Week 2: "Search Engines&the ABCD Objective"

My Food for Thought for This Week:

                                                "DECISION IS A CHOICE (especially when...

Feeling Overwhelmed with Bookmarks)"

                                                                                                

I've entitled this week's reflection as such, due to the fact that I strongly believe that one's brain, in spite of the amount of knowledge and information encountered in a certain period of time, still has the ability to organise it and retain the core of it.

It is a sort of "Roundabout Underwing" effect, triggered by a successful combination of one's work with one's love for fresh ideas, in my case for teaching ideas and thus re-inventing oneself as a teacher.

Nevertheless, I am now aware that I should probably need another week or more, in order to fully explore the almost 200 links that I have gathered in my bookmark list in connection to search engines and teaching resources sites.

In addition, during the past week, I somehow had to face some difficulties in designing that accurate ABCD Objective, becoming a source of stress for me, since I wanted it so badly to fit my next week curriculum for the class that I have chosen as "Subject-Class" for the Project Task.

It seems like the 'frame within a frame' technique I know but I'm looking forward to applying what I've learnt and to thus reading their blogs and follow their posts regularly to see how much they improve their writing skills. Their first task was to write about their winter holidays, whilst for the next task I want them to receive an ABCD Objective and see how it works for them.
