Total reflection on these five days

These five days, I have learned many new knowledge and internet tools. The most useful for me, is the learning of action research. Action research stimulates my reflections on my teaching methods, and my student problems. The process of action research cultivates reflections and a scientific inquiry into a teaching or student problem. However, there is still long way for me to go to learn the action research.
I was introduced to many internet tools which I can use for teaching, social networking and presentations. Surprisingly, these tools also can be applied into my daily life – for example, I created my family tree using Bubl’us. I created my own blogger – a free one! Furthermore, the Delicious website is yet to explorer (due to internet connection problem), but the name “delicious” is indeed very attractive. All these are new experiences to me and I personally feel that these internet tools add colours into my life.
Besides, I also learnt how to control the class and sharing teaching experiences. Many examples are given in class and these examples stimulate my reflection on my teaching methods. For instance, how to control the class and how to deal with students effectively. In short, I learnt many new teaching methods.
Finally, I learnt on the new approach in evaluate on student performance.
I am particular impressed with my professor’s determination in teaching us. She teaches us more than eight hours per day and still, she is marking/reading our assignments at night! Thank you, professor Hao.
