Week 10

And this is the end! Finally we completed the course!

I am so sad :-(

I remember the first week when we started with self-introduction, created our blogs and wrote our first posts! Now we are writing our final post, final reflections! :-(

I must say that this course was really a great chance for me! Because I discovered so many things within 10 weeks - blogs, Nicenet, delicious pages, interactive powerpoint presentations, rubrics, PBL, Webquests, Learner Autonomy, Learning styles, multiple intelligences, online exercises and so on. All of them are quite new for me, so it's a great opportunity for me to learn and try to apply them in my classes. As I mentioned in my final project, I am planning to use blogs, Nicenet, delicious pages, PBL for improving the writing skills of my students. Of course I will benefit from other tools such as Webquests, Interactive PPP. We need more time to explore and create the new ones for next semester.

Every week the course offered a number of websites/articles that provided us with useful information and instructions. I have saved all of them to my delicious page which I liked veryyyyy much!

And what about my colleagues, I witnessed warm atmosphere and collaboration among my classmates,  they were so active, energetic and hard-working, I benefited from their experience through this course! I wish them good luck and a lot of success in their teaching career!

And I want to mention the most important person of this course - Mrs. Donna Shaw! I don't know how to show my gratitude for all she has done for us, especially for me. Without her help, her instructions, her directions I couldn't complete the given tasks. :-)

Thank you so much, my dear instructor for everything! 

So, finally, I want to say one more, I am really happy to have participated in such educative course.

I am grateful to the staff of the University of Oregon for providing such opportunities for us!!!

May Allah bless all of you!!!

Sincerely
