Hi All,
Almost everything in this course was new to me:
NiceNet with its discussion threads, Blogging with its reflections, making learning objectives according to Pennsylvania ABCD method, bookmarking at delicious.com, Tennessee Planning for Instruction, much of what is there in CALL, creating and using rubrics and alternative assessment tools, much of what is there on project-based learning, creating and using WebQuest pages, managing large classes and maintaining interactive lectures, maintaining learner autonomy and one/multi/computer classes, making use of NVIL, knowing more about learning styles and multiple intelligences, and most importantly useful comments and suggestions I received from course participants. Yes, all these are new to me.
All these tools are useful for me, but I will start with class blog, nicenet and webquest. I wished if the course allowed us to practice ANVILL much more.
Putting concluding words is always hard. I feel I am missing something that I can't live without it:
To colleagues, I cannot say goodbye.
To Donna I cannot even imagine it.
Neither can I to the course.
We are here to stay.
We are here to share.
We are here for ideas gone and to come.
See you again all.
Can I have everyone's email for sharing ideas in the future? Mine is: dhahias@gmail.com
Best
Garri
You right Garri,
ReplyDeleteIt hard to say good bye, especially to people with whom you have had a nice time like this. But on the other hand, I've come to notice that it's part of life.Bi it our wish or not, IT HAPPENS! What we should look for now, is a continued communication among ourselves as you mentioned. I'll personally miss everybody and I will miss your good ideas too.
My e-mail is gakirich@yahoo.fr . Please, feel free to let me hear from you later.
Regards
Richard
Hi Garri,
ReplyDeleteYou're right when you say that it is difficult to say goodbye, but in this case I hope we can keep in touch as I told you before. I think I gave you my e-mail address before well, anyway here it is again: estebanmallquiicpna@yahoo.com, it is not goodbye my friend, it's just see you...
My best wishes for you my dear friend,
Esteban mallqui.
Hi Garry,
ReplyDeleteYou have rightly mentioned that this is not the end, this is only the beginning. I have also written this in my own blog.
My email: nodira.isa@gmail.com
Hope to meet all the coursemates again virtually or in reality. The world is small!

Hi Garry,
ReplyDeleteIt is the end and the beginning too !! End of a course and a start of challenge in transferring this knowledge we had. You are absolutely right in your reflection. I hope we continue being colleagues in reality too.

Dear Garri,
ReplyDeleteIt's not only for you, even for me almost everything was new. It was good to learn something for the first time from a very methodical teacher like Donna. We all will miss the tasks, discussions, and Blogs. But let's keep in touch. My email is chitrangani24@yahoo.com
All the Best!

Dear Garri,
ReplyDeleteTrue enough, it can't be avoided to miss the things you've been used to for the past ten weeks. Somehow, if we think of the challenge posed before us, I believe our feelings would eventually become the inner drive to keep us moving.
I am most often online at Facebook as Rebecca Casas Sagot and at Yahoo Messenger. You can add me as rebeccasagot@yahoo.com.ph.
Keep in touch,
BECKY
Dear Garri,
ReplyDeleteYou are right, of course. This is the beginning, not the end. However, I must wish you good bye and the very best on your technology journey. I will miss you.
Donna
