Let´s do away with boring introductions.

-
Those of us who´ve been teaching for some time, know there are some typical 1st day activities; for example introducing yourself.

We can make good use of some excellent web 2.0 tools to do this.

If you want even more, here´s a whole lot more!

Here´s my choice.


Now it is your turn. Following the same structure, prepare an "About me" presentation. Which tool will you choose?

 Once you have your Story, just include the link in a comment.

    Hi! the one before is mine too....I don´t know why it says Mirta, perhaps because we were here together trying things out! Animoto allowed me only 30 seconds for free, that´s why I had to do it in 2 parts..Kisses

    Hi Karina: yes, the free version of Animoto only allows for 30 secs. but you solved it perfectly well by dividing your story in two chapetrs. Well done!!!

    Regarding the name that appears in your comment, Blogger reads the username of the mail account which is open. If you were working together when you posted, Mirta´s mail was open so it assumed it was her making the comment. ;-)

We are all different and thus learn in different ways. Each of us has preferred or dominant learning style, but we also have a mix of them.  We can also use different learning styles in different circumstances as they are not fixed. Our learning styles model the way we learn and connect with knowledge, how we represent experiences, recall information; even the words we choose are influenced by our learning style.  The Seven Learning Styles Visual  (spatial) : You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding.
