Introduction
VYEW allows students to meet and share content in real-time or anytime. Upload images, files, documents and videos into a room. Students coordinate anytime to access and contribute. I would recommend Vyew because the ease of use. Students will be able to navigate and create without any trouble. The real reason why this site is a gem, is because the teacher can see all the activity that is going on. The teacher can take notes on the learning and collaboration of each student.
- Students:Work on group projects together – outline responsibilities, plan milestones, post your contributions for review, and comment on others’ work.
- Students learn best by collaborating By using Vyew,teachers make or upload course material for the students. The students then can collaborate meet online times and learn together.
- The site offers : A multi-modal environment for education and training. Almost any content can be uploaded to or created in Vyew for a rich, interactive environment that includes interactive Flash learning objects, audio, video, graphics, presentations, spreadsheets and text.
Weaknesses and Challenges
Even though this site is free to register, you have to pay to use it. However, the site does offer a package price of 99 dollars for 5 students. Money is always an issue when creating things online for students. In addition the challenge of this site working is based on the students themselves. It has to be clear that every student collaborates on time and are actually logging in. The teacher needs to be able to see if all students are participating in order to use this tool as an assessment. Or I guess that if a student is not using this system to help their peers then it is an assessment on the student.
Application to online classroom
- Collaborate experience in which students learn from and with each other.
- Create and develop social skills and abilities, to organize student’s thoughts, and develop rational arguments.
- As a teacher I have used this program. With the ease of accessibility, it makes online peer collaboration a breeze.
Learning objectives
- When the students are done looking over the group work; they will then assess and discuss their own feedback.
- Students recommend changes if any to those students in the group based of the initial feedback
