What is seen through ICT (voki, flickr, Youtube)

One of the most profound uses of technology is what can be seen to help learners. there are a number of programs that allows manipulation of images, videos and other media concepts that allow for use in a learning environment, there is also a number of devices to view such images and programs each having their own way of editing media. The first example is Voki which can been seen on the side bar of this blog.I created what I like to call my virtual guide to this blog, in the voki I described what this blog is about and a brief overview encouraging people to look further, vistors would then only need to click the Voki to get a description of my work which is easily then reading through the blog. In the classroom Vokis have a number of advantages this includes bringing technology to the classroom, using Voki not only as a visual tool but a language tool, encourage students to the task at hand and help students explore other E programs which may be benifical to learning. Voki are a great way to change up classroom in the fact that instead of listening to the teacher they can listen to the voki avatar, students would not be bored with the same delivery style of lessons throughout their subject course.
