It was not that hard. However, being the first time I create a blog it was not such easy.
It's just a matter of patience and perservance. Someone said, "The race is not always to the swift, but to those who keep on running." and i did!.
What I did!
Just simple. Folowing the instructions on the course website. I created and account using my personal e-mail in www.blogger.com.
I didn't know it was part of Google Company, and I am not a Google client; nonetheless, it is great to know that I won't pay a penny for this. Google has its own money comming from publicity.
Once I got registered to the site, I had to create my blog. It had to be a Self Reflecting Blog for the course "Building Teacher Skills Through the Interactive Web."
I just had to clic on some icons that are very clear about its purpose-design.
I started writing this and voilà. Just clic on Publish!
What I learnt?
During the process I learnt that in Blogger.com I can create more than one blogs with the same e-mail account. I am really excited about it.
How I can aply it to my classes?
Being able to create more than one Blog with the same account, I am going to create personalized material for promoting discussion among my students. I can publish extra explanations for certain class topics. I can keep my class active in a funny way.
Wow! Such ideas come to my mind. There are so many things I can do for the benefit of my students and my own teaching performance.
This is just the beginning. We will keep this thing running and let's see what's comming on.
Very nice definition of yourself. Really I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteHello Dalton
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so impressive and motivating that I have started learning the techniques and ways you have designed it as I am not much expert in this field. Your reflections are unique , innovative and forceful. I really like teaching and learning of this class.

Hi Dalton,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that both, extensive and intensive reading, are a great source for language understanding. But the problems that we have in common is how to encourage 'lazy' students to do the readings. Because in may case, great effort is sometimes not enough.
