WEEK 16

     Well, this week was also useful for me because I learnt two tools web 2.0 technologies for applying in the classroom such as; Edmodo and Nicenet. I think these are the most important tools that we can use, and also the k 12 lesson plans is important to teach English. I would like to give a brief explanation of Edmodo; this tool is a social network built for use by teachers and students for use in the classroom. Also, it provides a way for teachers and students to share their opinions, comments, links, files, and notes. In addition, this would be used for weekly discussion topics that would be relate to class. for example, every Friday my students will have a reflection type day, they can post  what they learnt about during the week,  also parents can help their sons, and at the end of the year, students can see their the progress and how much they have improved. Furthermore, the Nicenet is too similar like Edmodo because it too offers communication among class groups or for subjects. This page is reliable for us .One example for this tool is teacher can provide their students with reading materials they have to read and they will be able to participate in discussion forums is a good activity.

    In conclusion, these tools are reliable and very helpful for teacher and students. Teachers can make many activities on these pages are very fruitful in their lessons and students will gain more knowledge, it is good reinforcement in their studies.

WEEK 15

  Well in this week I learnt good things that are really useful for me. Firstly of all, my teacher gave us some important advices that we have to take into account when we will teach or give a class for example;in the School, High school and University. However, in the high school the teenagers are really complicated and teachers have to know the stages of human development in order to help students in their adolescence. In addition, in the high school the teachers every day have to do:
•    Take the attendance every day.
•    The grade book has to be organized.
•    Calling parents when students are absent.
•    Controlling homework every day.
•    Sending homework every day. Homework has to be the same  topic that teacher teaches in the class.
•    Use stamps in order to check homework’s and check class activities.
•    Oral lessons every day about the same topic of homework or previous class.
•    Frequent evaluation.
•    Tutors are in charge in guiding students. But if you are not the tutor you have to know everything about their students.

Also,  teachers have to use new activities for teaching. If we work in schools we have to have a lot of patience with children. We have to take care of them all the time and be very creative and do new things in order to have our students doing something good for their learning.
Finally, in the University the way to teach is different. If you want to work at University you have to have more knowledge. I think that be teacher is a big gift of God and of the life because the teachers can share their knowledge and help to people  during their profession.     

   

WEEK 14

      On this I reviewed  more about of technology such as; web 2.0 technologies to teach English and Mappy Friends. Firstly of all, Web 2.0 is the term given to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that is focused on the ability for people to collaborate and  share information online  . also,Web pages is  more dynamic Web that is more organized and is based on serving Web applications to users. Other improved functionality of Web 2.0 includes open communication with an emphasis on Web-based communities of users, and more open sharing of information. in addition , Web 2.0 is  based  Blogs, wikis, and Web services .Second, Mappyfriends is based on recommendations from your social network. You need your friends and their friends to have relevant results. Nowadays, it uses the most popular social network available, Facebook, as the source for your friendships.

WEEK 13

On this week I studied more about of technology. The prezy program was really useful for me because this program is innovative is like power point but is new it has many advantages for students and also for teachers and is easy to use but it has one disadvantages, when we want to use this program we need to be connected with the internet because it does not work without internet but you can download your presentation on the pen drive. However I enjoyed making my prezy presentation. Inaddition, I worked on the web 2.0 technologies because it is partof the lesson. I learnt many things about this, my teacher provided some web pages that are related with the topic and it helps to reinforment the knowledge. Due to the web 2.0 technologies is main tool for EFL students and is very important to know and also learn to  use this web sites because in the future we will use with our students.
