My name is Jenny. I am beginning my English teaching career after working for fifteen years as an architect in Australia. I am very familiar with computer technology in the world of architecture. But this is my first blog!
In regards to this course, I am excited and skeptical at the same time. I am very excited about the teaching and educational opportunities provided by Computer Aided Language Learning. But I am unsure about the long term advantages and disadvantages of this technology for the classroom and for the community. I left my previous profession because I want to communicate with real people, in person. Nevertheless, I am embarking on this course with an open mind and with lots of excitement.
Hi Jenny,
ReplyDeleteCongrats with the blog. Welcome to the course. I appreciate your open mind and willingness to give it a chance.
Hi Jenny,
ReplyDeleteCute cartoon.
What a career change!!!
I share your feelings about being excited yet skeptical. Nonetheless, I am convinced that in order to teach the new generation, the now generation, we must be able to use technology to be able to speak to our students and reach out to them, in the way they reach out to each other.
Good luck in the course. Maybe you can come to my rescue since I am not at ease in this technological environment.
