Week+11B

Today’s class was about traditional Learning theories and Constructivist views of Learning. At first, I must admit that I was lost and pretty confused, but after our lecturer patiently exemplified the terms several times, I have finally understood them. I found these models very attention-grabbing as they propose that even if you have the necessary tools and the theoretical knowledge of a language it does not mean that you know how to use those tools in real life situations. I can distinguish what our lecturer was trying to bring to our attention because this was a query I had for years. Though, I know the language I have always been alert about tools; such as, TOEFL and I have always been wondering, if I have the tool and the knowledge how do I then construct? In this task we are expected to do some collaborative work through a technological tool; such as skype, msn and so on. Once we all review our tool independently we will connect through msn and compare our tools. I believe that the whole semester was more or less based on collaborative work; however, we never really collaborated through the use technology as we were taught so I think this is a great opportunity and experience for all of us.
