Abstract :
This paper will concentrate on how teacher can support learners in creating their own learning tools conducive to learning. Authors will discuss how the journey in creating different learning tools has helped in getting better understanding of the concepts and processes. The learning tools created were then shared with other students and evaluated through use of email-surveys. Authors suggest that the process of learning through designing of learning tools could be time consuming but worth doing it
