During this week, I realized how quickly time has flown and that our course is gradually coming to an end. Hence, this week offered me a chance to reflect on the technology-related change that I started implementing and once again various tools were introduced to us, which can be used to create online and offline resources to use with our students.
Many tools offer the possibility to create online classrooms which are used with students. They can be used for discussions, assigning tasks, uploading and downloading files, such as assignments, extra materials, quizzes, questionnaires, etc.
Others offer online and offline possibilities to create worksheets, exercises, crosswords, word searches and much more.
All these resources offer possibilities to reinforce students' skills, such as critical thinking skills, language, and communicative skills; enhance student collaboration and most importantly promote learner autonomy.
