30 July- the last day of the course

July 30, 2015

 The topics:

1. Recording your screen
2. Creating a website
3. Planning

It seems I have succeeded in recording the screen and saving it! I am happy because I think I will be using it a lot with my students.

July 29, making an album of photos

We were dealing with the programmes Hot Potatoes, Linoit: Notepad. I managed to do the exercises by using Hot Potatoes, but I was not very successful with Linoit.
There was a nice Even Song in the Minster, which we enjoyed very much, but the sermon was very different from those we have in Estonia.
Unfortunately, I didn't have access to the Internet at the hotel, so I could not try Linoit  :(

Monday 27

Topics
CMC -Computer-Mediated Communication
Blogs: uses and their learning potential
Designing a blog

It was difficult for Mike to cover the topic because some unfortunate of us (like me) had no idea of anything concerning blogging. Although we were provided with the theoretical insight into the matter and Mike had prepared the instructions to be used for designing a blog, there were still some technical problems. Luckily I could still create a blog at the hotel. Thank god!

It seems to me that my computer does not want to cooperate with me, it refuses to download things and does not like the programmes we deal with.
Unfortunately, it has been raining for a whole day, so I haven' t had a chance to take any photos of York yet.
