Learning journey September 2006- September 2007

Gabriela Sellart AACI TEACHERS’ DAY 14-09-07

How it started

.

Claudia Ceraso’s talk

thought provoking

Well, my ideas were not so neat and tidy.

the B button

WRITE ON LITERATURE I wondered: • an audience beyond the class limits?! • feedback from real readers?!

GLOSSARIES I wondered: • set my information free?! • my students making decisions related to their learning?!

TAKE IT FURTHER I wondered: • a non-finished product used as a teaching tool?! • teaching and learning at the same time?!

Just a picture of my mind

My tHouGhtS urged for order.

ANDAMIADA I wondered: • what language? • anybody interested in reading my thoughts?! • getting into global conversations?!

DISCOVERIES ABOUT THE TOOL • static website vs. dynamic website ABOUT MY STUDENTS • imaginary audience vs. real audience • one reader vs. infinite readers • language feedback vs. conversational feedback • spoon-fed students vs. autonomous learners ABOUT ME • peer to peer sharing vs. open sharing • teaching vs learning • reading experts vs. reading lifelong learners • occasional face-to-face dialogue vs. global conversations

I wanted to invite my students to have a blogging experience.

TAKING IT FURTHER I wonder about: • • • • • • • • •

rules assignments assessment comments privacy identity safety collaboration autonomy??????????????
