Week 7... Learner's autonomy and one-computer classrooms

Hello,
Week 7 ended after opening yet new avenues for us. I have read about different activities that can be done in class where there is only one computer available. I also designed an activity for my students. The concept of one-computer class is very interesting, especially in the context of educational institutions in Pakistan where we do not have ready access to technology. Teachers can utilize one computer to teach in so many ways.

Next thing we discussed in detail this week was developing autonomy in the learners. Fostering complete autonomy in learners is a difficult task though. I believe if my students become autonomous learners, nothing can come in their way to stop them from reaching the heights!

This week we formed pairs/groups to check each other's project reports/plans.

Looking forward to the next week!

Best,
Akifa

    Hi Akifa

    I am very convinced that once students get autonomous in their own process of learning, nothing can come their way to stop them from reaching their goals.

    I really like your post.

    Regards

    Dalton
