Autonomous Reflection and more!!

This week brought me hope to see a brighter future, the responsability of teaching goes beyond the teachers hands, not just an active role of students and adecuaded material can help us to see results. I strongly believe that sharing is the key for success. Language learning has been changing so fast in the last years, new visions and techiniques are spread all over the world in seconds, but put them in practice is taking more time, attitudes of all the member of the learning community have to change too. At the moment of giving self-learning tools to our students we are giving them also the opportunity to grow up as a person not just increase their knowledge about language. Being an autonomous learner will permit to a learners to achieve their goals no matter what they be. There are no limits when a person set up his/her own goals. just the sky is the limit.

Let's face this new stage assuming a positive attitude, planning the activities that can motivate to our students to learn by themselves, guiding them to do them as they need them, assessing thier progress as part of the process and giving them the biggest step to be an active learner, the guidance to be an autonomous learner. As we see in this cartoon theory is not enough we have to practice it!

Also I have reflected about how much we can do with just one computer in our classrooms, and uncountable activities that have come to my mind  which worth to be applied.

Care,

Boris.
