Week 10

Last week of the course, strange feeling.... Finally time to relax with the end of the school as well, but then, although I have learned so much with this course, it leaves me motivativated to continue learning!

I have been so lucky to have applied to this course and get into this program. I was expecting it to be good, but it exceeded my expectations! So many plans, such great new methods, ideas, motivation, I already feel ready to get started with the new school year!

Jodie, I am really glad to have worked with you. I learned so much from you. You took me back to the feeling of being a student and sometimes feel the "nervousness" of  not understanding something clearly, but your feedback was always on time and understanding. You have a brilliant way to express yourself through writting, because you always sound calm, motivational, warm, and with a great coaching technique to guide us the right way.

I got not much left but to say thank you. Thanks to the University of Oregon and the American Embassy for this great opportunity. Thanks to my classmates for their ideas and motivation. Thanks to my project partner Svetlana for helping me out on my project. Thanks to Celeste for making me analyze situations in a better way. Thanks to Jodi for always been there and taught us in such simple yet meaningful manner. Thank you all!  :)

Best wishes for the next comming year!

Week 9

A great sense of achievement! Finally projects done, but most of all, a great feeling to have pretty much completed this course which has been all in all a great source of knowledge! It has been one of the most practical courses I have taken, and so useful for my day to day job.

I can't wait now to put into action my project nest year. Now I have time to really polish all those ideas, start with my interactive Power Point slides, improve my webquest, make all the needed rubrics, etc. Since my students are officially on holidays now, it is time to get this prepared.

It will certainly feel strange now that my students are gone and the course is pretty much finished. Time to relax, but also to plan ahead.

Good luck everyone!
