Week Four Reflection




This week is unique because it has lots of resources and lots of information regarding teaching, curiosity, creativity and tribes. When I started week four, I was impressed by the number of resources I was introduced to. I got confused when I deal with certain websites, they need more concentration and the connection speed should be fast. I faced a problem with the Internet connection. This causes and stops me from more participation. Especially when I tried to download some vides and surfing some websites. I know you might get surprised but it’s my bad luck. The Internet went down for almost two days. I tried my best to keep up with the other participants. I missed an important event which is the twitter chat. In spite of all the difficulties I faced, I tried my best to survive. This week was special to me because I was introduced to some new websites, valuable resources and great ideas. I learned some techniques to use different applications like; Zeega, Tapestory Thinglink, Pinterest, Animoto, Perzi, Weavly, scratch, Sound Cloud, Voice Thread and Padlet. I learn a lot from the moderators and the participants by using the Google+ communication, the canvas communication and the different materials I got during the week. The Idea Cloud was a plus for me because I learn valuable information about teaching and learning. I now believe that we educators and teachers should keep applying from this fruitful week. I felt happy when I struggle using the different websites. Finally I succeeded using the different websites. Thank you moderators and thank you participants and thank you all that support education and learning. I am glad that I am a member in this course.
