My experience to use ICT in learning.

The experience that I want to mention is using the online learning enviroment. I most like the activity part. Especially, teacher added in the lesson with Gong- a communication tool with streaming audio . It is very interesting, when I participated in the discussion in Gong. Because I can hear others' voice, it makes me feel exciting. I think Gong is very useful, because:

---Time management. I am able to take part in the discussion at any time. Personally, When I have an idea, I just say it and then it will post the speech to the group.

---Kind. Because it is voice-based communication method, it is friendly. To some extent, it is like a real discussion.

---Resuable. I can review the records which were several days ago.

---Full preparation. Before I post my audio record to the group, I can check my speech. If I found some mistakes, I will have the chance to correct.

  2. We used it in 6311. Gong is a streaming audio. It is an asynchronous communication tool. Every record is a streaming audio. Clicking the record and the "play" button, we will hear the human voice. Users also can type words. Therefore, it is a useful tool for group discussion.
