We discussed how our students develop their abilities while learning English in the last session. What is the sequence we must follow to acquire a new language? There were different stances on whether students develop first receptive or productive skills. I realized that the way we learn a language is how we plan and deliver our teaching strategies most of the time. However, I am convinced that we acquire a language by listening first. After that, we repeat the sounds to send a clear message, and reading and writing are at the end.

SIXTH SESSION

Today's mission changed into innovating because we needed to pick an opportunity LMS or hold Google Classroom with accessories. After reflecting on the style of LMS we explored, we decided to stay with Moodle but with some accessories to make it more suitable for students. This research made me realize how challenging it's for LMS professionals to consider all the features and functions an LMS needs and permit instructors to engage students. I really love working on this project because we get worried about designing and facilitating our activities inside the lesson to make it meaningful and funny.

(LMS) Virtual platforms where teachers and students interact asynchronous and synchronous time to simulate face-to-face interaction. Indeed they have advantages and disadvantages regarding the learning environment. In consequence, as teachers, we are responsible for knowing how to manage them and choose one that can be adapted to our students' needs. To be honest, during these two last years, I was exploring some of them. I like CANVAS because it gives me more tools and facilities to provide a safe learning environment and control my students' attempts a little bit better than other platforms. In the workshop, I could explore more about it and others; regarding this research, I am curious to explore more and try some of them regarding my students' needs.

Many times, most of the teachers wonder:
How can we promote a better learning process? The virtual tools are a great alternative to combine the strategies and activities we plan in a lesson, but another question arises; how much time do we have to use them? It depends on our students' needs, so the first step is to try to know them, their expectations, learning styles, preferences, and so on.
We were talking about, and because of this, I realize that as virtual tools, I must plan when, where and, how much time they must use them. Additionally, we must foster a safe environment in which they can interact in a synchronous and asynchronous time. Another thing to keep in mind is to promote independent students. They must be able to build their learning and, the virtual tools must accomplish their learning process and, how to manage technology and the resources there must be our commitment too.

The way we use technology in the learning process carries on the commitment to consider the 21st-century skills such as learning skills, literacy skills and, life skills that combine hard and soft skills to develop during the process to acquire a foreign language. Many ideas come up to my mind when planning the lesson, I am aware that it has to be as much clear as possible to encourage my students to build their learning at their pace. First of all, I have to be honest to recognize that face-to-face classes gave me the chance to control what they check and, I could easily guide them. On the other hand, in the current situation where the classes are in the virtual environment, I have to focus on the way I have to promote a safe virtual environment. Soft skills are a little hard to manage and, on the other hand, are pretty important in this virtual world. Indeed, there is a huge quantity of information they can have access by internet it is also true that they have to be aware of how to select from confident sources and be conscious of their role not only as consumers on the contrary they must be the producers of knowledge as a part of the virtual communities in different fields of the humanity.

First of all, we must know our students as much as possible, and then, it is necessary to understand how much time we need to use virtual tools in our session when planning. Indeed, it depends on the goal we are trying to reach and how we manage them to engage students in the learning environment. According to this purpose, we can choose between many tools; most have their free version even when they have cost. The virtual tools promote funny learning regarding the students' pace. Finally, our commitment is choosing the better one according to our learning goal.

Being part of a community of practice carries a big responsibility and is an excellent opportunity to foster our learning skills regarding the development of our learning environment. As part of this society of knowledge, teachers are changing their role to address education. As a result, we have to be learners and teachers every time; the knowledge is constantly changing, and to be updated, we have to read and interact with the world. These COPs are the best place to do it, not only because we can share ideas, thoughts, materials, strategies, and so on about our interests. Indeed, as a teacher, we explore the educational field. On the other hand, we must assume an active role inside these communities; we must be willing to be consumers and producers of knowledge and update it.
