Reflections





It's almost the end of the semester. Frankly speaking, my battery is really running low now, especially with the final assignments for the various modules due and pupils' exams just round the corner. Nevertheless, I'm glad I have signed up for MAE 812. I.T. has never been my forte. In fact, there would be times when I dislike I.T. and wondered why must I.T. be created. However, this module really gave me an insight as to how ICT can be used to teach and learn a language. My perspective of the use of I.T. has been changed. I no longer use I.T. simply to 'clock' in the required number of teaching/learning hours online. Nowadays, when I want to have an ICT language lesson, I'll think twice about whether i have made informed use of ICT or I have merely used ICT for the convenience of Internet websites.

I have attached a powerpoint presentation of my reflections, personal goals and collegial goals. I'll definitely try out more ICT based language lessons after the June holidays.
