Data Usage Skills of Digital Tools

Basic elements of e-learning
Teaching-learning processes through the Internet.
Physical separation between teachers and students, but with special and close communication.
Continuous didactic interaction.
Students who are independent and the protagonists of their training
Self-managed learning, tutored and assessed.
And all this is complemented by the help of the wide possibilities that digital tools provide to this type of training and teaching - perhaps new and surprising for some due to the Covid19 pandemic - which already has a long history and experience long before we had to stay at home in that March 2020 that will remain in our memory.
As a paradigmatic example, let's cite and gloss over some of them, which will complement the e-learning platforms where the courses are usually hosted , and of course, we will analyze those social networks with which we sometimes have that love-hate relationship. E-learning also needs them.
Visual and design tools for e-learning
CANVA
Canva is a tool that has gained a lot of attention from users. It is an easy-to-use program for creating useful images for social media, advertisements, and print material designs.
But beyond that, it can be used for making presentations (since it has attractive templates). It is known for its filters and its ability to create consistent brand logos.
Try out their free options first to see if they meet your needs. You can edit your presentation from anywhere: mobile device, tablet or computer.
PREZI
At the time, it was recognized as the most innovative executive presentation program of 2018. It has a free basic version and plans that vary according to the level of presentations required.
The basic format of a presentation in Prezi simulates the zoom tool. With a virtual camera you can zoom in and out on specific sections of the presentation; you can also add videos, graphics, and text.
Prezi is designed for remote presentations, offering high resolution and delivering the highest quality on all devices (even without an internet connection). Prezi also allows you to use your mobile device as a remote control.

How to use social media in the digital classroom
Let's face it: social networks have their good and bad press. But not all are the same and each has its own character. And all of them, although it may seem hyperbolic, have their educational use.
LINKEDIN
It is the professional social network par excellence. It is a serious tool for making yourself known professionally and professionally. A trainer can use it so that his/her students learn to build a career path through a digital CV appropriate to their job expectations. It can be used to carry out active job search practices and to share articles and ideas that provide a portrait of the intellectual-work maturity and preparation of any person looking for work.
It can and should be used to know how to discern the job offers that appear and, above all, to have and maintain a group of essential contacts to “be in the labor market.”

FACEBOOK
It allows interaction between digital “friends” to share all kinds of information, videos, music and thoughts. It requires a certain seriousness of digital etiquette and not everything goes.
Its educational use is evident and given the possibility of doing it in a semi-private way, the protection of shared content is also reserved for private groups, such as an e-learning group.
Since there is no limit on the number of words you can type, it is ideal for background communications and sharing stories and experiences.
TWITTER
It is the most informative and immediate social network. Its limited characters and multimedia do not make it the most appropriate for interaction, but it does make it the most appropriate for students to be informed and to be able to inform and give their opinions on hot topics. The problem is that its etiquette is becoming less and less demanding and discussions or opinions end up in disqualifications and/or coarse words.
INSTAGRAM
The social network for photography par excellence, very appropriate for visual interaction in an almost direct way. Obviously, its pedagogical value will depend greatly on the content shared, its worldliness or seriousness.
It is a very appropriate network for messages, phrases, mottos or slogans included in the images. The use of memes can also be appropriate to collect originality and ingenuity in students.
As students begin to search for information on the web and create maps of their i kuwait travel agency whatsapp number deas relative to one another, a visual pattern or hierarchy begins to emerge. Creating these patterns, or maps, is a strategy for learning, organizing, understanding, and remembering information.
One way to measure student understanding in classroom or e-learning is to measure how well they understand the context of a problem or topic.
Using digital graphic organizers and flowcharts as a study tool when reading expository texts, such as laboratory procedures, government documents, and journals, increased test and exam scores.
When it comes to data management , there are a number of objectives that students should take into account in order to become familiar with information and the media.
Ability to analyze , access, manage, integrate, evaluate and create information in a variety of forms and media.
In addition, to become expert problem solvers and develop thinking skills, students must identify or formulate a problem , analyze the data, and find a solution.
In all subject areas it is essential that you acquire the ability to synthesize large amounts of information into a coherent format and communicate the information clearly.
Once students understand these patterns, they are empowered to test the data, find new conclusions, and communicate those relationships, trends, or patterns to others.
Conclusion and reflection
Increasing the effective use of digital tools in education seems primarily a matter of increasing knowledge about which digital tools in education are effective, creating common support for the use of digital tools in education and the way they are used among those who actually have to use ICTs.
If teachers and learners are sceptical and do not see immediate benefits from using digital tools in class, this can be a major barrier to a successful learning process, and even more so in e-learning because of its very distance, which requires digital means to achieve vital closeness. Therefore, a successful implementation of digital tools will also require good leadership from teacher trainers, and of course, from the administrations and owners of training centres.
