End-of-Semester Web Sites Presentation




Greetings - we finally made it to the end!Somehow September has turned into May and another academic year has been put to rest. I realize that the spring semester was very challenging, as you were supposed to do a lot of reading, thinking and blogging, which was new and time-consuming. But I want to believe that you got something out of it.

I would like to thank you for being actively involved in my experiment. You've surpassed all my expectations and you've given me a lot of food for thought and many new ideas. Thanks to your feedback, many things will be done differently next year.

By the way, Red Squirrel has left a comment to the post below that would make you take pride in your achievements.

I wish you good luck with your exams!
Keep in touch.
Yours,
Anna Vladimirovna

Dear Anechka,

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!

Super job! I am amazed and very proud of you.
Yesterday, we had guests from Poland at our university. I mentioned your and your students' project. I gave the URL to them. So, you will have more international guests in your wonderful and professionally created BLOG!
I wish you a great success in your future job and research work. Thank you very much for the fabulous sample how blogging could be used.

Dear Nina,
Thank you for your heartfelt congratulations.

It was a good learning experience which has shown me the potential of using ICT in language teaching. However, it's just the first step. I have a long way to go in terms of organizational issues, providing enough motivation, sustaining students'interest, and finding a reasonable compromise between innovative and standard teaching. Anyway, I am looking forward to a new step forward.

Dear Anna Vladimirovna, thank you for proposing sucha wonderful task to us - it was really gripping! And it was my first experience of working with the Internet not only as a sourse of downloading information, but also making a tiny part of that huge net by myself. And special thanks for the presentation you've made)
