Lesson 7: Online Platforms as Tools for ICT Content and Development





Lesson 7: Online Platforms as Tools for ICT Content and Development

        In this lesson, which is about the Online Platforms as Tools for ICT Content and Development, I gained the knowledge regarding the different online platforms and their purposes. We use the Internet along with online platforms almost everyday in our lives to share information and to do/learn new things. With the use of online platforms, it can also increase our learning abilities and publish plans and other resources online that enables other users to access them. Facebook and Twitter are the examples of social media which allows people and organizations to create, share information, ideas, pictures and videos. Blogging is also a type of online platform that focuses on the content and usually looks like a newsletter where the user is given options to change the design to their liking. The examples of blogging are the Tumblr, WordPress and Blogger (the site that I am using).
        With the similarities of Microsoft Powerpoint, there are certain Presentation/Visualizations that can be used online like Prezi and Slideshare. I also learned that there are cloud computing sites such as Dropbox and Google Drive where the user can keep his/her files safe online, synced, and easy to share. Creating a web page (e.g. Wix and Weebly) which you can make your own is also a part of the online platforms. Storing and converting files can be done through online with zamzar and word2pdf.
         Finally, with the modern technology, anyone can search and map out the places they want to go with the use of Google Maps. Indeed, this lesson has really helped me a lot concerning the things I do online.
