WEEK 7: LEARNER AUTONOMY


This week's topics are learner autonomy, the one-computer classroom, and mobile devices. I have been reading and researching in the field of learner autonomy in EFL for many years. However, I am new to the idea of 'one-computer classroom' and 'learner autonomy by using mobile devices'. Thanks to the reading resources provided by the web skills assignments website, I feel motivated enough to search more on the topic by myself. It is obvious that my trainee teachers and their 'future' students are native digitals. That means that they are equipped with digital skills from birth. On the contrary, I am still struggling to use mobile devices even for the simplest reasons : )

Another thing I have learned from this week's topic is how to publish something on the padlet. I wasn't aware of the existence of padlet (wishwall). I am surprised with the ease of use and the idea of collaborative publishing. I would definetely use it for my kindergarten project (in the second semester).
I published my joint research article about "e-portfolio assessment" on the padlet. If you are interested, please have a look at the pdf article. I'd be more than happy if you share your thoughts with me.

Good luck with your draft project ; )
