The semester is coming to its end. Yeah, as a teacher, what else can we do? Yup..correcting students' work! And...do all our daily hum-drum due to the year-end deadline whewww!
I felt so excited before when I had finished the teacher online course, but now, I must go back to the real world: administering tests, correcting students' work, doing my own test for my s3 program, and some clerical work of the international office which I'm in charge as a manager. Thanks God I have an assistant who is very helpful:D
Well, it's near the end of the year 2010 and there are still many things that haven't been solved yet. Of course, this must be continued next year. I plan not to make a kind of commitment or resolution! I just want everything runs as smoothly as it is. Finish all the jobs and most of all: my study!
Hopefully, this won't be a very high-demanded wish.

Final Reflection
Dear All,
I must admit that this past two weeks are the busiest week I have. Starting with finishing our final project report till handling other things such as creating tests for the final exam in my university and creating a research proposal for my S3 study...lots of thing to do...but I can manage it!
So many things have been shared in this course. I feel that all are very useful for us English teachers who like to and 'crazy' to use technology in our classrooms. Almost every tool I used in my class and when I asked my students on how they feel and get the benefits of using the tools, their answers are very positive! It means that I must move forward and never stop in exploring the newer technology used in this field. And I believe it will take our time as teachers and if we are too lazy to do this then we will be someone who is 'left behind'!
Robert said in the assignment that we must give an advice to the new comer in this course. As I mentioned before that we must devote our time to explore more on what's new in using technology for our language class. We must have a driven intention on how to check and recheck the technology before implementing to our students. Then, after the implementation, we use the time again to make reflections on whether this give benefits to students and what will happen next if there will be more use of technology.
Well, devoting time and strong intention seem the keyword in this course. As all participants are English teachers having busy time teaching and doing other businesses, creating a specific moment to involve actively in this course is a must if we want to have advantages from this course. And I have proven that this work!
Thanks to Robert and my classmates for such a nice 10 week activity.
Hope to see you all online!
Warm greetings from Indonesia.
P.S. I make this blog in a 'letter' format as I really like to express my feeling and appreciation to you all .
Cheers,
Yudi
