This week was to put words into real action. I have learned about how to create my own stuff for my students and I am planning to teach them to create more online and offline activities so as to have a big data base that might be used at my school and shared among student and teachers all over the world maybe.
The idea of creating a Nicenet class for one of my courses and creating a class blog on Blogger as well as creating a class survey using Google docs and creating a class website or wiki on Google Sites. This is awesome as this way you put what you learned into action.

So many tools and ways to perfect your work as a PROFESSIONAL teacher, I feel like in a maze.
Hello Hesham
ReplyDeleteDefinitely this week was full of resources; either we use it online or offline. If a teacher knows how to use all these, really s/he'll a creative professional; students will have opportunity to discover their language learning instrument online, truly motivational towards learning. I think we, all had a great week full of resources.
Nice, Best wishes for the next.

Hi Hesham!
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned a nice idea here of creating a data base! Thank you!
Good luck with the project in Week 9!
Dear Hesham,
ReplyDeleteIndeed, lucky are the students who have the opportunity to learn using such tools which introduce a sense of fun in the process.
Classrooms should no longer be dull when teachers have access to such online tools.
Good luck with your Final Project.
Best,
