WEEK 19

Summary of the Portfolio
View more PowerPoint from Fernanda Guamán


This is my summary of the protfolio that I did for my Internet and Multimedia class. My portfolio reflects all the knowledge that I received during this semester. In this summary I included the most important topic that I consider in my learning process during this semester. As you can see I included some concepts that really helped me to understand about each topic and helped me to put into practice it.

I think that all the knowledge that I received during this semester will helped me in my studies and in my future life as teacher. All the technological tools that I learned helped me to improve my presentations in all subjects and to do my homework better. In my future life I will use some if these tools to put into practice technology in my lesson plans.

I am really happy to finish this homework because it was difficult and I spent a lot of time doing it. I hope that in the future all the things that I did using web 2.0 tools will be useful for other students in their learning process.

WEEK 18

     In this week I was a little bit busy because I had to present my  Interdiscilplinary project. The judge of my project was my teachers of three subjects. I feel so nervous about my presentation, but beside that I feel so prepare.

     Basically, my project was about the lack of communicative techniques in the time class. So, with my partners we propose some techniques to help the teacher improve his class. Also, we included a lesson plan explained him the techniques and  activities to use in the class. 

     On the othar hand, I had to continue particpate in the virtual environments of my classmates. So, I was leaening more about the tolls of web 2.0 like: Edmodo, K12 lesson plans and Nicenet. My classmates use a lot of interesting activities that really helped me to improve my English knowledge. 

      I think all the experience that I had in the last week will be useful for my teacher career. As for example when I will have to present a topic in fron of my students I will feel comfortable to teach and when I will have to make a presentation in my job I will be sucessful. My participation in the virtual learning environments will help me to in the future create one to teach my students.

WEEK 17


During this last week I had to prepare my virtual learning environment using the web 2.0 tools that I learned. So, my teacher asked us to prepare our virtual environment about a tool that she gave us. So I had to prepare a k12 lesson plan class.

My class environment was about Reading skill. First, I research some information in the Internet about the topic. As for example I put in my gallery a photo that explain the reading process. Second, I create a discussion forum with the question: Is reading skills least important than grammar skill?. So, my students aswered the questuion a short paragraph giving me their opnion. Third, I create a quiz using an article that I found on the net. The quiz had some easy questions about the content of the article.

The new virtual environment really helps me apply all the knowledge that I received from my teachers in class. As for example to write the objectives and to find the activities I had to research and practicing my knowledge about lesson plans.

I think that in my future this class will be really useful to develop communication in class. As we know in the future technology will be more important in the learning process, so students will have to study in a virtual environment and me as teacher will have to be able to create this virtual environment for my students.
