Activity 3 – Roles of learners learning with ICT:


The most powerful lessons that I learnt about online collaboration:

  • I learned that I have to be patient with myself while I learned how to use mindmeister.
  • I also learned that sometimes (often) many minds think alike.




The most important points that I take from the Learners’ Charter:

  • That students should use ICT effectively in order to enhance their skills and appreciation of : 1.  Creativity  2. Collaboration        3. Communication  4. Critical Thinking.  These are skills that they will need in the years to come.  That time may be even sooner than we think.
  • That students should be allowed time to explore at their own pace.  In this way, we lose the desperation whose intellectual ability has not peaked by the time of the examination.
  • With the first two initiatives, the fostering of higher-order thinking skills would be a welcome consequence.
  • Teachers need to find time and space to use collaborations such as these...so that the Learner's perspective is never far from our plans and provisions.
