Electronic pages "unit 2 activity 5"
Plan to develop an online course "unit 2 activity 4"
Electronic communication, emoticons and E-tiquette "unit 2 activity 3"
Which mode of electronic communication will be most important to me as an e-tutor?
For me it’ll be better “one to one” because we can know how our student is progressing how our student is learning and we can have a complete record of how he/she is doing in the learning process, though it could be a little bit difficult for the ones that don’t have to much time available due this offers little flexibility in terms of time.
B) EMOTICONS
C) E-TIQUETTE

REFLECTION UNIT 1
miércoles, 24 de febrero de 2010
Traditional Education
Traditional education as the majority of us know is where we are instructed inside the classroom and there’s no flexibility you got to be on time you have to attend your course at least 80 % out of 100% and where the teacher is the one cheering us up, if you do not do your homework he is there always pushing you, and some times the lack of equipment makes it difficult to transmit the information. But if you do not understand the information, and if the teacher knows the answer, it’ll be answer right there.
On the contrary Distance education has a lot of benefit from my point of view, we don't have to attend the school, our personal advancement is going to be autonomous, we are available all the time, it allows us to work full time, though some times if we have some doubts regarding any subject we have to wait until the teacher answers it. It is cheaper and has the same value as the traditional education.
