Week- 7 Reflections

Week - 7 My Reflections:

This week I came to know about a new tool that I can use  my class to make my students independent learners.i.e. wall wisher. This I am going to use  in my class to encourage my students to post the questions there.

Another task is to write an activity to use one computer to inspire the students to become autonomous learners.There I came to know how students are motivated  to learn if they have given a chance to participate themselves in class room activities.This task has taught me a new role teacher is playing in 21st century class-room.

Next task is to find a partner,Mr.Daniel  accepted me as his  partner thank you Daniel .

Project Task:This week I searched for information about my project i.e. E-Portfolios and Blended learning. I came across some jewels, I got enormous and  edifying information  in these websites.

Another link I searched here is Blended learning.Here is the link for it:

 During my project work I stated creating kid-blogs for my students, I made them to create their profiles by uploading their photos and shown a video of a story "The Greatest Treasure Hunt"
and asked them post the summary of the story to their blogs.

I recorded some of my students presentations i.e speaking activities using my laptop webcam and posted to their blog to maintain online record of their performance,here I used the tool Drop-Box to upload videos.



Project Report:I am going to  finish  first draft of  my project report by the end of this week.

Thank you Donna and all for helping and encouraging me to complete my project.

Cheers,

Vinay
