Task 1: Create a special page for your student profilesDear EFL bloggers - it is time to introduce your blog to your students. Please create a separate page on your blog which will be dedicated to publishing student pictures, quotes, best online projects, feedback, etc. This page could be entitled "My students", "Student profiles" or "Blog readers" for example. Please publish your students names (or nicknames) and pictures (or avatars), just like we posted your profiles on the EFL Project blog. You could also upload group pictures with your students. You can ask each student to share with you a short description of themselves, plus 2-3 links, if available (in case your students had already created their own blogs or websites ).

Task 3Blogging is Learning!
For instant, it amazed me, I mean the way in which the tasks and their solutions were made accessible to so many persons from entire country (Moldova).Then I saw that blogging involves many more aspects than I thought it could. After watching this lovely video, my doubts were completely erased. Blogging breathes some fresh air in the students' attitude towards their school work. Exploring a new topic I gave students the task to write or to tell about their usual day, without giving any hints ,like use some specific things or in a special way, the one and only request was to make it creative, and can you guess what happened? They all presented their works in an electronic way, with videos and PPT presentations, I was astonished and extremely happy. they presented their works just the next lesson after I gave them the task and did it with such pleasure and enthusiasm that I never saw before. Kids nowadays just can't do without modern technology, they tend to express themselves in a way in which they feel more comfortable, and for the good or for the worst, computers truly fulfill all their needs. So our task as teachers is to keep up to date and move in the same direction as our students,and only by doing that we can expect a high level of motivation and interest from them. Blogging is a really helpful thing, that stimulates and increase kids' interest, and also a great tool for giving and receiving feedback from all around the world. |
