Week 10 - 10 exceptional weeks of building teaching web skills!
The course we are about to graduate has provided us with exceptional, motivating online teaching resources which I am planning on further exploring with my adult students in the military. The course designers have delineated a gradual progression...
creating a reflective blog;
designing ABCD learning objectives framework and effectively searching the web;
exploring oral/aural skill-building websites and bookmarks with Delicious;
experimenting reading/writing websites and technology-enhanced lesson plans;
working on Project-based learning, WebQuests, and rubrics;
expressing opinions on student-centered large classes;
creating an interactive PowerPoint;
finding out more about learner autonomy, the one-computer classroom, and mobile devices;
testing students' learning styles;
developing a project using a new technology tool or technique.
I feel I have built and grown not only online teaching skill, but also invaluable (one of Ahmed's favourite words when describing excellence:)))) life skills.
It has been win-win-win!
Thank you,
