I must say that I have learnt quite a number of things in the brief period of this course.<br />
I have learnt how to use news tools from Microsoft Word and Powerpoint. What's more, I have learnt how to deliver a Power Point presentation in only 3 minutes!<br />
In adition to that, I now know how to differntiate between a serious and reliable web site from one which is untrustworthy. This, I consider, is vital when Googling for information to use in our classes.<br />
<br />
This subject has helped me realised that no matter how much you think you know about something, there's always something new, there is always a catch. <br />
I believe this subject is essential for any teacher. If you take into account that our students were born already immersed in a techy World, teachers need to keep up with them and become an active member of the technological World.<br />
As American writer Stewart Brand once said, “Once a new technology rolls over you, if you're not part of the steamroller, you're part of the road.”<br />

I worked with Vanesa and, in my humble opinion, we made quite a great team. We chose an article published in the NEA webpage on Classroom Management. It is a really interesting article.<br />Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did!<br /> *</span><span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></span><br />

We had a chat session :)<br />
Even though it was only an hour chat, I can say that it was very useful to learn new things in a fun and interactive way.<br />
I learnt new chat jargon. Even though I was already familiar with some of the acronyms, I was able to pick up more and put into practice the ones I already knew.<br />
What's more, the chat session gave me the opportunity to reflect upon the benefits of chatting and how it is possible to implement this wonderful tool in teaching. <br />
I also got to know the website
<a href="http://www.simplemeet.me/#">http://www.simplemeet.me/#</a> which enables you to chat with other people without having to worry about instaling any programme in your computer :)<br />
I had a great time in the chat session<br />
