Week 8 - more new ideas

Week 8!!!!! I can’t believe it. We are getting to the end and time has flown. This week gave me the opportunity to share some suggestions to help my partners with their project drafts, I found it very rewarding. I think it is very beneficial to have someone to review your report before handing it in, and in my case it is extremely beneficial because I know I count with very talented and experienced partners. I am very grateful for this opportunity.

Besides working on the first draft we also checked some web tools to create online and offline ESL activities. We reviewed ANVILL and it was thrilling. This tool gives so many possibilities to make your students improve their listening and speaking skills. Forum discussion will not be the same now that I know ANVILL. I use this new tool to create a sample course with a forum discussion; it is extremely easy to use! ANVILL also gave me more ideas for my final project so I modified my original plan. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to start my project until next month but I am looking forward to it. However, this project will mean the start of a bigger project for me. I have been designing a website for ESL and exploring these tools gave a lot of new ideas to include.
