Week 8: More and more online resource should result on much better learning process

No reading this week does not mean less knowledge and resource. Experimenting with the online resource such as toolsforeducators.com, wizard.4teachers.org,  easytestmaker.com could be much more productive and creative experience. Creating test, games, worksheet, making poster, crossword puzzles, board game and so on are the very real and creative experience for me as a teacher. These resources are not only for teachers since the students can also enjoy the experience of creating things like the games. I plan to not only use the tools for teaching my students but also let the students to create their own learning materials.

Another golden chance I had this week is the ANVILL. I can say that this website make the concept of language lab as a building with four walls is totally challengeable. The website designed by Oregon University Language Center has been available for global users for a better oral and aural learning experience. ANVILL has the characteristics of anvil that can be used to shape the listening and speaking skills through the voiceboard. It may also enhance learner autonomy, creativity, and confidence to speak up.

I also learned a lot about collaborative learning by working a lot with my friend Sonia Low from Phillipines and Juan Carlos from Ecuador for my project plan. They shared valuable feedbacks and comments that will help develop my teaching plan by using the technology in the future.

Finally, I successfully made my own google site that can be further developed for my future courses. I am happy to share my site on https://sites.google.com/site/englishclasswithherman/ and https://sites.google.com/site/classwithmrherman/ for anybody who wants to have medium to enhance their learning process.

Enjoy all these tools while I am enjoying my very own ....
