week 6

 Weekly Reflection
This week has been another one to discover some other teaching tools. First all I would like to say that I have never used PowerPoint to teach .Through the reading of the articles given for this week, I have discovered that it is possible to use PowerPoint to make students interact. I tried to create an interactive PowerPoint document in order to implement it in my class. The use of PowerPoint has been successful because it the first time we tried it in our school .unfortunately we don’t have video projector to make thing better. We tried it with some computers.




Final Project  
It will be better to remember that in my timetable I only have a meeting per week with my student to use technology to teach because we have the program given by the minister of education that we must follow. This week, I tried to implement teaching with PowerPoint.      For this course we logically need a video projector but my school does not have one. So before the class I prepared every. I sent a message to all the 28 students via their e-mail address. The day of the course I asked to have one computer for two students. I do this in order to permit them to interact during the course .So when the course started I asked them to go their e-mail. And they discovered what I put there. This has been a surprise for them because they have never seen thing like this before. It has been difficult for certain of them but after a moment they have understood everything. This has made a new change in my teaching because all the students wanted to say something during the course .

    What an excellent work-around. You found a very ingenious way to get around the problem you were facing. I am very excited to read about this breakthrough you've had. I look forward to reading your final project report.
