THE EDUCATIONAL ASPECTS OF ICT

You and I can use ICT and participate in the development of the society J

Today, with the development of ICT, we are able to study at College from long distance. We are using Learning Management System (LMS) to communicate and delivered tasks between teacher and students. The communication and feedback between students are also something that develops learning. Mine experiment is that I got the same, or maybe more/better feedback from the teacher online, than in a classroom with 30 students.

Some LMS using at schools today: Its Learning, Fronter, Moodle.

Lev Vygotskij’s (Russian theoretician) perspective of socio-culture fit in here: knowledge creates and bought further by interaction. Education with ICT builds on a constructivistic view of learning.
This video shows us, by Andrew Johnson, Lev Vygotskij's theori about socio-cultural learning: 

This video shows us, also by Andrew Johnson, the theori about the Zone of proximal development (ZPD)

Education with ICT builds on a constructivistic view of learning. Lev Vygotskij extended the theory, and pointed the importance of social frame (Context) around our action. Social action comes first, then we’ll learn individual. If I get some help from a teacher, guidance, or a longer coming student I can reach a higher level. “Scaffold- building” (Jerome Bruner)

That’s the thing about LMS. In my school we use ”Moodle” to interaction online with the teacher and other students.  With portfolio assessment I can deliver a task in my portfolio, and the teacher will give me guidance and comments to make it better to the next delivering. Sometimes students are allowed to comment my work. That’s good learning. It makes me learn in the operative way, and not by figurative, because I’ll have to give my self-development both reflection and cooperation.

This way of learning, portfolio assessment, can be a useful tool to students that need adapted training.

Jean Piagets theory of learning can also fit here. We create our text and develop it in a process. We can build, change, and tear it apart all the time, and ICT makes it visible.
Today's text is not a prosess where we first draft, and then log it. I start to write, and then change it frequently till I publish the whole thing. This constuction of knowledge fit to Jean Piaget's learningtheori's   and other support of constructivism
We can use ICT in many ways, and the development of ICT in online learning is for the better for us people. Both development for broadband, and many option for long distance learning.
