Week 4: My Reflection

What a wonderful course! Every day of the each week, I am learning new things, I mean, getting new links, from the vast ocean of the Internet, which seem to be almost impossible and very difficult to find out from the "Google search" .

The discussion thread on "nicenet.org" this week related to reading, writing and vocabulary is another powerful stuff to recharge a teacher with new skills. I am still collecting the useful links provided by the respected tutor and classmates. I have used some pages from the links which, I believe, was more effective for my class especially teaching grammar and listening skills. I am planning to use other links soon. The following links and search engines provided by our course tutor, Ms. Courtney, are really excellent pages for the English language teachers:

I read some articles from the links provided us. I have prepared a lesson plan With technology this week which is a new experience for me , and it will be a good model lesson plan in English teaching in the future, because the world is in information technology and IT is growing instantly in every field including education field.  I have learnt to upload the lesson plan document in "docs.google.com" where, I think, it will be stored for long term and the tutor and other classmates can observe, comment and edit it.

I hope I will get more and more in the next week which I am eagerly waiting for.
