Week 5 Seasons of my learning



I could not believe that we have finished the half way line of this course! Every week seems to be running a hundred meter's race. And I am always coming last. Unfortunate!

For last five weeks I have been thinking of making some additions to my blog. But thoughts remained thoughts only. Only thing I could add is a background music tool. Alas! it's not working and I could not find why.


The tasks for this week are intellectually enlightening. The reading gave us a comprehesive idea about Project based learning, Alternative assessment and Webquest.

Rubistar proved a real ruby for me. Earlier I was reluctant to create rubrics for my student. Now, I would not teach a lesson without rubric since I have Rubistar with me.

The project thoughts as usually seemed difficult for me. I had to come up with ideas to solve the issues I raised last week. I now wish I raised less issues to solve! It was not at all a happy problem solving for me. I was writing my thoughts directly to the nicenet message box for posting. Unfortunately, the connection was lost and my finished discussion disappeared. I didn't notice that there is no auto saving option in nicenet. So I had to rewrite and it was painful.

The webquest is fun. I browsed so many templates to prepare one and still browsing. I don't know whether I could finish it before the deadline. No matter what happens I am determined to create it.

In one of the week's posting I said I love challenges. And my love is approaching towards me so vigorously I feel panicked!
