Elearning with the Ilearn Model was previously introduced to my school through inservicing. I personally have discovered that the purpose of this Model is to provide a framework for future teaching and learning opportunities.
I have learnt that it is not just about technology but it is about engaging and challenging learners by equipping them with necessary skills and resources. This will, in turn, promote effective communicators, creators and collaborators in the local community as well as internationally.
Elearning engages students and teachers through electronic learning which develops their educational skills. This embraces computers and technology whereby networks are established and people are able to share their knowledge.
By implementing this model, students will become reflective and responsible learners. The teacher acts as a facilitator in this process. The key emphasis is on students being able to optimise their learning when they are engaged and challenged. Once the students have effectively demonstrated these skills, they are able to optimally utilise the web 2.0 tools in order to share their learnings and achievements with each other and the wider community.
I would like to thank CEO for providing this invaluable opportunity to further my professional development in the areas of Elearning and Web 2.0 tools. I feel this has encouraged me to think out of the square and broaden my teaching experiences.
I am looking forward to implementing Web 2.0 tools in the classroom and I believe that my students will greatly benefit as a result. I feel that children need these skills in order to prepare them for their future. For instance, they will be able to share and collaborate with their peers and teachers confidently and they will become responsible and motivated learners.
