Week 10

This is the last week of the course and I'm missing the readings  and checking websites already. As I told my colleagues it was hard work but I learned lots of new things.  Online tools were very useful to apply them in class: webquests were my favourite. I also liked rubrics and online exercises to print or not. Also the learning styles week was very productive. What I missed was some lessons about CLIL to exchange opinions and experiences about it.I'm presently teaching Arts and Crafts in English to my 5th  grade students. I just talked about CLIL with Jurgita who is also teaching a CLIL class and we think it's a very interesting way to learn a foreign language.
What I think about the course is that it has been very practical and I applied many online tools and plan to  add more to my classes. I hope that when the school year finishes in three weeks I'll be able to review websites and readings from Robert's course to keep learning more and organising ideas.
Sometimes I think it's a pity that we couldn't meet to continue exchanging ideas and good practice with our course mates. But of course we are from all over the world !!!

  1. Hi Mariaang,

    You are not alone. I feel the same. However, do not feel sad because we will be always in touch and share our experience.

  2. Hi Angles

    You have confirmed the milestones of the course. At last we are almost near the goal. But the journey continues and will continue in future. As for the course I am leaving it with a satisfaction in mind but like you my heart is also heavy as the time of saying good bye is approaching. Let's join the 'Google group' by Said Husain and keep in touch.

    regards

  3. Hi Angles,
    I agree with you that the past ten weeks were hard but exactly they were beneficial and we could touch the blossom of victory. I think as Kayyum said , it is the most really hard to say good bye. The team and the instructor are unforgettable and as an Arabic proverb stated that " this who taught me a character, I became his slave".

  5. Hello Angel
    You have summarized it all, it was a short course packed with bounties. At the end of it we come hungrier to know more about it.
    I would like to tell you that I was a great pleasure to share the class with you. You have been wonderful throughout the course.
    Looking forward to hearing from you!

  6. Hi Maria,

    We couldn't meet on Nicenet but we can still keep in touch! I plan to keep my blog and share what I learn here in Malaysia or in fact, from everywhere, on the blog. I do hope everyone does the same too so we can keep the ball rolling.
