This part of the week has brought many new findings
and emotions. I tried several new tools for searching the information. Even
more I got from reading the other participants’ experience share- that’s a
great idea to have a Nicenet for this purpose. It would take me long enough to
come to many of the mentioned in the posts results. Thanks to our discussion I
can have them right now. So, I tried the recommended sites and techniques to
improve my skills in search for the links I need. The other great thing during
these days was to discover the ABCD method of writing objectives, which wasn’t
new to me but it was nice to practice it again. It was very helpful to have the
feedback from my students having filled out the Survey on independent learning
styles. Especially I got interested in Bloom’s digital
taxonomy map. Being well acquainted with it before and having used it not once,
I opened it anew as applied to digital. New terminology made me search for the
definitions and examples. On analyzing some of them and having read more on http://www.techlearning.com/article/blooms-taxonomy-blooms-digitally/44988
I have now more clear understanding of differences
which should be considered while teaching writing in blogs. New tools bring
fresh understanding of the approaches to
be used and the peculiarities of the style and
e- written language itself.
I am sure the rest of the week will be in no way less
interesting and fruitful.
Dear Mrs. Olena
ReplyDeleteI was waiting to read your blog because I like the ideas you are mentioned.
I have a question, you have mentioned " I have now more clear understanding of differences which should be considered while teaching writing in blogs." what I don't understand what does it mean and what are those differences?
Regards
Eman
Hi Eman,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your interest to my writing.It might be a long piece of writing to give you the full vision what I am thinking now about. I will try to give some clear examples to illustrate what’s in my thoughts. If you look closely at Bloom’s digital taxonomy map you will see that the way children gather or reach the information is different not only in the way they get it ( virtual books, articles, wide choice of sources,etc) but apart from literature this info is shaped not only in words but in lots of images and I-net odd for the readers of older generation non-verbal images. Thus, we can consult the psychologists to find the proof, that then, accordingly, the respond to this information is being formed a bit differently than previously known. The language of the I-net tends to be not only Global English, but less emotional in general.
I suppose that there are some scientists who work on this. Hope I will find time one day to explore the subject more thoroughly.
Hi Olena
ReplyDeleteNice reflections.Thanks for sharing the link. Unlike you, ABCD model was something new for me. It took me some time learning it. Bloom's taxonomy also helped me a lot in the past. It is worth recommending to the fellow teachers especially the map.
