Hi miss my name is Nicol Waissbluth, I am really happy with the two classes we´ve already had.
I am excited to learn new things about how to teach in a more dynamical way. I think that it is very common for teachers to say that they know about technology, but the thing is that when they think about technology, they tend to take into account only the elementary aspects or tools about it. I am very surprised about the application we were taught yesterday. I think it could be very useful and I don´t believe that people and mostly teachers, are familiar with it...

I hope to learn a lot, in order to be a complete teacher in the future, with all the elements necessary to face this wonderful world.

Expectations for the class.

I'm very interested in this class. Technology nowadays is a useful tool for every teacher. In my case it is a bit difficult to manage everything related to technology and get used to it, that's why having knowledge about new devices and resources is fundamental for me and a dynamic class.

I hope we all reach a good level and get motivated with new technological resources.

Task 1: My expectations.

Hi there!
Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity of sharing here our expectations with the subject. I like technologies and social networks, I have some experience with those things, so I hope to understand easily.

I consider myself as a creative person and I really expect to learn a lot during the term, It would help me to explode my ideas for creating meaningful material for students.

Nowadays technologies are really important for society and we should take it as an advantage.

PS: years ago I had a blog, now it looks different with a lot of tools.

See you tomorrow!

Task 1

Hello there!

I am very excited because this is my first time typing something on a blog, and after the previous week I am quite sure that I will be able to learn numerous more things related to technology J  .

I must say that I was a bit nervous about the subject at first. As I have never been so good at computers or any technological device I thought that I was going to fail on that, but after the two classes last week I realized that we are here to learn and there is nothing to be scared of.

I hope that during this subject we can keep on checking and learning about all the technology we have available here at university, and also learn how to engage them with the most common aspects of our life and our future adult students (such as their interests, favorite topics, or any relation with daily lie that may help in the learning process).

It was nice to meet you and I am glad we are having this kind of contents this term.

See you tomorrow!

My expectations

My name is Carolina Ulloa, 
I am very excited with this subject. I do think that teachers nowadays should understand the importance of technology and take advantages of these tools in our classrooms. 

As this subject is related with adults, I would like to know how to involve them with technology in a comfortable way, so as to make them have a good learning experience of the English language along with the technology. 

I am looking forward the next class ~ 

Hello,

Thank you very much for creating this blog! I'm sure this will help us a lot this term.
I do expect to learn a lot from your experience, as a former student from this university and as a teacher as well. In addition, I hope to improve my skills as a student of this degree and as a future teacher.

I look forward to our upcoming activities in this subject,

Regards,

Ian González.

Objective of the class

To demonstrate comprehension of the different theories of education related to language acquisition and human development, considering cultural, emotional and social factors involved in the learning process of the adult by making effective use of diverse methods and technologies in the lesson planning and execution.

This class will be focused on the application of theories through the use of ICTs. 

The "effective use of ICTs in education necessitates understanding in meeting learning outcomes so as to prepare students for lifelong learning", therefore, we need teachers who are able to properly manage those technologies.

The future teachers must live the students' experience putting themselves in their place so as to live the educative experience from a different perspective.
