Great interatctive learnig sites

Today during class, everyone presented the learning resources they had found and analysed and I was absolutely amazed by how many free websites there are out there on the internet. And to my surprise, they weren’t bad either.
My fellow students were able to find a large variety of online resources related to the KLA’s in stage 1-3.
Some of them were really good on were based on the constructivist theory as the programs allowed the students to create their own work rather than just teaching them.  Kerboom.com is a great example for one of those websites.
This is a really important aspect as students learn more if they are actively creating (Jonassen et al. 2008).
As we looked at the individual sites, I realised how important the bookmark “Delicious” can be, especially if we can all have access to each other’s bookmarks.
This way we can all work together in the search for great learning aids and tools and use them in our challenge of becoming great teachers.
