Week 10 farewell week

Dear all

First of all I would like to address my acknowledgement to the tutor  for her hard working and leading the course toward the success and my gratitude thankfulness to the University to give my such chance to participate in this beneficial course. To be more frankly I have learned a lot from this course even more than my expectation. I have learned to work as one team and really my classmates add a lot to my previous knowledge. Ten weeks have been gone smoothly and as usual happy days gone very fast.

I have learned to create a blog and write my reflection every week and share with others their reflections and feelings. I have learned to integrate the four skills with technology tools either in teaching or in learning. I have learned about tips in making an effective and interactive PowerPoint. I have read different articles like learners autonomy. I like bookmarking sites in my delicious. I think in the coming courses if we add facebook and twitter as learning tools will be more interesting.

I wish all the best for all the participants and for our lovely tutor.

Week 9

Hello Classmates
It is time to say goodbye. It is really an emotional moment mixed with sadness and happiness feeling. I am very happy that I have reached this week and I am sad that the course is about to end. It is really sad that you say goodbye to people whom I really respect and I have learnt a lot from them. I have learnt to be active person because of you my dear friends.
It is frankly a worthwhile course which has gone smoothly and everything was as I expect and more.
I have learned about many things that are going to help me to be a good teacher. This course will add many thing to my profession and will impact on the teaching and the learning.
In the first week, I  learned how to create a blog and I am going to cascade this for my colleagues and to my students. In the second week, I learned the ABCD objectives and this of course will helped me when I write a plan for my future lesson. Also, I learned about search engines and how they are effective when I or my students use to search for anything. Week 3, I learned about creating delicious and effective oral skills. Week 4, I learned how to make a good lesson plan and about writing/reading skills. I like very much learned about rubric and I like that website which is going to help when in assessing my students this was in week 5. In week 6, I read about tips when I use PPT and I did one and this will help my students in their presentations. Week 7, Learning autonomy is crucial for the learners that make them independent learners. Week 8 and 9 I work in the project and this was very helpful for me to put my ideas together and maybe some is going to benefit from its implementation.
Thank and see you in another course

Week 8 Reflection

This week was really amazing. The most amazing thing about the final project. I wrote the final project according to the templates. Yet there are many aspects that I missed. I would like to thank my dear partner Andrea for her reflection and checklist. She really gives me a clear idea about what I missed in my project.
Other things I like about integrating the technology in our teaching process. It will fantastic to do that. Since we are coming toward the end of the course. Where I can find all these good materials that I can use them in future or may I want to cascade what i learn this course to my friends in school. Any one has a suggestion to keep all the syllable and articles.
