More on Google Docs...

      I thought face to face interaction was the only way to work succesfully in groups. But now that I have started my teaching practice and I don't have too much time to do groupwork, I realized that if it hadn't been for Google Docs, I don't know how we could have done all the works we had to do for this week.
We were very busy these days, that's why we used this new tool for everything: ECO I, ECO II, Literatura and Phonetics!  And it worked quite well...!  =)

"The times are changing"

Reflection: This video shows us how education changed as the time went by. When I saw it I remembered Workshop I, when the teacher asked us to say the qualities a teacher should have. The first words that came into my mind were: patient, flexible, creative...but most important of all a good teacher should go on studying, updating their knowledge so as to be able to adapt to any classroom. Now I understand that no matter if I like or not using technology in my lessons, if I find it difficult because I´m a digital immigrant; I must adapt to it. If I don´t want to be like my English teacher at secondary school, I  have to cope with these new technological developments to improve and adapt my teaching practice to the digital natives.
So...there we go...
