Communication tools are very essential for learning in a
connected classroom. They can assist shy students to improve communication with
teachers and other students. They can also enable students to share ideas more
openly. They can also be used to introduce new concepts, materials and the
knowledge in a meaningful way. Students can use digital tools to create
stories about events, places, family, characters, books they read; memories,
advertisement, feelings. They can create announcements, news, movie trailers,
personal expressions and many more. There are a vast number of communication tools that can be utilized including voice thread, blubbr, wiggio,
zimmertwins, dandelife and bookr.
Communication tools are sometimes very difficult to use when collaborating online, especially in a synchronous way. Persons may have varying difficulties accessing communication tools due to work schedules, lack of internet access or poor time management.
