Week 2

Search engines and ABCD model of writing objectives


I should say that this week's tasks were quite challenging. There were many things I have done for the first time. I never knew there are so many searching sites and that they are even broken into different categories. I have been using Google all the time and I didn't even know that if I type the information I need to find in a bit different way in the searching bar, I can get completely different results of my search. 

Getting to know about the ABCD model of writing objectives was very interesting for me. The model gives us a chance to write objectives more clearly, concentrating more on our students' needs and outcomes we want to achieve. I am sure I will be using it while preparing for the lessons. 

It was very exciting to write about the first step of our final project. I was so thrilled when I was writing my first blog last week that the idea of creating my class's blog was the first thing that came to my mind when I thought about the final project. I am looking forward to tomorrow when I tell my students about the task we are going to do. I hope they will be as excited as I am and enjoy creating and particiapting in our class blog.

Looking forward to the beginning of week 3. I am sure it will be as fruitful as this one.
