Assessment 3 Teaching and Learning Technologies
In the creating of the group wikispace I was fortunate enough to be grouped with a great bunch of people. We brainstormed, collaborated and created an authentic learning experience for students to learn the wonders of Australia. The resource aims to provide different resource links and ideas to support the teacher in teaching the many different learning styles and literacy levels, using multimedia.
Our task was to create a sharable educational resource on an educational topic of our choice .We then had to collaborate and upload all our shareable resource to our Wikispace. Our group name is 'Land Down-Under' and our task encourages students to explore Austalia on a visual dimestion. Students will discover many differents aspects of Austalia, incorporating many elements of learning. Our group aims and objectives for this task, were to collaborate all our skills, knowledge and ideas, incorporating various subjects for the students to learn, and refelecting real life experiences and contexts.
