New page

The Free and Open Source Software world has thousands of software applications which can be freely explored by teachers. Many of these tools can be used for learning different school subjects. A tool like [[Learn Geogebra|Geogebra]] can help demonstrate many mathematical principles and support learning of concepts. [[Learn Marble|Marble]] is a digital atlas that can be manipulated in ways that a print version cannot be. [[Learn Stellarium|Stellarium]] converts your computer into a planetarium.

One advantage of many of these tools is that they do not present 'ready made content' but provide a canvas of menu options, which teachers can use, to create materials for learning and configure to address learning needs. A tool like Geogebra can be used to create resources. Other tools like Marble do not support creation of resource files, but lessons can be created using Learn_Screenshot| screen shots]] of the application and combining it with text. [[Learn_record_my_desktop|Videos]] can also be created.

You can also [[Learn Ubuntu|download]] many more software applications and you can search for these with keywords which could be your subject names. Engaging with multiple tools can broaden the understanding of how software applications can be used for subject teaching.

+We have seen earlier that the power of using ICT in teaching learning lies in understanding the in the interplay between content, pedagogy and the available technologies.  Pedagogy includes all strategies and technologies.  While technologies include both digital and non-digital technologies, the possibilities of creation with ICT have made available new possibilities for content and pedagogy.  We saw earlier the ways in which we can look at [[ICT teacher handbook/ICT in teaching learning|ICT in teaching learning]] as well as the the framework for [[ICT teacher handbook/Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge TPACK|integrating technology, content and pedagogy]].  To realise the possibilities of constructivist approaches integrating technology, it is important for technology to allow possibilities for creating and collaborating and not merely represent content in static ways.
