Week 10

I am very honest, in spite of some difficulties that I have faced with technology I feel satisfied that I have learned a lot with this new techniques and I am going to apply them with my students.  On the other hand, I feel sadbecause we have finished our course and I am going to miss my colleagues, their comments, their experiences why not their technological problems and their technological achievements in and out the classroom, and how some of us have increased our knowledge about the ABCD objective, the blog creation, interactive power point, and so on.
I consider that this kind of courses are useful for teachers and students since we learned how to use technological tools such as: web skills and strategies, advices, and suggestions how to enhance and encourage students to learn English. Additionally, I think I have the base of technological knowledge and it is a good beginning to start working on it so we can see how the students enjoy this kind of presentation and feel very motivated with them. Finally, I think students will manage technologyresources easier and that will become part of their daily activities in their studies. Thanks a lot all of you my colleagues and Dona.

Week 9

Multiple Intelligences are an important guide, because they let us to know the students learning styles. As teachers we can realize which is the best way of teaching to take into account students learning styles. We can prepare our classes  by using kinds of activities we just have to see the possibilities are and then decide which particular pathways  interest students the most . As for technology, this is an extraordinary tool, especially for Visual, Auditory and kinesthetic students, clarifying of course that we can search for different activities related to it for students having different intelligence learning styles. Thus, They will  also have fun learning by using technology.

Multiple Intelligences and Technology have done the best combination to enhance students to obtain the best knowledge from them. In this way they will solve their problems easier and we will cooperate and guide that students become autonomous learners. 

Students have worked the last two weeks for their oral presentation through interactive power point , so that Students created this nice and interesting interactive power point tool. and I want to show you an example of students` presentation.
