FINAL REFLEXION Include a brief reflection
What is the importance of including ICT resources in your future academic life?
In my opinion, I see ICT resources as a useful tool to learn, especially if we are going to teach a
second language. There are several reasons to look ICT as a facilitator of the teaching, for
example, through ICT resources such as Youtube we could learn easily through videos and
tutorials motivating students to learn. The second example is google docs, through this service
we could work in groups at the same time, it is a helpful way to work each other. There is
another resource called google drive, here we could upload and store our documents.
We have to be aware that students need different methods to learn; moreover, to learn a
second language is not that easy, it requires a lot of work from part of the teacher. I consider
ICT as a facilitator of the learning process, you have access in almost all schools, if you do not
have a computer you could use a smartphone or a tablet, work with ICT catch the attention of
students more than work with worksheets.
As a conclusion, we need to innovate the way we teach, we are in the 21th century, so the way
to teach with worksheets and write on the whiteboard has passed away.
