Week1 Blog Experience Day2

Hello, dear colleges!!!

This is my second day at www.blogger.com. Today I tried to visit other participants blogs, leave some comments there and I  managed to do it!!! I found your blogs  GREAT!!!   Amjad seems to be very experienced in blogging, special thanks to him for his help and support!!!! As for me, still have many things to learn about blogging as the process of associating with others, attaching files, putting the links etc. 

I think, using blogs  is great and helpful teaching aid. Though I 'm not at all experienced in it, I can see what  benefits  it gives to learners, whoever they are and whatever their age is.  It's one of the great innovative teaching technique, which would definitely motivate the students to participation, even those who are kind of passive at classes. It's much easier to build a team and help students feel they are the parts of it,  still leaving the personal space to everyone. It gives opportunities for creative out-of-class activities. 

So, as soon as I know more about how to use blog more effectively, I'll definitely use it in my teaching practice, I'm sure it will encourage my students for better learning.

 I'll share my ideas and comments about Blogging for ELT on Nicenet later this week, hope to read your ideas and get your references as well.

Thank you,

Luba

    I love it. Frankly, I've never thought it would take such a short time to make us feel the beauty of blogging. We're a live example! I'm so keen on finding out more and more about how everyone one of us would exploit his or her blog in teaching.
