Week 1 - Reflecting

My experience about my first week studying BTS-IW (Building Teacher Skills - Interactive Web).

This week was very excited and very enriching week, because I had the opportunity to put working my mind in how the technology can help students in their learning process.

It was very interesting the task, lectures and discussions that we had this week about:



  • Ground rules for discussions





  • Online discussions - comparing rubrics





  • Needs analysis survey - through email link





  • Blogs Blogger how-to





  • Blogging for ELT http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/think/articles/blogging-elt





  • Guidelines for Discussion and Rubrics - download and print this document to use as a reference whan you post on Nicenet.




  • ABOUT THE BLOG!!!

    When our coordinator asked us to create a blog where we can share our experience week by week, thought it was a GREAT IDEA!!!

    I have created other blogs before (as a jobbie), but this time was special and different experience, this time, I thougth in the functionallity and I thougth in use it in the medium or long term, thats why it was a bigger challenge.

    I wanted to do something special, so I decided to involve some friends in my first blog post!!!

    I asked them (in facebook), share with me one English word that they like it and I created a collage with the results!!! I Titled "WHAT THE PEOPLE THINK WHEN THEY THINK IN ENGLISH". Thank you so much all my friends!!!!! I hope you enjoy it!!!!!

    Post-script: You will find the English word and then the nickname of the thinker...

    1. Hi Diana, what a great idea! I love the concept! And I'm so curious about what JPMunoz means when s/he say - procrastinate!

      Very creative.

    2. Hi Janine!!! thank you so much!!!!! well I know this word as: Postpone concept, I understand is using when some is postpone something because is not a pleasure to do it... the people do not say not, but do not do it... So this word is using to push the people to do it, i.e. "please stop to procrastinate the issue..."

      I hope have been clear... :(
