I want to tell you my friends the develop of my project. Well I began yesterday that I plan with my class the time for each step.
Tuesday 17: I divide the class in groups as I have 41 students I have 8 groups the fice students each one and 1 the six students.
Wednesday 18 and Thursday 19: All the group including me we will develope the content, the idea is to develop first the cognitive part, using the web quest that I send yesterday to each leader, durong this two weeks I'm going to apply the power points made during the week 6, and the touchstone book, because it's a unit in my book for this level.
Friday 20: The students are going to work in groups preparing their own material, in this part the students will prapare interactive power points with the knowledge learned in the previous days.
Monday 23: This day the students will write the essay in which they have to tell the experience that they had preparing the interactive power point and what they learned , and they will relate about the film that that they have to do, the idea to make a film it is because they have to apply all they learned in real situations, so they are going to choose a place in Quito an make a roleplay simulating that they are asking and givivng directions.
In order to show our beautiful Ecuador each group choose a touristic place.
Tuesday 24: They post in a blog the essay and the interactive power points.
Wednesday 25: They comment their jobs in the blog.
Thusrday 26: All the groups are going to go to different places to make the film.
Friday 27: Holiday in ecuador but the groups have to edit the videos.
Monday 28: Evaluate the project.
I'm to excited for this project and the students are motivated so please wish me luck.............

Hi Nory,
ReplyDeleteThe autonomous language learner takes responsibility for the totality of their learning situation. Students do this by determining their own objectives, defining the contents to be learned and the progression of the course, selecting methods and techniques to be used, monitoring this procedure, and evaluating what they have acquired. Objectives are specific to the learner, and the learner's communicative needs determine the verbal elements chosen.
Good luck with your project

Hi Nory,
ReplyDeleteYou´re doing a great job. The plan for you to go on with your project is so well organized. Congratulations!
The hardware and software for technical instruction George Washington University has, is just amazing. I wish you could have such technology at hand.
Anyway, since the whole world is in the process of change, even by using the basic tools we have now, we could get immersed in the technological world which is the real world of the future.
We have already started, don´t you think so?
I wish you the best with your project. Go ahead Nory. :) :) :)
Warm regards,
Dolores

Hello Nori:
ReplyDeleteIt is great to see how much into your project you are. To be honest, I’m feeling a bit worried about mine, however, I guess anxiety is a normal feeling when you need to have something done and have so many other things to do as well. But, It seems like you have everything under control even though your project is ambitious. Good for you!!
I guess your students are happy to collaborate in it and of course, they will learn a lot from it. And this is exactly the point, to do something fruitful for them. I’m sure you will get all of your goals. Keep on doing your fantastic work. Good luck with your project

It is an intersting thing to make your students make the interview asking directions an practice real English . The new web techinques you have been applying are good, Web quest, interactive power point and blogs. This is the way the students also are taking advantage of our web course we are doing these weeks.
