week 10

I did and learned many things throughout the course and I can summarize it as follow: I learned how to technologically plan and how to create my own blog .I created my own blog site. I learned about Searching Acadimic information using different search sites but not Google like Academicinfo ,Intute, Wikipedia, Iseekeducation,Sweetsearch and I also learned and applied ABCD method in setting the behavioral objectives which expanded my information that I had about ( Blooms' Taxonomy). I read and learned about the oral skill building websites and shared the following oral web skills sites on Nicenet: http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/listen-and-watch http://www.englishtown.com/online/your-teachers. http://www.esl-galaxy.com/speaking.htm I also learned how to create my own delicious at Delicious.com . I had my own and added my favorite bookmarks . I learned how to guide students to choose , read , share and evaluate e-books. I learned how to make technology lesson plan and how it is different from the normal lesson plan I read some articles about PBL, alternative assessment, making rubrics and webquests. Then I prepared my own rubrics from rubistar.com I read about engaging students , dealing with large classes , making effective discussion interactive, interactive website, and making interactive PPS for effective teaching. I also prepared my own PPS . I read some articles on learner autonomy and how we could develop learner autonomy. I had information about teacher resources .I learned about creating crosswords exercises , using HotPotatoes to make various exercises, printable word like dice, and prezi . I read some articles about learning styles and ways of dealing with learners according their learning style when using technology in teaching and learning. I also did and learned about making a project on which we learned and did step every week starting from the second week until we finished and wrote the final project report. The most important thing I liked was the gentle and clear instructions according the clear rubrics and rules we had in the first week.

    I agree with Said and Belal, hope to stay in touch in the future, not only us, but our students may benefit as well.
    The summary you prepared includes a lot of what we did and gives a complete idea of the program

  4. Hello Riyaz,

    I agree to your statement "The most important thing I liked was the gentle and clear instructions according the clear rubrics and rules we had in the first week." I also believe clear instructions, rubrics and rules at the beginning is what makes this course successful. Without these, we might have gone haywire. Keep in touch!

    I hope we will have the opportunity to share more in the near future.
    So soon
