Week 7 Autonomy

Week seven is over and gradually we are coming towards the close of our course.This week after reading about learners' autonomy was thought provoking as it suggested democratic learning environment.Teachers need to learn how to share their authority and delegate some of the powers to the students so that they own their learning process in this connection one computer classroom is an apt idea as it helps to organize the lesson contents and channelize the learning time...innovation and patience can make us better teachers and we can inspire our learners to be better learners.

Week 6 :JUST A BEGINNER

In this week the main task was how to handle large class with interactive power point presentation.Rightly remarked by Naqib that we do get chance to use power point but not in interactive way.After being a part of this course for a couple of weeks i feel that my job can e a lot fun and easier if i know how to handle my laptop and internet in a smarter way.Before this honestly speaking i did not hear about interactive presentation since i am exposed to the traditional method of watch and read style.  By using interactive presentation and PBL style language class will be more like an entertainment class,where students will  feel relax and motivated to perform better than the other.After going through the presentation of my course mates and the discussion on nice net i learned many new ways in which technology can be used to bring life to the otherwise dead class of literature and language.

week 5 learning is discovering

This has been a nice week as i learned about PBL, rubrics and Rubistar.com and created my own rubrics and last but not the least web-quests. As i started the week i was a bit hesitant when i read Robert's mail but after going through the readings and the allied web links my hesitation converted into enthusiasm and i learned one thing that everything is present around me in the air,i just need to channelize my energies to have best outcomes.I enjoyed the web-quests and found them interesting for students of every group and age. It is a very helpful tool in making students responsible for their own learning.Secondly the rubrics will help them in setting their milestones and achieving them.

After these five weeks i am really thankful to all those who gave me the opportunity to be a part of this course.
