Week 3 Reflections


Here is my reflection for week 3

Delicious: It is amazing how many of us didn’t know about this website. Thanks to our instructors who shared it with us. Usually I used internet explorer in which I used to bookmark in the favorites section divided into “stacks” as they are called in Delicious. The best part of exploring this website is that we can access it from any computer through username and password. This will be major advantage for me to start using it as I lost once all the data on my computer due to virus. If such thing happens to me again, I would be always thankful to Jodi and Sherie for introducing us delicious!

Fantastic information I got this week is the list of the best sites to practice English. I spent quite a lot of time to select among them what might be suitable for my students.  After selecting few, I believe all the links mentioned in this blog are important and could be used in a way or another. But I always say to my peer teachers that every day we will encounter new websites and new software to teach through them, but the most important factor is to use ICT( Information and communication Technology) in teaching properly and adequately and not for the sake of using technology because it won’t lead to successful results.

  1. Dear Sylvia,

    I believe you've missed an important feature of Delicious: the possibility to access our colleagues' shared bookmarks. This really top it off!

    Have a nice start with Week 4.

    Best,
