Hey Ellen ,great question ! i did not explain my case very clearly my fault ,
the teachers in my classes are taking 60 hours train from their area to travel where i am working now , and after the training , they will go back to where they came from , where i called a remote place in china , where internet might not as common as in big cities in china like in shanghai so i am very careful on using internet on my classes , i don't preach something they only feel good about . however i still think it is important for them to learn to use technology to keep up to date especially in remote area , so i will surely involve technology into my classes , for example , i will introduce something called TED x school event and maybe playing a few TED video for them the reason i mentioned about wikieducaotr , is i would like to use something similar concept like wikieducator , you know what i called* an paper and pencil version wikieducato*r , is that possible in real life ? for them to get together as a group to create lesson plan and giving back to the commuity as a way of assessment however , i need more thoughts or feedback leo 在 2011年12月20日 下午10:52, <ellen.mur...@esc.edu>写道: > HI Leo, > > I hope you don't mind a few questions, just to clarify: you say that this > is for teachers who will be teaching in remote areas of China, so I'm > guessing you do not want the lessons plans to include the use of Internet > technologies, is that the case?
