week 5




What I learned & What I applied


Week 5 has been a challenge , a blessing and  exhausted one .

As for PBL
This week I have learnt much about  PBL. Susan  Gaer gives details at her website. I am still  exploring more sites to know   about project based learning.
   


From the figure ,Students will be actively engaged in various projects and educational pursuits, while at the same time learning the essential components 

Moreover, the introduction of stories into English listening courses can improve students' general morale, and show that the language is not just as a subject of study, but can be a source of enjoyment and recreation.
Trace Effects and Language Practice sections.

When students work together on project teams, they learn to collaborate, communicate, and resolve conflicts. Cooperative learning and character development supports the social and emotional development of students

As for The Role of Rubrics  

 in Advancing and Assessing Student Learning

A rubric is a multi purpose scoring guide for assessing student products and performances. This tool works in a number of different ways to advance student learning, and has great potential in particular for nontraditional, first generation, and minority students. In addition ,rubrics improve teaching, contribute to sound assessment, and are an important source of information for program improvement. 



I've also found WebQuests shared on Zunal and QuestGarden which may be relevant to my students and their examination .
I invited my students to  download and exchanged  projects among each other

Moreover, the introduction of stories into English listening courses can improve students' general morale, and show that the language is not just as a subject of study, but can be a source of enjoyment and recreation.
