Week 2 Reflection

Second Post
This is week 2. There was no class on Monday. We had to think the way that we use technology in our own class. I found an interesting website that can be used to teach listening. The website is "Tedtalks".
There are a lot of videos can be found in this website. It is a really good website to practice and prepare for the TOEFL Ibt exam. The speed is normal, all the clips can be paused, also, the transcripts have been provided.
Language learners can use this website to practice self-dictation.
"Tedtalks" is a good website to teach listening and speaking in ESL/EFL settings.

In my English 105 and 205 classes, I have used PowerPoints, Projector and BBlearn a lot. For example, Powerpoint can be used in classroom teaching, I have always put useful information in the PowerPoints. Projector can be used to display students' good in-class writing. So other students in the classroom can share with the work. BBlearn can be used to ask students to post homework, and the instryctor and other students can access it and make comments.
