I'm overwhelmed by contradictory feelings. On the one hand, it's the joy of having completed a big and very important task and on the other, it's sadness because I'll have to part from so many of you to whom I've already got used. I'm going to miss the readings, the tasks, but most of all the discussions we used to have. I think these discussions played an important role in my formation within the course. Comments made by the participants, questions, link sharing and discussing everyone's experience were of great use to me and I'm sure to many of other participants. Jodi and Sherie's careful guiding and detailed explanations were very helpful.
This course has made me feel different, look at things I do from a different angle.
To my mind, the goal of this course was to make a change. A change in the attitude, in the way of teaching and even in human interaction. And I can say, the aim has been attained. I've been given the impetus and now I will be trying and implementing new tools to help my students achieve better results, to feel self-confident and proud of what I do.
I'm very grateful to Jodi and Sherie for having provided us this wonderful opportunity of getting insights into web tools that can be used in class.
Jodi and Sherie, if you were in Moldova, you would be sure to get a bunch of flowers as a sign of gratitude. So these virtual flowers are for YOU.

Dear Ludmila,
ReplyDeleteYou were the first to create your blog. You generously shared with us your thoughts and achievements, were so friendly and helpful.
I agree with you that we all changed. And we all have to support each other in making this change spread. Can we let other teachers keep torturing students with obsolete books and meaningless tasks?
I have seen you on Facebook, so I am not saying 'Good-bye', I'm saying see you there.
Cheers,
Val

Dear Ludmila,
ReplyDeleteIf I visit Moldova will I also get a bouquet?!
Say yes, and I am on the plane!
Happy Birthday!
Hope you celebrate your day and your achievement wildly
Best of luck,
Hassan
Of course you will!
DeleteOh Ludmila - I apparently missed your birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you so much, too, for the virtual flowers. I can almost smell them! Actually, the gerbera flowers are very special to me. I didn't know them until I went to Hungary for a year, and then always saw them. My older daughter just got married this last summer, and she had gerbera for her wedding bouquet!
I, too, know what you mean about looking at teaching in a new way, with a new impetus to try even more new ideas.
Jodi
Thank you.
DeleteI'm glad you love the flowers.
Happy birthday Ludmila!
ReplyDeleteWe all tend to evolve in a positive way through time. I'm glad the change we will carve are for education purposes.
