What a hectic week!
Do the readings, fulfill the tasks, comments e-friends' opinion and share my weekly experience (what I a m doing right now) in this blog or do my office things have driven me to be 'superman' this week. It's a great week after all.
What a 'wonderful' coincidence that everything is deadline. I feel great actually, even I have to keep everything up at the same time. It is said "The more we have works and can meet all things at defined time, The more we learn time management better. Hope so!
This week I have to cope with Technology Enhanced Lesson Plan. What I had in my mind while reading this task was thinking about making plans for my class and using new ways of teaching in sharing the knowledge to students.
Technology becomes very important today and we have an obligation to be able to participate in this New Era. Technology can help us in developing and improving the way we learn and share with students.
In my case, I'll be co-lecturer for Essay Writing 1 Class. so I and my partner will work as a team to conduct a technology supported writing class. My partner will share the theories to students and I'll handle the technology used for supporting this class. We designed a Technology Enhanced Lesson Class that we will use in coming semester, create a class blog as a media for monitoring and doing the students works, progress and evaluation.
What technology does today to our world, hopefully can help us also in improving our ways of teaching and students; ways of learning.
