Reflection - Module 2A-4 Activity 9

Wow! This was a very interesting activity. It just opens one's eyes to the varying quality (or lack thereof) of information available on the internet. There are some persons who believe that as long as the information  is on the internet, it can be used. However, we have all learnt that what you see is not always what you want. One must learn to evaluate the content and quality of a website before accepting the information available. This is a valuable lesson that must be taught to our students.

Whether it is a classroom with one computer or many computers, using spreadsheets to enhance the relevant lesson will prove very beneficial to the quality of teaching and learning. It is therefore vital that schools secure the necessary equipment in order to improve the learning environment. Teachers too must educate/develop themselves accordingly so that they can make the classroom a place where students are eager to learn.

The lesson using spreadsheets was quite a simple way of incorporating the concept into the lesson activity. I do believe that once teachers take the time to plan their lessons properly, this will awaken great interest on the part of the students. Consequently, this will generate much enjoyment and learning during and after the session.
