In an earlier post here in Educational Technology and Mobile Learning, we argued that setting up a class virtual space in the cloud is an indispensable task for today's teachers. This space can preferably be a website, a blog, or a wiki or, if possible, all of them. The educational benefits of having such a space for students include:
Improve students writing skills through posting and commentingHelps students have a voice Promote the notion of independent and personalized learningPromote a spirit of collaboration among studentsEngage parents in the learning taking place in the classroomConnect with students from other schools and exchange with them learning experiences.As for teachers, they can use these class virtual spaces to :
Post assignments and homework to studentsUpload documents and other learning materials to studentsPost classroom announcements, important dates, event calendars...etcCreate portfolios to document students learningVia Gumersindo Fernández
