Hello everyone!
This is my reflective blog for the course I'm currently taking at the University of Oregon. I am really passionate about learning and implementing new and interesting tools that can be used in the English classroom. I am usually looking for tutorials to be able to learn how to use new sites or just add to what I already know. There are so many ideas every day that it is hard to catch up, but I am certainly trying to . I am thrilled to be part of this experience and will continue to work hard so that this experience is really an enriching one. 

I have created some blogs before, and I would like you to see them and perhaps give me some feedback. 

Thanks!

  1. Hello, Roxana!

    I have visited all your blogs and would like to say I'm impressed! Amazing! I have forgotten about the time, my plans for today's evening. I was watching, listening and enjoying.

    You know, last semester we worked on the module "Effective Presentations", learned and practised the 7 rules of rhetoric. We are going to review the rhetorical techniques during the second one as well. It would be a great thing to use an excerpt of the movie "Thanks for smoking" for this purpose, if you are not against.

    Roxana, you inspired me greatly! Thanks a lot!

    Kind regards,
    Helen

      Thank you for your kind thoughts. Please, feel free to use any information or link, I love sharing, especially when I know that students will have the chance to experience something new and different.

      I'm glad you liked it. Let me know if you ever need anything. I'll be happy to help in any way I can.

  2. Hi Roxana
    I too am impressed. I like how you have different blogs for very different audiences. The pronunciation one in particular is one that is of interest to me as that is one of my specialty areas. I noticed you have been introduced to "Prezi"!

  3. Hello Professor!
    Thank you!
    I have never taken a course or anything for Prezi. It came to my knowledge; I got interested in the tool and started playing with it. I really really like it. Thanks for taking the time to see what we do. I really appreciate that.

    Thank you!
    Best from this end!!!

  4. Dear colleagues,

    I really don't know how to put this but you have already intorduced me to a world that I have known exists but it's not for me, how can I get involved...
    I'm really thrilled and do hope my students will have the opportunity to gain from everything I believe I'm to learn during these 10 weeks.

  6. Hi Roxana. Thank you for sharing your wonderful links. I really liked the Prezy presentation about consonant sounds. Perhaps I can use it in my classes. Thank you.

    Pura vida ;-)
