Week 3 - Engage, Empower and Activate

It has been a mind-meltingly awesome week and its theme has been: clarity is more important than complexity. I have been exposed to very interesting readings on activating students' pronunciation, speaking and listening skills and I have taken valuable notes. I have also discovered Delicious,  a social bookmarking website that saves, and organizes links on the web. I have also become more and more familiar to what is expected of me as far as the final project is concerned.

On my way to developing a good final course project, these days, I have also dicovered a very useful cloud based LMS, called Canvas, that I warmly recommend for you to check up!

The cherry on top has been the fact that, this weekend, I have been given an imense opportunity to meet 4 amaizing teacher trainers at a 2 day conference in Bucharest, Suzzane Antonaros, Lilika Couri, both from Greece, and Andy Cowle and Olly Twist from U.K. The topic of the conference was very generous, Creativity in the English Classroom.
