Portfolio III

 

Portfolio

The internet has significantly changed how we communicate with one another as well as how we share and facilitate information.

Although online teaching and learning using various social media was advantageous during such difficult time, there were many other challenges that made my online engagement bit difficult. I could not carry out my plan as I had thought. I actually had planned to try to reach children through the tool like “zoom meetings”, but failed as many of my children were not able to get to this apps. Some says it was difficult due to network coverage, some of their mobile did not supported and most of them had mobile with working parents.

With the challenging situation of the world and software technology development, I found using WeChat and google classroom plays the important role in learning and preparing them in their future workplace environment. Information sharing was easy. I could provide resources online through sharing the link.

On 27^th September I taught mathematics lesson on “Division” through WeChat for grade III children.

During this lesson, I first send a video clip showing them division as sharing. Then I provided them the information and the activities from the Self instruction materials (SIM).

The lesson was big successful as I could see most of my children were able to complete the given activities accurately and submitted on time except for those who were provided with the Self instruction materials (SIM)                                                                     

It was challenging to reach those children with Self instruction materials (SIM), after making calls to people with mobile from that particular place, talking to Gups and tshokpa I was able to make then carried out that activity.

If the situations favors, I am planning to visit or make a meeting point to check their works and help them learn with face to face interaction.
