BL Session 1

First session on Blended learning was very interesting and I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I thought the Ice breaker activity, although a little rushed was really innovative and truly fun.
I particularly liked the timer and will definitely use it in my lessons. I always lose track of time when students are working on timed activities and I am sure they will appreciate it too.
From today I have taken a few ideas with me which I will develop, regarding using some "unusual" technology such as mobile phones- It is always difficult to separate learners and their mobiles so instead I will try to use these indispensable devices to fulfil educational purposes....during presentations students will record each other in order to reflect on their own communication skills...
This has been an exciting session and I look forward to the next!
