Reflection 6 (8/4/2022)

As most countries were affected by a coronavirus and demand a work from the home scheme; we need to know the communicative tools that help us to bring the family, office workers, teachers, and students together. During the sixth session, we learned about the communicative tool that is used in the classroom, their types, and, their benefits. It refers to the applications or tools which enable easy communication between the teacher and the students beyond the physical barrier either by learning space or time. Examples of communication tools include social media, email, chat rooms, blogging, zoom, and Google classrooms.

There are two types of communication; synchronous and asynchronous communication. Synchronous communication enables real-time communication that requires a higher degree of interaction and helps solve urgent issues. It includes telephone, videoconferencing, and instant online chats. Asynchronous communication doesn’t require the users communicating to be logged on the internet at the same time and learning content can be learned as per their schedule convenience. It includes prerecorded video, discussion forum, email, audio clips on social media, and upload of text messages.
