This week I learned the essence of one computer classroom. We all tried out new ideas and posted some articles on Padlet about learner autonomy.
My bonus for this week was that I started implementing my project to my class. It was about the improvement of the speaking skill via web tools. The web tool I chose is a website: www.thematic.co
Unlike a power point presentation, you are not allowed to put a lot of writing on the photo slides-only one ortwo sentences. I believe that this will push the students to TALK.
We'll see the results in a week, and I'm so excited now;)

Dear Aysun,
ReplyDeleteit is true that we've been learning a lot from the course itself and from all participating teachers in the course. Planning technology-based lessons using Thematic, that something copletely new for me. I'm sure the good results will show instantly as using visuals in the classroom is, in my opinion, one of the most effective teaching methods.
See you around Partner,

Hi Aysun,
ReplyDeleteI share the same feeling about the course coming to a close and we have to do something about staying in touch with each other. I personally have learned a lot from you and got inspired by your knowledge and experience. I am very glad to know that your project worked very well and that students like it. Stay busy and productive!
