Secondlife

. 1. Write about your likes and dislikes When I first listened to what the teacher was talking about, It was really fun. I can listen carefully what the teacher was telling and I can understand it. I liked it. I don't have to go to class. I can listen in indivisual place. But We can communicate with each other by saying, listening, typing and so on. 2. How could you use it for your teaching If I can't make a class on time or If students seem to be bored, I can use it for a new way of teaching. Maybe students might really like it. and It has their own character, so students can feel the same as real world. I will use presentation the same as usual. It will be very effective way to teach something. What are the advantages and disadvantages An advantage that I can have is motivating students to do a new things. and it also affects students that they feel they try to learn newthings in a new way. Students can participate in class. While they logon to the Internet, they can say to themselves that they are going to have a class. So they can prepare their mind to listen carfully what they are learing about. A disadvantages are like if stdents have no headset or equipment to participate that can be a problem. they should find some places to join and if it doens't work, they would be frustrated. and If there is a large noise (computer sound ) while they are listening to class, they can't get the point what the teacher wants. these can be the problems.

After listening Video-conferencing

* Like/Dislike
What is the best part that I like was I can listen the class in another place.
and it was a lot fun to listen than in class. Even though my headphone didn't work, I could see my screen and listen what proffesor had said.
What I didn't like is that I don't have any tools to connect. So I need to go to Internet cafe but still they don't have a camera and microphone didn't work. That is the worst thing to feel I join the class.

*Advantage/Disadvantage
As I said before, people can use this anywhere if they can sit in front of computers. If they have a computer with camera and headset, they can use it everywhere even all over the world.
But it can be sounded weird sometimes and it couldn't be working. that is the problem when we use this.

*How to use this for teaching.
It can include people in the same place to see powerpoint. So when the teacher wants to teach more and if they can't be in class. They can use this to be supplement for their class.

Things to consider

*What is an authoring tool?
An authoring tool is an installable program that allows you to create materials in electronic format which can then be distributed on a CD-ROM, DVD, USB pen drive, floppy disc or via a web page to your learners.
Authoring tools usually feature a simple design interface, with drag-and - drop elements allowing you to add pictures, sounds and video material to the screen, along with navigational authoring tools have complex programming languages allowing you to control what happens in greater detail.

* If you wanted to make a simple exercise for your students, what would you do and how would you do it?
when they have to make a simple exercise, they can use authoring tool. Let them make a J Quiz  using Hot Potatoes. also we encourage students develop a wide range of skills from listening to debating, agreeing, and disagreeing and making points and supporting them. We can see some examples of typical interactive stories
(reading mazes)
They can use Quandary as well.

Things to consider

*How to set up simple blog, wiki, and podcast projects with learners.
-  There are some ways to set up a blog
blogger, wordpress, Ezblogworld, Bahraich Blogs, Getablog and so on.

-  How to start using a wiki
step1 Preparation before lesson
step2 (In)famous people : descriptions
step3 (In)famous people : corrections
setting up a wiki
use these sites : Pdwiki, MediaWiki, Wikihost


*Podcast project
podcasts can consist of a series of short audio files, lasting from 10-20seconds to several minutes, made by individual learners, or of longer podcasts, made by small groups.
step1 Setting up a podcast page
step2 Creating learner podcasts
step3 Listening to learner podcasts
step4 Follow up

*difference between wike and blog
- blog
The most common type of blog is kept by one person, who will regularly post comments, thoughts, analyses, experiences of daily life, interesting links, jokes or any other form of content , to a web page. Blogs may consist of written text only, or they may include pictures or photos. even audio and video.
- wiki
wiki is viewed by readers outside the classroom, will be available on the Internet for public security
By giving the wiki a password, only those who know the password can edit it, which gives your wiki some measure of security, but still it to be accessed and read on the Internet.

Reflection paper

What I have learned is that I can know better about using Internet by searching for a lot of things. I could link the site to my blogs and documents.

I could know that there are people who is afraid of using Internet and how to overcome their problem.

My strength is that I am interested in learning English and speaking English. But My weakness is that I am very poor at learning things about computers.

So It was weird for me to mix English and computers. First time I took a class, I thought that It was easy to find some information that the professor gave me. But Time goes by, It was getting difficult to write what I searched in the Internet.

Finally I lost my control to do homework and had a hard time doing the homework. But as I told you before, I really like to learn English and enjoy it. That's why I could think one more time.

In the end I had an more interest about my class. I could enjoy to learn it.

Professor James taught me kind and sincerely so that I could understand more about the content that I had to digest. I really like my class.

Things to consider(2)

* Examine how the Internet can act as a springboard for authentic, relevant simulation work and as the source of materials which promote collaborative learning, communication, knowledge sharing and higer-level thinking skills.

<Internet-based simulations>

Internet based simulations bring real-life contexts to the classroom, helping our learners to deal with situations that they may come across during foreign travel or in encounters with other seakers of English. the more traditional approach has teachers cutting up prepared role-cards in order to simulate these contexts. The Internet largely does away with this approach, giving learners access to authentic websites that provide stimulating and work particularly well in the field of business English, where the language learning is very task-or goal-oriented, but they also work well with general English learners who may have less clearly defined reasons for using English
