 Informative Tool

In this session, we have learned about the informative tool. Informative tools are the applications which provide vast repositories of information through videos, images, texts, graphics, sound and animations. With those applications, teachers can create a stimulating learning environment by encouraging learners to explore, think critically, develop research skills and learn to integrate relevant information. Not only that, informative tools encourage the learners to examine material and improve their understanding of learning ideas. Henceforth, it offer learners the opportunity to examine validated internet resources. Moreover, it offer raw materials for pupils to arrange, reorganize, compare, and construct. Because it plays a vital role in grooming our youngster into a talented beings, we must integrate this tools in the classroom during teaching and learning process. To achieve that, teachers must provide information or references for the students in the beginning or during or after the activity, ask the students to analyze, synthesize and manipulate the information provided thereby asking them to construct their own knowledge and meaning.

 

We also learned to make a simulated lesson out of one slide PowerPoint including all the formats (text, audio, video and image) to deliver the concepts well to the primary students. I have created a lesson on the topic “I Can Count” for class pp English. Through this simulation, the students will be in a position to grasp the concepts quickly with the usage of all the required formats. This is the link for the video i have created.

Steps to create a single slide PowerPoint:

Step 1: gather the relevant information on the topic you are going to make a presentation.

Step 2: analyze and manipulate the gathered information to make a ppt.

Step 3: opened the PowerPoint slide, insert a rectangle and dragged it from the top left corner to the bottom right corner.

Step 4: change the fill color of the rectangle and write the topic, subject, and class.

Step 5: then add the animation respectively.

Step 6: repeat the third step and hid the first slide of the PowerPoint.

Step 7: select “with previous” animation in the animation pane so that the slides will maintain its flow simultaneously.

Step 8: repeat the step number three several times until you write all the content that you wish to deliver. Also insert the images.

Step 9: insert a voice over by recording your voice using the audio recorder from the tool bar and insert it in the slide.

Step 10: insert a downloaded YouTube video related to the topic you are going to teach.

Step 11: play the PowerPoint.
