that help the learners to manipulate information, visualize one's own understanding and construct one's own knowledge. Some of the examples are concept map, word, spread sheet, power-point which the information can be organize, record, and manipulate. With the helps of these tools, the learners can present their ideas attractive in the forms of graph, picture, slide presentation, memos, reports and letters. Thus, this is the only tool that gives avenue for learners to create their own ideas.

I believe most of the teachers use and integrate constructive tools to teach and communicate. Using of constructive tools help both the teacher and learner to convey and comprehend the ideas easily. Thus, it is essential to integrate in teaching and learning. Where students have a liberty to manipulate the information, visualizing their own  ideas and building the idea in their own. So, it enables learner to become more innovative thinker.

I found it very interesting and engaging where students explore through different tools to construct their own knowledge. It keeps students engage through the lesson, unlike the teaching in normal class. We can integrate those tools in our lesson by manipulating the information and planing a lesson in a power-point or word. Therefore. this tools not only engage the learners but it also make learning environment lively.

I mostly used power-point presentation as a tool to deliver the information. Since, i can create an effective presentation by using the features such as animations, word-art, audios, slide background, font colors and images which makes the presentation interesting and effective. Lastly, this tool not only foster the teaching and learning but it also enhance the knowledge of those tools.
