WEEK 7

Here is my week 7 reflection. I liked this week because it helped me solve one of the problems I have in class, using one computer. The reading provided me with useful tips on how to use it in class. New ideas for projects. I was also able to read others comments what they shared when they designed one sample lessson for one computer. The ideas of this site http://www.lburkhart.com/elem/strat.htm are awesome. I designed my lesson and received feedback from Poncho, this is my favorite part when someone else takes time to read my work. I have my partner for the project draft. Learned about learner autonomy and realized how importat is to foster in class. and give students strategies to develop and help them to become autonomous. See you soon

Week 6

Here is my post, a little bit late but anyway here it is. Throught this week I was able to read articles related to create student center class and how to improve my practice through the use of power point presentations. Designing ppt has always been a challenge for me, because I am used to design simple presentations (teacher center), I was not aware of the many uses of this tool to engage students in learning a lenguage. I was able to design a game in power point which I believe my students will realy enjoy.

WEEK 5

My reflection for this week is the following: I learnt how to use rubrics which I always consider to be something very difficult to use and create. After reading the articles in the reading section I was able to understand better how to use them. Another thing useful was the PBL approach and use of Webquests to teaching. I shared with you my wiki and projects I have worked with my children at the kindergarten. Looking forward to start week 6.

Week 4

W E E K 4 I´ll keep it simple this time. The article by Margo Dill How to write an Integrated lesson plan, provided me with detail instructions which are easy to follow and implement in my own context. This week was related to reading/writing skills building and technology, I am facinated by the endless uses of Internet in the classroom to enhance learning. Many of us are reluctant to use new technologies, therefore these suggestions are just what I needed . Once again, I have deeply enjoied the readings, full with options that I can use to help my students improve their learning. I was also able to make a technology enhanced lesson plan and include an ABCD objective. Moreover, having the opportunity to read others planning will help me to improve mine. Ready for Week 5. Natz
