My learning reflection on lesson ^___^....

        These are things I learned and received from Computer Application for English Teaching in this semester :


          First Of all, there are many question about multimedia technology in such a Globalization today.   So,teacher gave me and my friends some questions in the first period of this subject and they are :


    1. List computer technology you have used in your study. What are they used for?
        My group replied that the lists of computer technology that I used in my study are :
                     *  E-learning  - to suggest a new learning for students.
                     *  E-book -to make the interesting book with ourselves.
                     *  website - to research in useful information.
                     *  Microsoft Office -to type or presentation for discribe about contents.
                     *  CAI - to make instand lesson for students.
                     *  U-lead -to make meterial that like VDO.
              
    2. List your favorite websites. How often do you use them? What can you learn from those website?
                     *  http://www.elllo.com/   - to learn through the videos from foreigner around the world.
                     *  http://www.englishtown.com/  - to communicate with native language and can develop in writing skill.
                     *  http://www.youtube.com/ - to practice listening skill and can pronounce follow the example.
                     *  http://www.wikipedia.org/  - to search the details of the information.
                     *  http://www.yahoo.com/ - to search the information for my study and chat with foreigner.


     3. What computer technology will you use in your classroom ? Why ?
                    *  E-learning
                            - because the students can learn by themselves.
                            - teacher can make it with their knowledge.
                            - students can communicate with teacher and their friends.
   


      
       The second, then I learned the articles about "Innovative Educational Technology in the Globle Classroom" , "On the Problems and Strategies of Multimedia Technology in English Teaching", and "Thinking on the Application of Multimedia into College Teaching"
  
   "Innovative Education Technology in the Gobal Classroom"

-  When creating a technology-integrated assignment, teacher should consider what they want students to learn from it in terms of both the technology and the academic content.
- Each of the students in my course con ducted an ELL case study during the semester and then podcasted and blogged about the study.
          Learned about article topic is Innovative Education Technology in the Gobal Classroom.      This article is written by Deoksoon Kim. He tells us about technology in the ESL classroom. The examples of technology multimedia progames or application that he recommend in this article are :

Integrating Instructional Technology into an Assignment
     Seeking to understand how ESOL teachers create meaningful content for future teaching, I explore how teaching content, such as case study portfolios, can be integrated with instructional technology, such as online discussion, podcasts, blogs, and wikis, to enhance learning experiences and provide better curricula.

The ELL Case Study
      Case study pedagogy engages students and teachers in a dialogue with real-life situations in school settings. The teacher can investigate linguistic and cultural backgrounds, devise relevant educational scenarios, and solve authentic linguistic problems.

Blogging
          Blogs are online commentary, personal reflections, or news on a particular subject. They can include text, graphics, PDF files, pictures, and links to ohter blogs, and other social media related to a give topic. They did so using blog@USF (http://blog.usf.edu/), blogger (http://www.blogger.com/), WordPress (http://wordpress.org/), Google Sites (http://sites.google.com/), or other programs.

Podcasting
     Internet-based audio programs available for downloading that allow the listener to play the audio through a computer or on an MP3 player. They also reviewed the tutorial podcasts from USF on iTunes U (go to http://itunes.usf.edu/ , click on College of Education and then Tech-Ease: Classroom Tech Help). After developing familiarity on the topic, they started creating their own podcasts. They used a variety of programs such as Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net), LAME (http://lame.sourceforge.net), and Podomatic (http://www.podomatic.com) for PC or Mac, or Garageband (http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband)

Tips for Integrating Technology in the Classroom
     - Take risks with new technology.
     - Be familiar with the technology before introducing it to others.
     - Make sure that instructional technologies carefully fit with course objectives and outcomes, and that the procedures for implementation are clear.
     - Build a positive learning community.
     - Research and use various tutorials and helpful Web sites.
     They also used Web sites such as Ning (http://www.ning.com), WordPress (http://wordpress.org), and PBwiki (http://PBwiki.com)

Creating a Wiki
     After posting their case studies, blogging about them, and creating their podcasts, the preservice ESOL teachers suggested teaching methods and activities to their classmates via a wiki in Blackboard (http://www.blackboard.com) or another program or Web site.


              - I learned new key words right here :

Key words in the article
          *  ESOL = English for Speakers of Other Languages
          *  TESOL = Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages
          *  ELL = English Language Learners
          *  PDF = Portable Document Format

And I learned about "On The Problems and Strategies of Multimedia Technology in English Teaching"

1.There are Necessity of Application of Multimedia Technology to English Teaching.


-To Cultivate Students' Interest in Study.
-To Promote Students' Communication Capacity.
-To Widen Students' Knowledge to Gain an Insightfull Understanding to Western Culture.
-To Improve Teaching Effect.


2.There are Problems Arising From Application of Multimedia Technology to English Teaching.

              Major Means Replaced by the Assisting One.

Application of multimedia technology is an assisting instrument to achieve the projected teaching effect. If totally dependent on multimedia devices duing teaching, the teachers may be turned into slaves to the multimedia and can not play the leading role in teaching.     

                       Loss of Speaking Communication.

That English class should be carried through all in English language. 

               The Shrinking of Students' Thinking Potential.

Language teaching is different from science subjects, for language teaching does not require demonstration by various steps, rather, the tense and orderly atmosphere is formed through questions and answers between teachers and students.

               Abstract Thinking Replaced by Imaginal Thinking.
The process of cognition goes through perceptual stage and rational stage. It also applies to studying process.


3.There are Suggestions and Strategies to the Existing Problems.
                         

               The Beauty of Courseware Is not the Sole Pursuit.
The introduction to each lesson and speaking communication are good way to improve students' listening and apeaking which the computer cannot fulfill. Therefor, teachers' interpretation shall not be overlooked              


                The Computer Screen can't Substitute the Blackboard.

Teachers need to enrich the content on the blackboard eith emerging of new questions raised by the students.
               
                 Power Point can not Take the Place of Student's Thinking and Practices.

Teachers need to encourage the students to use their own mind and speak more, actively join in class practice; we should not overuse the courseware merely in the hope of adding the modernized feature to class teaching.
                 Traditional Teaching instruments and Devices should not be Overlooked.Teachers are supposed to choose appropriate media and instrument based on the requirements of teaching and integrate multimedia instrument.
             

                 Multimedia Technology should not be Overused.

The more interference of teaching information during transmission, the less the students take from the language materials.

            


  Teacher taught me and my friends about :   
           

            
    - Mindjet Mind Manage Pro 7          


                - Creating blog in www.blogger.com

                - Adobe Caplivated 4 program

 Final, I learned about    I learned about "Thinking on the Application of Multimedia inti Collede English Teaching"


1.The Current Status of Multimedia Teaching Method in College English Teaching. 
College English teaching is to set up a harmonious and high-effective teaching atmosphere in the English class to make students take part in the practice. Thus we can cultivate their listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities, which are the final teaching aim-developing the students' English intercommunicative ability.

 2. Relationship between the Qualities of the College English Teachers and Multimedia Teaching.

Many men of insight have realized that our country should make innovation to the College English Test Band 4 and Band 6 because these exams have affected the normal English teaching.

3. Misunderstandings and Kisadvantages of Multimedia Teaching in College English Teaching.

            3.1 Teachers attending to trifles and neglectiong the essentials, and English classroom becoming a demonstrating hall of computer functions
            3.2 Teachers depending on multimedia teaching method excessively and neglecting its auxiliary teaching function.
            3.3 Some teachers being impercipient to multimedia teaching method.
           
               4. Some Suggestions on Multimedia Teaching in College English Teaching.

             4.1 Teachers should change their ideas of using multimedia teaching.
             4.2 We should devote major efforts to developing multimedia teaching mode based on network circumstance.
