Reflection on Co-constructive tool

Co-constructive tool

Just as the word co-construct means, a co-constructive tool is an approach, where it is an emphasis on collaboration, and partnership working. It also includes the process of interaction such as cooperation and coordination among us. We are all aware of how this tool is important in our day to day life and how it impacts our life. 

Through Co-constructive tool, the communication between the teacher and learners that focuses on learning will improve drastically and students will able to explore and share their views in term of learning. They will also be able to build a relationship between society to have effective communication and learning.  We can develop creative partnerships within the classroom as well as societies and use constructive tools to work cooperatively and construct a shared understanding of new knowledge. Students can achieve high-level cognitive processes like explanation, problem - finding, problem solving and more relevant skills that are in their life.

 After knowing what and the importance of co-constructive tool, I think it is very important in our life as a student and soon to be a teacher. Because we can use co-constructive tools, we can communicate and construct ideas from anywhere within short period of time. For example, as of our situation now, where we have to keep our physical distance and where schools and colleges being closed, we have no other options but to use these tools to continue our learning. 

The perfect example of this tool is Google Doc.  When my tutor first told us that we are going to make a integrated lesson plan using google doc, I honestly didn't have any idea about it. Until now, I have absolutely no idea what is google doc and the purpose it serves. Google doc is a word processor and can be used simultaneously by team members on the same document. It gives us the privilege to work together from different places at the same time. 

 

 

 This are the pictures that we worked on google doc while planning a integrated lesson plan lesson plan on any topic. 

Just by looking at the pictures, we can see that there is a discussion taking place and we all can work collaboratively with other members.  I guess this tool is much more better than really coming together physically to discuss. We can be at anywhere we like and still work together like its no big deal. 

Because of this co-constructive tool, I came to conclusion that this tool can be definitely used in school. We can give them project work or any activities and let them work using goggle doc and I am sure that they will work collaboratively among their friends and learn fruitfully.
