Co-constructive tool

Students can use constructive tools to work cooperatively and construct a shared understanding of new information. Or support the construction of knowledge through a shared understanding (collaboratively consolidate the ideas) one ways of co-constructive is the use of the electronic whiteboard where students may post notices to a shared document/whiteboard. Students may also co-edit the same document from their homes.

The learning theory emphasize in co-constructive tool are cognitive theory, constructivism and behavior theory.

We can integrate co-constructive tool in our lesson by giving students with the questions like we did in ICT class. Example, giving questions to each and made them write on how and what they feel on that particular topic or question. Every member in the group can write on that particular question and co-edit on their friends work. If we use Google docs in our teaching and learning, it will be very helpful as firstly it creates active interaction among the members, they will be able to generate new knowledge from the discussion, can edit their friends work on spot and it will also help in co-construction of new knowledge from the existing knowledge.
