Dear all,
How sad that we have reached the end of our webskills course. Things are going to change but one thing will stay the same my addiction to technology. I will continue going on the route that was paved for us during the course. I wish to try out all the tools we got acquainted with and make my lessons more enjoyable.
I have enjoyed all the topics we had in our course. Personally I liked learner autonomy and learning styles a lot. I could implement some of the tools in my lessons and students love it. Students are hooked to their computers and love all the things that come through the net let it be games/readings/learning.
I plan to continue my searches on the net and discover all the tools thoroughly.
Thank you for all of my peers and thank you Courtney!
Miss you all!

Week 9 Learning styles
When looking back on what I have done in the last nine weeks I had to admit that I read a lot of articles on methodology and tried out several tools provided by the internet. Searching on the internet is a great thing it becomes even more enjoyable if there is someone leading you on your way in an organized manner. This is what I got from this course: well organized and logically built up weekly assignments and tools I can use any time in my teaching. I did not have to find the articles for different fields of teaching during the course it was given to me and the only thing I had to do is read, think and try out the new methods/tools. It is even better than going to a library as here I got everything given to me and all I had to do is to use them properly (guides were also provided for me!).
This week's topic was learning styles. Even though I was familiar with learner styles and tried to think about it as well when preparing for my lessons or for my courses that I teach, this week gave me tools and showed me the way how I can support my students with different learner styles in my lesson. As a teacher I always tried to back up my approach and methods with the right tool and this course helped me a lot. I see things from a different point of view as I tried out some of the tools just the way students do and I felt the same excitement they do when trying out things for the first time. With this new experience I became more student-centered and more understandable and tolerant at the same time. I have always tried to teach in a way that it would be suitable for my students and now I gained new methods/approaches and tools for it.
I enjoyed all the reading assignments and all the tools I have tried and will continue exploring them after the course. I do not want to list all the things I had done through out these nine weeks as I did not have a favorite reading or tool I loved all of them.
