Learning Objects

I like the idea of having online resources as an anchor to theory principles. There are a number of advantages to learning objects that can benefit everyone that is involved in the learning process. Content is recycled and flexibility is increased. These are important in education because teachers often are teaching to standards. These standards prevent some group-based theories to thrive in a classroom. Using resources that are developed and shared on the internet expands the potential learning field for students. It takes time to develop lessons and with the help of online resources, teachers can give more time to the students. There are some disadvantages that should be addressed. If the standards are complex, creating and using the correct resources will be difficult. Also, the economy types make it difficult for access to important information.

As a student in the 21st century, using learning objects is essential to education. As a teacher, using online resources will help students with understanding topics. I would suggest that teachers obtain access to all of the sites that they need.
