How we can integrate the information tool in teaching and learning

when teaching season we can use animation, image and sounds to make them have a clear

will recognize the seasons easily and retention of concept will remain longer. We can always
integrate different information tool to teach the concept which will not make teaching monotonous and will provoke the interest of the students in the learning.
