Hello Jodi & Sheire and everyone,
I am writing these words and I am
mesmerized, paralyzed and breathless because this course is going to end. I
love the moment I communicate with everyone in this course. I love the moment I
understand and learn from everyone. This week is the 9th and I
collect a lot of information and learn the power of thinking and discussion.
Allow me dear to start speaking about this golden, super, bright and outstanding
course. We started with getting to know each other and then introduced to the
ground rules for the discussion. Which are the basic and main strategies that
we all follow during the course. I learnt to create my own blog and I tried my
best to learn more about the blog and its features. I got the idea of writing
something and commenting on my classmates work. I am obliged to be introduced
to the ABCD learning objectives. I read more about the ABCD from different
materials. I used these techniques when I did my lesson plan and I used it a lot during this course. I had
a pleasant tour and discover the most effective web search. I add to my
bookmark a lot of websites and I feel great that I have these rich websites.
Then I worked on Oral/aural skill-building websites and bookmarks with Delicious.
I read different materials about Oral and aural. The bookmarks I got familiar with
are a great help for me and my students. I moved to reading and writing
websites which gave me huge benefit about the techniques of reading and
writing. I spent some times searching some websites and read, analyze, and summarize
some ideas about reading and writing. Then I learn more about lesson plans
using technology and tools that help in teaching. Then I move to Webquests,
Rubrics and PBL. I struggle in making my own Webquest but finally I ended up
with my successful webquest. I read a lot of materials about PBL which needs
much time concentrating on the materials given because there was a huge benefit.
I learn about large classes and interactive powerpoint. These two points are
very interesting to me and I learn a lot in term of application. A big number
of websites give a lot of information about the large classes and the
interactive powerpoint. Then I was introduced to Learner autonomy and the one-computer
classroom and which another excellent subject. I spent a wonderful time
discussing, forming, and preparing the project. I experience the best practices
in the webinar I learn about its features. I tried my best to apply what I learnt in my classes at the institutes and I will do my best to use the materials, websites and ideas soon. I will try my best to go through the materials again and learn more and discover other beneficial ideas. I am very happy that I communicate
with the course participants during the course. I felt great when I share the discussion
through the nicenet. I add a lot to my experience and my filed of teaching. I
apply till now most of the technological tools that I learn from this course. I am proud that I attend this course and I met
the great instructors, the bright guests and the wonderful participants.
Thank you very much indeed for your time.

Dear Salam,
ReplyDeleteI think all the posts I am going to read today and tomorrow will be like yours - with the touch of sadness about the upcoming closure of this terrific course.
I share your feelings and your appreciation of everything what has been done for us and to us (because, I suppose, we all changed in the process of doing it), the superb skills we've learned and the enormous collection of the resources I have compiled.
I am going to write about it in my blog, but here today let me express my appreciation of your generous contribution, your kind support and the irreproachably chivalrous attitude to all the participants. It has been a real pleasure to get to know you and to learn from you. I hope we will stay in touch and will keep sharing, cooperating and helping each other.
My kindest regards,
Val, Belarus

Dear Salam,
ReplyDeleteThis is a great recap on what we have learnt for the duration of this course. The sweet and bitterness experience will be etched in my memory. We have had opportunities to read mountains of information and perform real life ICT based activities for our lessons in order to increase our knowledge to what is suitable to be adapted to our class.
All the valuable experience will never be forgotten. Thanks for being a part of this journey.

I think you have read the minds of all of us,feeling the sadness with near-end of this course.You are also right taking us through this re tale of the journey and though we reach the end but I think i'll go and re-read and reconsider what we have gone through again and again and I believe I'll discover that looking for the second time different ideas will emerge.I'm glad to have met you here and hope to continue exchange ideas and experience.
ReplyDeleteHello Nur,

Hi Salam again,
ReplyDeleteI remember that at the beginning of the course you asked about Skype sessions. What if we arrange one to celebrate the end of the course?
Maybe not on the ANVILL platform, since not everybody managed to get through to it, but just on Skype? Or else where?
Enjoy the rest of Sunday,
Val
Hello Val,
DeleteIt is my pleasure to have a chat with you! Can we do it sometime next week. We can arrange time and talk. Could we use the Yahoo messenger, please? Wish you all the best.
Thank you

Hello Salam and all who posted touching words,
ReplyDeleteI guess we have to admit that “All good things come to an end”. This week’s posts will be indeed similar expressing sadness and gratification at the same time. Sadness because this wonderful course will reach to its end and fulfillment due to all the accomplishments we have done!
But then again, this wonderful worldwide connection shouldn’t end! We can stay in touch through the group created by Hassan on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/groups/266229906788212/

Hi Brother Salam
DeleteReally, we are very close to an end; all the sweetest moments will be our past very soon. The fusion of great teachers and ideas, especially on nicenet, will no more available. However, we made a family and hopefully this will remain through our blogs.
