This week has been the toughest! And it is not only me who thinks like this. This is the feeling I get after reading your blog posts or nicenet discussion threads. But the process of overcoming all the difficulties gets us closer to the stars, or at least to another improvement in our teaching career. In our case, we become more digitally literate, and thus, closer to our technologically friendly students. So we should change our place of residence and choose ANVILL, or Google sites, or Blogger, or Nicenet. Definitely I am joking, we should not go to extremes. Just we should take advantage of every technological tool that would bring diversity to the process of teaching and enhance the process of learning.
The other issue that caused so much panic was the creation of our first draft. But let's look at the positive side, we once again had the possibility of getting the thrill of the student life. I think it is good to be reminded of it from time to time, as it will make us think twice before assigning a certain task to our students.
As I am not teaching this semester, my project is prospective rather than retrospective. I truly hope to impliment the changes I have planned, but above all I am more than positive that the students will enjoy them.
One more thing, I love the idea of organizing webinars. I attended a couple in the past. I hoped that this one will be just as great as the others. Unfortunately I had some tech problems and I couldn't hear most of the webinar. Maybe you should organize more webinars? I think it's a wonderful opportunity of interacting online.

Poncho.
ReplyDeleteVicks, I agree we are becoming more digitally literates, and yes the drafts and the final reports remind me too my time as a student, oh, sweet memories!
On the other hand now that you mention, I was thinking on the same thing, why not a webinar with our people? Great idea!, Greetings partner!
By the way thanks for the poem you left on my blog, very, very nice.
