Week 5
Guest Speaker:
Rubena St. Louis
Dear Participants,
Welcome to week 5!
We are delighted to welcome you to one more week of FUN and exploration!!
This week we will once again invite you to engage in a very practical, hands-on activity. We Webheads are like the Bees - always flying from flower to flower to collect the best nectar each flower has to offer!!!
Thus, we would like to invite you to fly to a new flower this week and create online learning materials for students of different levels.
Activities
Our activities will be built around one theme: exploration of software for creating exercises based on suggested sites, together with the creation of three online exercises (two essential, one optional)
- Start by exploring the software and try to decide which one you will be using for creating your own online exercises. You can let the group know what you think about these tools by posting in our yahoo group.
Task 1:
- Comment at least on one of our suggested readings.
Task 2:
- Create one exercise for any of these skills: reading, writing, listening, speaking, or vocabulary, each one with a different application. (Essential)
- Explore the software for creating online surveys and worksheets.
- Create an online sheet for your students. (Essential)
- Create an online survey. (Optional)
