Introduction

In this practical you will create visual maps that portray the set up of a number of different scenarios

Activity

  1. Using MS PowerPoint, design the layout of a physical learning environment to support ICT integration and learning goals in the following situations:
    • Classroom of 20 learners configured for a whole-group discussion referring to an overhead projector. The class has one sight-impaired student.
    • Computer laboratory with 15 computers and 30 learners configured for small-group discussions.
    • Remember to label all parts, including desks, chairs, computers and any other equipment you believe is necessary to install and maintain a computer-assisted learning venue.
  2. Now consider the school you were at as a student. If you could go back and the school had acquired 20 computers, demonstrate using the drawing tools in PowerPoint how you believe they should be set up.
