Explore Website Resources
Educational websites like
educational software are powerful tools that go a long way in helping to
transform pedagogical practices within the classroom from a teacher centered approach to a student
centered approach. This comes at a
critical juncture as we move towards making our schools child friendly while at
the same time equipping them with 21st century skills.
As part of the requirement for
activity 5a, I had the opportunity to examine several websites. Several of
them proved quite useful to me a Science teacher at the elementary level. These
site use innovate ways of presenting age appropriate information through
interactive, educational games and simulations. Additionally, students are
offered further support through digital worksheets and homework assistance
among other things. Teachers are also
offered support through the availability of lesson plans and opportunity for
collaboration with other educators in some instances. Some of the sites also
provide assistance to parents so that they can better help their child.
Below is a list of some of the
websites reviewed.
