Week 6: part 2

During all the course, we have been concerned mostly with our students in our classrooms. However, one of the objectives of the course is to have the participants "act as train-the-trainers models". So that's something I have in mind and it's why I am trying to master as much as I can everything taught in the course. It's not easy but I have to. How will I act this way?

First I know that I am not good at computers. The first thing I have to do is to practice computers more and ask questions."Learning starts with asking questions", a writer said. At the university, there is a lab attended by twenty students at a time. I will explain the methods I learn here to the lab teacher. We will discuss them and we will set up a program for my class of forty students: e-mail, sharing of sites for the different skills; listening, speaking, reading, writing, vocabulary, grammar, and culture.

Since the 12 th of January, classes do not function normally. I have to see Mr. Raymour, the computer teacher, before I decide to use the computer-lab.

The course, a large experience to share with others, but I'd like to master all its elements.Practice will make me good, if not perfect.

  1. Dear Roland,

    Although if I look at the map I seem far away from where you are, everything you say seems so realistic to me. You are a reflective person, like me, and this is sometimes making it wonderful for you (because you see things differently) and sometimes difficult (because you can't stop looking for answers and reasons why).

    I am amazed at your enthusiasm to learn. I hope that you will manage to organize all the facilities and that you will get the necessary support for carrying out your activities. If determination that you have is contagious - and it usually is - then your students will surely enjoy doing it!

    Your piece of wisdom is also making it easier for me to overcome doubts taht have troubled me today.

    Good luck and best regards,

    Andreja
