3 Artifacts Done and some extras!

I'm so happy tonight that I got an A+ on my Resource Depot assignment, yay! I know I had been slacking bit lately but I'm just very stressed, especially with family visiting but I should not make it as an excuse for not finishing my assignments on time!

Almost there, ha! Right now I'm finalizing my Progress Report and Professional Growth Plan. Hopefully I can finish this course before the end of January.

On the side note, this course has given me so many ideas about my future plans of my teaching career. In fact, I forgot to brag I won an a city award for the expats contributions. I was very happy to represent the international education community. I'll post pictures later.

Good night!

Holiday Break

Been procrastinating for two weeks, bit busy with family visiting in China. Hopefully I'll finish all assignments during the winter break next year during Chinese New Year. We don't have Christmas break and had been busy with Christmas program and decoration last week.

I had presented my idea for the personal growth plan to my principal and he thought it was a great idea. I'm working on it - it's about the class set purchase of iPads for Grade 10s. Looking forward to present a proposal to the stakeholders of our school.

I'll get back to work now...

Assignment 4 Submission - Resource Depot

Yes! After two months of collecting ideas and compiling them into a resource depot, I have finally finish my Assignment 4 - Resource Depot.


Here's what it's all about:

You are about to explore a collection of effective computer software, interactive web browsers, and mobile/tablet apps that work well with teaching and learning in Math and Science courses that is intended for the use of teachers on their daily lessons or simply a reinforcement for students’ learning. I have also included some apps that can be used by teachers for organizing their class and some useful weblinks for future references. These educational technologies are very helpful especially for teaching in an English language environment with diverse students (most specifically with Chinese students).

This resource depot is a product of my keen interest and passion in teaching Math. With the help of my classmates across the world who shared some unique ideas through online discussion about educational technology, I have read and explored further about this concern through the use of internet, books, research papers, and professional learning communities. I have selected and compiled these educational technologies that have been proven to influence students’ understanding of specific course concepts that makes teachers instructions more effective, making it more valuable and conducive for the type of learners that we have.

By sharing this resource depot, I hope that it will help and enlighten some teachers to appreciate the integration of technology into educational practice. I believe that through using educational technology, we, educators can bring out the best of every learner and prepare them to become global-minded citizens.
