Overview:
Students are used to smart gadgets, but for games or social networks, not eLearning platforms, or the correct collection of information. Online learning requires a change in pedagogical strategies, the permanent maintenance of students’ interest and a totally different assessment from face-to-face methods. Digitized face-to-face learning requires digitized information, applications, online programs.
The use of the students’ favorite tool in the educational act will facilitate a rapprochement of the students with the teachers and vice versa, thus increasing the interest in learning.
Studies show that the most effective uses of ICT are those where the teacher, aided by ICT, can challenge students’ understanding and thinking, and this can be achieved through whole class discussions and/or individual/small group workshops using ICT.
