Week 3 Blog

Hello everyone!

I hope you all are fine and in high spirits. Our third week was really wonderful as I could see variety of tasks were involved. Since English Language has become an international language, from all four basic skills of ELT, currently Oral or speaking skills occupy unique position.
No one is considered successful in any profession who does not have good interpersonal skills and English play vital role in the context.

This week we made our account on www.delicious.com
which was really a great fun as we can see all our favourite pages any where online. Therefore, its undoubtedly a great help for language teachers who explore different websites in  a day but they can not recall not even a single. But now they cac access them all webiste which they visited simply through one click.

Secondly in this week, we also studied the projects of different people and I gave my comments about one of the projects which was about teaching grammar and communication skills.

I also explored vaious websites which offer online courses and materials to improve oral skills.
This week was full of activites and I am glad to read  and participate in the dicussion about all topics.

Regards,

Muhammad Tariq

Week 2 Blog

hello everyone!

Second week was really hilarious as it was fun to take part in wonderful activities.  ABCD learing objectives  were really new for me, although I was ware of this fact that how important are these things in an ELT classroom. Secondly searching websites and exploring the new horizons was really a great learning experience. I believe that the way we are sharing knowledge and personal experiences about real ELT situations, make us perfect ELT teaching community.
This is first time I am the part of an online course  and I can safely say it  I am enjoying every bit of it.
Best of luck to all participants.

REFLECTIVE BLOG


Good morning everyone!

 I hope you all will be fine and doing well.  English Language Teaching is a challenging task, where I believe that everyday is a new day -  not only for students rather for teachers as well. Teachers have to prepare interesting activites and lessons to impart their knowledge and skills of ELT. In this modern age, ELT has become highly scientific and  challenging, therefore  I believe  this course will definitely enable us to imrpove our English Language skills.
As far as the use of technology is concerned, undoubtedly no one can deny this fact that technology has given a new a trend and spirit to  ELT. Without the use of technology, it will be really hard to interact with students.

I am sure that its a golden opportunity for all of us to learn and share our experiences through such wonderful forum where distances do not matter and we all are working as a one family unit. It is important for us to share our views and experiences about the use of technology in the class or for our own academic purposes. I am really eager to learn every bit of this course so I could meet the expectations of my students. I would like to request that kindly do share the official website of your respective institutions so all of us may get a chance to know one another in a better way.

Wish you best of luck for the next week's assignments.
