Week 8

       I think that the last class was one of the most useful and important because our teacher told us what a lesson plan exactly is. She showed us a power point presentation which explained what the main objective to use a lesson plan is, so I could be able to understand in a clear way that a lesson plan is a very useful document that allows us to organize every single class using different activities. Therefore, I can say that it is really important and useful for all us because we are going to put in practice everything what we learned in class when we must to give classes in any school next semester. I am sure that all these things will help us to do a good job, so we will be able to manage any class without complication. Also, our teacher gave us some assignments that help us to learn and identify how we can make a good lesson plan. As for example: we looked for information about lesson plans to teach writing on internet. It was a little complicated because there are some different ways to do that, but it is necessary to keep in mind that our teacher provided us a rubric that can be used to recognize a good lesson plan.

Week 7

       This week I learned something very useful about how to make a good power point presentation. First at all, our teacher gave us some tips that we should keep in mind when we want to make it. One of them is that we never must write too many words because it can cause confusion between the audiences, however, it is acceptable to write only key words. Also, the use of too many effects in a presentation is not a good idea, because it can make our presentations unprofessional. Also, the use of pictures in a power point presentation is an excellent way to catch students` attention, but it is recommendable to put pictures that are related with the topic we are explaining because our audience can be able to assimilate the information easier, so they will be able to catch the main idea easily. As a conclusion, we as future professionals have the obligation to apply everything what we learned in class in order to make a positive change in Education otherwise, it could be considered a waste of time for all us and our teacher and that is not the main point to do that.

Week 6

     Last class I could learn a very interesting exposition that was presented by our teachers. They provided us some information related with the use of certain web pages that can be very useful to develop any kind of activities into the classroom, so we will be able to get students` attention easier than before even we can be able to find some activities to teachers about how to use them in order to improve as professionals, also we can find some tips to create or design a lesson plan using different kind of activities that make the job easier. Besides, we could realize that the use of technology is considered an important tool in Education, because it allows us to share our information with others by using different social web pages. As a conclusion, the use of technology nowadays can be considered an important aspect that we should keep in mind as future professionals in order to make the difference just at the moment to share our knowledge with our students.

Week 5

Last class I learned something related with UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).It tells us that this organization is trying to help people who do not have the chance to access to a good education. Also, they are working through ICT (Information and Communication Technology) that tries to expand the help to other places where the level of Education is bad. Besides, it tries to implement the use of technology in different places in order to share knowledge. However, this can be considered a real challenge because teachers should be prepared to use the ICT and they should be able to change the manner to teach in the learning process in an interactive way. Therefore, Teachers could be able to get students` attention that can help them to confront new challenges during this process. As a conclusion, we as future teachers should think about the positive benefits that the use of technology can give us to develop a new way to teach. Therefore, we have the chance to learn new things that permit us to become a good professional and we will be able to share our knowledge with our students.

Week 4

      During that week I could learn a very interesting class related with the use of an innovative web side that allows us to organize all kind of web pages that we want. The first thing that we need to do is to go to w.w.w.diigo.com and we must create an account in DIIGO and after that we must follow the instructions to get our account. Once we have created our one we learned how to add bookmarks which allows us to look for web pages on internet and after we can add them in our account, but in order to facilitate the job of finding them in a fast way, we need to create categories. But , our teachers told us that we need to work with “Navegador”, because it allows us to use the option “Favoritos”.However, we need to keep in mind that the web pages we are going to  upload  to our account should be analyzed according what we learned  about  the way to evaluate them. Finally, I think that the use of this innovative tool can help me to keep important and useful information that can be used in the future to share knowledge with others, because this is the only way to learn new things.
