My 2nd Week's Reflections


Hi,

I am almost done all my tasks in advance because I am enjoying my II term Holidays. I find a lot of time to read all other participants posts and blogs, It would be encouraging if the reading parts is available in advance so that if we have time we can complete  reading  in advance.

The first task I completed was web searching using different search engines; I came to know that there are other alternatives to Google search engine to find information on internet. Some search engines are more specific, for example Biography.com is to find people, I tried it to find my favorite Heroes Sway Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi, I got  fruitful results.

I also made a comment on my friends posts and I understand the difference between Website and Search engine by searching on Google in doing so I came across the Google’s free online course on power searching, I recommended this to my co-participants.

Next Task is to describe my class and ABCD objective while reading the information I  recollected all the learning theories that I learned during my teacher training program, at beginning I was jumbled to define the objective but our instructor  Donna helped me a lot to accomplice the task.

 Thank you Donna for being helpful.

Project Task: It’s a great opportunity for us  to apply our knowledge here itself, to do so I have chosen a project of maintaining E-Portfolios of my students in that I described my class and its settings it’s a kind of self-introspection how the things are going in our class by questioning ourselves How, what, why etc.
Finally,It’s a week of promising, stimulating, satisfying and encouraging .

  1. Hello, Vinay.
    Greetings from Ecuador
    I appreciate for your post and encouraging comments. I agree with you. This week has been very challenging as well as enriching. Particularly I have learnt that web searching is much more than “Googling”. There are many other good choices and useful search engines according to our doubts or needs. Writing objectives and analyzing learners was also a bit demanding. I have not used The ABCD Method before so it took me a couple of day to digest that kind of knowledge. However, thanks to Donna who has been very supportive, I was able to clarify my doubts and complete my task.
