Wow what a world we live in.Students worlds are accelerating at at an unbelievable pace.The ability for students to shine in the workplace is now at its best.What I would have used to construct my assignments would have taken me days of research ,hours of hunting through magazines using my limited creativity (through lack of ideas)skills has now been opened up to the new generation in the form of ICT.The engagement theory looks at the computer as a communication tool.This tool in the learning place is used to provide Authentic learning experiences that are meaningful. Students are encouraged to collaborate to complete their projects. As in this course in the form of forums emails, blogs etc etc . The WWWeb is a fantastic tool. Sites such as flick, picnic,mahara,wikipedia etc etc are some of the many fantastic tools avilable at the click of a mouse. Every class in every day in every lesson has some kind of link to ICT. If not presented to the children than it more than likely has been researched using some form of multimodal communication.
