Also, we made one-computer classroom
activities. I said there is no Internet access in a classroom but I can use my
laptop computer offline in classroom. Presentation soft can be used in a
offline classroom, so I made an activity to make a presentation. It was fun
experience for me because I hadn't a doubt I cannot use a computer in a
classroom because there are no Internet access. But there are some things I can
do without Internet access! I'm glad to learn by this course and I realized I
need to be flexible.

week 7 reflection
This week I reflected how I have learned
English and how I became an autonomous learner. When I set a future goal, I became
to study independently. Setting clear goals will be a big motivation. But not all the students are like me. I need
think about various types of students in front of me. It is a big issue for
teachers how learner can be autonomous.

Dear Kaori
ReplyDeleteIt is true some some students set goal for their learning but the problem come the student has goals but economic status at home mainly (poverty) interfere his/her goals. This has been common in most of the developing country, some parents do discourage the own children from learning, so teachers should be aware of the situation and think alternative way of promoting their students autonomy otherwise we end up producing a product which only completed the syllabus but not autonomous.

Dear Nyinondi,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment. That's right. I should have considered the situation in developing countries, too. Even in Japan, a few students give up learning because they have to work for their family. I agree with your comment that we should be careful not to be tied up with the syllabus.
