WEEK 6 Blog Reflection

Hello all,

This week we had a great topic for discussion. Improving and developing various learning styles is something every teacher thinks a lot of. Technology is a great supporting tool to achieve it.
This week we were asked to share ideas about ways of technology application to address a variety of learning styles in our classes. For the first time I tried to use some ideas of mine in practice before I posted them at Nicenet to check if they really work effectively with students.
What I really like about this course is those little discoveries. 6 week discovery for me was an idea posted by Aleyda about using Poll Surveys" with the help of mobile devices. Can't wait to use it in one of my classes soon.
I appreciate George's comments, valuable advice and questions that made me sometimes think in a different way that I am used to, he is a real professional.
I started working on the project with my students; the project I created and described last week. As my project will be developed in the course of three weeks, I took the first part of it. The first stage of the project seemed to work well. I also gave my students, those who work on the project the rubric for peer evaluation for them to know the assessing criteria at the presentation stage.
It's a pity another week has passed. But I am sure we still have many things to know and many ideas to share.

Hope to hearing from you soon again,
Best regards,
Luba

PS I am sorry I don't comment on your blogs, dear colleges. The website is still blocked in my country.

  1. Dear Luba,

    It is great that you had the time to actually try out the activity in class before writing about it! It is also great you applied a concrete rubric in class - seems it has been a week full of directly applicable knowhow. Lots of reasons for you to be proud.

    I hope the following stages of your project are as succesful as the first one.

    Best regards,
    Andreja
