Hi everyone!

We have reached the final week of our course and I am feeling a little sad. I got used to doing weekly tasks and I am sure I am going to miss them.

What I have learned so far in this course? I was introduced to many interesting and useful web tools, and I will use some of them in my teaching.

I like a lot Prezi presentations, they are very dynamic and are not so linear like PPts.
I also like WebQuest. The lessons obviously need some time preparing, but I think children will benefit from it.
 RubiStar is also great. Making rubrics with this tool is so easy, I am sure it will be of great help for me in the future.
Delicious is also useful, instead of remembering all the passwords for different pages, you can only remember one - that of delicious.

There are also many different sites that have already prepared lessons. Some of them are yet to be explored in more details. I have left that for the future time when there will not be weekly tasks to do.


To conclude, I am glad and grateful for the knowledge I gained and hope that the future participants will know how to make the best of the course.

Greetings,

Ivana

I have another IMPORTANT thing to announce: We have our first class baby!

He is a beautiful baby boy, named Lovre and he is already adored by his mummy!

Here is his picture:



Hi everyone!

Here is a short reflection  I have on this week's topic. I was familiar with the multiple intelligence concept before, but what was new to me from this week was Felder's classification of learning styles.
I was surprised to find out how I can relate to some of his types. Anyway, what I liked the most is the statement that everybody is sometimes both types from any classification. I guess it depends on the situation...

I also took a quiz on what type of learner I am, and I wasn't surprised with the results. So here they are:
