So, this way, the teacher has increased her motivation through the study and the knowledge of everything that could be useful for her job.From the other hand, completing this "task", one of the major advantage that a teacher can achieve is being aware about the fact that now she knows other ways of capturing the imagination of their students. As a consequence, making a students interested in the topic she has chosen to treat, means creating the interest in learning the foreign language too. But which are the consequences of that? Well, we're constructing international students as well! In a certain way, we are changing their lives, we're creating the young international workers of our tomorrow! This way, one day, they wiull be preparing their minds acquiring international Certifications, improving their languages, knowing other cultures, developing multilingual interests and why not, thinking about becoming "educational shaping teacher" too!From my experience I learnt so much from adopting this new vision of teaching. You know that working with children is far from simply sitting down and doing your english class. CLIL helped me capturing children's imagination through funny activities and showing them how to learn everything having fun. Multimediality was my best friend this way and "Learning by doing" became my philosophy. It's important driving the students to a concept of a new learning based on a cooperation with the others. This is both the first and last step till the creation of open-minded adolescents. Anyway, it's also important to have in mind what we have learnt in the past; technology has to help students open their mind, not to destroy them. I remembered what my professor told me in Latin at high school: "In medio stat virtus", which means that virtue stands in the middle, in the moderation, not in extreme positions. Everything has to be treat with moderation, without abusing of it. angela69dirauso https://padlet.com/angela69dirauso/yaowzo4kuln2/wish/153693411 2017-02-14 13:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/angela69dirauso/yaowzo4kuln2/wish/153693411 Name and surname Angela Di Rauso Country and cityItaly, Capua School level where I teach Primary school Subject/s taught English, TIC, Geography, Music Webtool chosen: link and short description http://www.proprofs.com/games/word-games/hangman/Online Hangman is a perfect webtool to increase your vocabulary having fun.
