The tool I used in this lesson is ThinkLink. This is a great educational tool because it allows students to actively learn about topics. It’s helpful for me because it allows for different types of teaching and also different learners to engage in the topic. It is an interactive tool that isn't just limited to the information that has been taught and that is already known, it allows the students to learn from other sources on the internet. That's why it is a good idea to add pictures, videos, and links to the ThinkLink, it broadens the students horizons.
Pros of this tool was that it allows the students to learn and interact with the technology that they are using. ThinkLink is also great because you can make all the tools interactive and adjust to certain learning types.
Cons the students can get distracted, they can go to other things on the internet
I would use this tool to allow students to learn and relearn what they feel like they are lacking or what they want to learn more about. It would also be a good tool to allow the students to use technology and also introduce them to new technology sources and how useful it can be in their education.
It will be great for students to watch the videos and also follow the links that the ThinkLink has in order to add to the students learning. The tool allows students to look around and also learn from what they are doing on the technology side of learning and interacting and this would be a great way to utilize this tool, in a way, killing two birds with one stone.
