    Very fancy screen work and recording! Good job Jorge. I really like your suggestion - Edmodo is terrific, and has everything already set up for us. I'm mad at myself for not remembering it myself - we could have used it for this class. Good explanation and tutorial, easy to follow along with you.

    One thing students have told me that they like about Edmodo is that it is set up in a similar way as Facebook and social media, so students feel familiar with it and don't see it as something boring and irrelevant to their lives.

    I can't wait to sit down when I have some time and get re-acquainted with Edmodo.

    Thank you!

Reflection about Young Learners (Jorge Quinaluiza)

Talking about young learners I would like to say that young learners are enthusiastic students that want to show understanding to the teacher even if they are wrong or wright. However, they show much interest in learning a foreign language when the class is very interested, funny or difficult. At the same time, they can be easy demotivated when the classes are not well performed. That’s why teachers should adapt materials that are not too long. It must be funny colourful to catch young learner’s attention. Describing the three groups: Young learners (children ages 5-12), Teenagers (ages 13-18+) and Adults (professionals, college students). There are many differences between them. For example, children from age 5-12 To Brunet the essences of creativity out how to use what you already know in order to go beyond what you already think. In a relation to this thinking and according to me young children learn in a natural way like playing, discovering, imitating without taking care t...

Teaching Adult Learners (Byron)

Teaching Adult Learners    ( Byron Soria)     Well, I chose this topic, because, actually I am working  at the University as an English teacher, and obviously I am interested to learn new things, and share some ideas. I consider this article is good in the teaching-learning process especially with adults. I would like to share really good aspects that this paper mentions and add others things base on my own experience. For  example, this article says Adults have a lot of experience that can contribute to the class.     I completely agree with this. I had the opportunity to work with some teachers that were  studying  in the university. They have been educators in different schools for some years, but they do not have a bachelor’s degree, they were in the collage to get the degree. Obviously, they have experience in the teaching  field . One day one of them told me. “Teacher, I know a game in Spanish can we adap...
