Firstly the most obvious thing that I discovered was the advantages of using situating tools in teaching and learning. Educators can guide learners in learning and at the same time learners also get supportive service from ICTs. I learnt that using situating tools can makes learners more realistic and rational in real life situation. Educators can make their teaching more meaningful using situating tools. There are many situating tools like simulation, virtual reality and multi-user domain in which learners can learn effectively and educators can teach through various form.
I have also learnt that situating tools are purposeful when certain real-life experience is impossible or difficult to attain. In this case users can experience the context and happening in real life situation. For example if a teacher wanted to show learner a place where they did not even reached like London. He can use Google map with 3D, satellite form, Taren etc to make them feel that they are touring the country in real life. I found this awesome because I did not that I can locate my house. After Google tracking I could see my real house in which I felt my presence with parents in it.
Experiencing real feelings on plane.
Using Google map we can visit to any places.
Even I have learnt that situating tools is similar to constructive tools that allow users to manipulate variables in the system. It is more on situating students in an environment for certain instructional purposes.
