Hello again teacher and classmates,
Well, in this week (10) we had to read a lot , but it was well worth because I have been reading about how to improve Reading and Writing skills in my students usig internet and everything it involves.
I also realised that if as teachers we do not do interactive activities with our students they will do the activities, but not because they want, because they have to.
On the other hand, I think that the purpose of having the class online is that we can be in contact with each other (students and teachers), and obviously students have to be managed by the teacher.
Besides, I just want to comment that everything I read in the articles is very similar to what Miss Letty is doing each week on nicenet with us.
Regards,
Omar Rivas Muñoz

Hello teacher and classmates,
1) Well, this week (10) we were told to work on a website, in which we could find good activities and techniques so that as teachers we can develop in our students Reading and Writing skills using internet and everything it involves.
2) The URL of the page I worked on is: http://web.macam.ac.il/~elaine/eti/ and the name of the page is English Through the Internet.
3) I think the page that I mentioned above would be ideal for beginner students because of the activitis, and excercices it has.
4) I believe this page can be very useful for any students, but why? because it has a lot of fun and attractive activities that seem very interesting for students because they are open questions so tha students are free to write what they want and like.
5) I strongly think that the page that I worked on this week can be very interesting for beginners students because the excercices it has are appropriate for this students, moreover in the activities they have to write what they like according to the questions in the activities because if students don´t like the activities obviously they are going to do it because they have to not because they like and want.
I think that with activities that call students´ attention it is easier to improve their Reading and Writing skills in a funny way .
Yours,
Omar Rivas Muñoz

Hello everyone,
How did it go this week? I hope it went great for everybody.
A) This week (9) I worked on Fonethics: The sound of American English and the Nasal Sounds, and this is its URL: htttp://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/english/frameset.html.
B) I consider that this page can be used for all levels and ages because what it teaches is really important for those English Learners, and no matter age or level, but it could be used especially for an intermediate level of English because in that level students are able to identify what movements to do in order to pronounce correctly a word in English.
This page is especially focus on pronunciation. I think it is one of the most important skills when learning a language.
C) I strongly recommend to use this very interesting page for those people who are interested in learning a foreign language like English because it is necessary to develop a good pronunciation so that we can try to imitate native speakers´ sounds.
D) This week (9) we worked on oral skills. we also saw some interesting pages, which show us the different way we can develop the four skills in order to learn or speak a language. I had already a little bit of knowledge about these pages that in my opinion are very useful for people like us because we can consult them at any time.
Now I for one I know more about how to develop the for skills, I mean, I know more strategies and activities.
Sincerely,
yours humble friend Omar Rivas Muñoz

Hello everyone,
How are you doing?
ABOUT DELICIOUS...
In this week (8) I have learnt a little more about delicious. Wabout the have discussed about advantages and disadvantages. I really think that it offers more advantages than disadvantages, I don´t think that the fact of not having internet at home can be seen as a disadvantage.
It has lots of advantages because we can share, and especially save our best pages in order not to forget them and whenever we want to use them we are able to do it very easily.
I didn´t know what the advantages of delicious are, even I didn´t know what a delicious is for, I have learned too much I guess...
Also I felt more confidence with delicious because we worked on it last week, I have been experimenting some great moments in my life that I have never experimented before.
I hope you comment on my blog because almost anybody has done it weeks before.
Sincerely,
Omar Rivas Muñoz

Hello and welcome to my humble blog!!!
ABOUT BOOKMARKING AND DELICIOUS
This week (7) I strongly believe that everyone learned something really interesting, new and amazing.
Sincerely I think I am making headway with this incredible subject because I am lerning a lot, now I know what a delicious is and what it is for. Now it allows us to save our favourite pages in a secure place, in which we are able to find them in a very easy way.
In my opinion as future English teacher I would like to apply delicious page to my students in order to have them involved with this wonterful tool called "Technology", and at the same time we are sharing our links with all the members so that we can help and be helped.
What I like the most is that we can use delicious at any time, and whatever place we are in. That is one of the most important advantages of using technology for teaching.
Sincerely,
Omar Rivas Muñoz

ABOUT WIKI
Hello everyone,
This week (6) I have learnt something really new to me because I really didn´t know what a wiki is and what a wiki is for. A wiki in my opinion can be a very useful tool for giving or having a class online like "Educational Technology". But we have to take into account what sort of wiki we want to create because there are different wikis for differents purposes as well.
On the other hand, some crazy people have bad intentions when using a wiki because they comment or discuss something in a rude way. Anyway I think it´s an interesting tool for us as teachers and students.
Sincerely,
Omar Rivas Muñoz
