                             Firstly, I have uploaded a picture titled " Mountain " which was captured during my hike towards Genyen Latsho in the year 2020. Mountains are the world's 'water tower' providing fresh water resources for our planet. Through this children can learn forms of landscape, vegetation, and appreciate it as one source that provide us with basic necessities. The second image is based on " National Dress of Bhutan " which basically stresses on explaining the dress worn by Bhutanese people. Gho and Kira  are the traditional dress of the people of Bhutan.  Gho refers to the traditional dress of men of Bhutan. It is a knee-length cloth tied at the waist with a cloth belt known as the Kera.  Kira is the national dress of women in Bhutan. It is an ankle-length dress worn with a piece of rectangular cloth, wrapped and folded around the body and pinned at both shoulders. It is worn with a long-sleeved blouse called wonju, and a short jacket

The main construction of the temple was carried out by Thusay Dawa Zangpo and his 6 Lams. The temple was extended by the 25th Je-Khenpo Sherab Gyeltsen with the aid from local villages and donors. The name of the donors are still seen craved on the tree trunk. The temple was renovated by Her Majesty Gyalyum Kezang Choeden Wangchuck.  The temple is divided into three parts Ground floor (which is considered as hell) First floor (considered as earth) and Second floor (considered as heaven). The ground floor holds the Five Buddha of Meditation and forms of Avalokitesh

Critical Analysis on Learning Experiences

 A key component of education in the digital age is the Information and Communication Technology (ICT).It includes a broad range of tools and technology that are utilized for creativity, problem solving, and communication. ICT education is very important in the modern world since technology has permeated both our personal and professional life. ICT-skilled students are more capable of navigating the digital world and are better suited for the current workforce.

Reflection on Educational Tool

While considering the significance of educational tools in ICT, it is clear that these tools have completely changed how we interact, communicate, and share information. Traditional learning and working settings have been changed, presenting fresh opportunities. For me personally, communication technologies are quite useful in a variety of ways in teaching and learning. By leveraging these tools, individuals can harness the power of technology to enhance learning and expand their horizon, and thrive in the digital age.  First and the foremost, I value how interactive communication platforms are since they encourage participation and engagement. Social media, online discussion boards, and forum platform provides avenues for students, educators, and professionals to express their thoughts, ask questions, and engage in meaningful conversations  with a broad spectrum of people . This interactive environment promotes active leaning, critical thinking, and exchange of diverse perspectives. I

This majestic fortress was c onstructed by Ngawang Namgyal, 1st Zhabdrung Rinpoche, in 1637–38, it is the second oldest and second-largest dzong in Bhutan.  The dzong was constructed  as an "embodiment of Buddhist values"  and was one of the 16 dzongs built by the Zhabdrung during his rule from 1594 to 1651.  The Punakha Dzong, also known as Pungthang Dewa chhenbi Phodrang, is the administrative centre of Punakha District.  In earlier times, dzongs were used for defensive purposes. Now these are used for administrative as well as religious purposes. T he dzong houses the sacred relics of the southern Drukpa Lineage of Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism, including the Rangjung Kasarpani and the sacred remains of Ngawang Namgyal and the tertoen Pema Lingpa.  In view of the healthy climate in the region, Punakha is the winter capital of Bhutan. The head of the clergy of Bhutan with his entourage of monks spend the winter in this dzong.
