 I realised a change…
Learning in a collaborative environment changed the
attitude of learners. They started discussing and
sharing. Students uploaded their own work on the
network and got feedback and reflections from others.
Shy students started participating. Their confidence
level got raised.
Interactive applets/web resources helped in improving
understanding of poor achievers in the class. They also
started participating.
