Despite my frustrating and exhausting experience at the beginning of the week, I feel tired, happy, and much more skilled. I have learnt so many new things - about Nicenet and how to use it; what a Wiki is; how to create a blog on blogger.com and read and comment other people's blogs; how to work with Google maps; what a Google account is and how to create it; how to write a program to follow Google links. I got used to the Word proofreading and automatically correcting my spelling mistakes, now it s quite challenging to take part in conferences where I have to be very careful with my posts.
Never before have I had such an active correspondence with foreigners! I am glad my inbox is filled with letters and instructions from Jodi - I read and reread her e-mails, enjoying her beautiful English!
And the last but not the least - I was not as good at Geography at the beginning of the week as I am now!
Hope I will learn still more in the weeks to follow and then share my experience with my colleagues and put it in my teaching practice.

Hi Yuliya
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you designed your website. it inspired to think about similar way.
Yuliya,
ReplyDeleteThat's plenty to learn in one short week; it is overwhelming, isn't it?!
I share with you this feeling of pride for the achievement and the anticipation for what is coming in the next 9 weeks. Knowledge is such a thrill!
I will end with a quote from A. Einstein "The only source of knowledge is experience." which I found on

I wish you the best experience in this course.
Yuliya,
ReplyDeleteI think it's exciting, too, to have such an active conversation with so many people from so many countries at the same time. It's wonderful!
Jodi
