Communicating - Science And ICT
Ciber Cafe by larskflem
A key feature of ICT is the way it can facilitate communication. Children's understanding of scientific concepts are constantly evolving and being able to easily update their work is a real benefit. Having an easy means of revising and changing work to reflect these ever-changing "constructions" is a powerful reason for using computers in science.

  • Standard Microsoft Applications can be used in creative ways to communicate their knowledge, some ideas include:
    1. Using PowerPoint to make a Quiz, or Alphabet Glossary. The tutorial on using action settings with PowerPoint may help.

    2. Making a report on planetary conditions into a Publisher based, Solar System Gazette, Book Master, or a Postcard from Neptune. The tutorials on Making Books With Publisher and Newspapers in Publisher may help.

    3. Using digital images to describe a Bicarb and Vinegar investigation in a text document or as a movie in the Chocolate Crackle PhotoStory. Other ideas for creating digital stories can be found at my DigiStories wiki.

    4. Using prepared templates with embedded URL's to provide a focus for literacy groups such as Energy Quest.
