- ICT as an informative tool
After going through the topic of ICT as an informative tool, I learned that informative tools are the application that we used to store a large amount of information for learning. Informative tools include sound, videos, text, animation, graphics, and images.
The informative tool does not provide the information directly. Hence we have to explore the information through different sources such as television, internet, books, and radio to provide the learners with valid and authentic information.
As a teacher, we can integrate the information tool in the classroom by providing information/reference/content for the students in the beginning or during or after the activity. Besides, let students analyze, synthesize, and manipulate, and construct their own knowledge and meaning. Moreover, the use of an informative tool in a classroom will cater to the needs of different learning styles and can enhance their academic performance and motivate a child to learn.

Presentation on Hitler sexuality:
After making a presentation on Hitler Sexuality, I came to realized that it's not enough to get authentic and accurate information about the particular topic from only one source. More often we have to access different sources to get a bigger chunk of information from the internet. Moreover, I learned that whatever information given on the internet is not all the time true and facts about the particular topic. What we need to do is to check whether the sources are reliable and authentic or not first, then we need to compare and contrast referring different sources to get accurate information.
When I become a teacher in the future, I will brief them on how to access accurate and reliable information from the internet with examples. I will also provide activities such as providing them with a debatable topic and ask them to find information from the internet by weighing the pros and cons.
Hello Tashi. I can definitely see an enriching information on ICT as an information tool. Just like how sir mentioned last time, how about you include some of your experiences on this particular topic and how it may help students in future. If you can include these things, your reflection will be even better than now. But its just my suggestion. nevertheless, i liked the pictures used on Hitlers sexuality using different websites.
