Week Reflection

We been in Melbourne for a week. We did a lot things during the first week. It was excitin g, interesting, but also tiring, for we travelled a lot. On the first two days, we walked at night around the house where we live, we found few people went out at night, and it was really dark. It seemed really boring at night. But when I visited the South bank on Friday night, I found it quite different, crowed, noisy, flourishing. Along the bank of Yarra river, there are some bars, with a lot of people drinking and talking. And in Casino, people were gambling in full play. But I don't know the rules of gambling at all and I'm not interested in it. Then I stayed there for only a few minutes. Although I was really tired at the time, I think it worthwhile to experience the different life style.
About the course, I think different sessions have different features. David's session is very useful by making full use of the internet. It is a trend in the 21th century. To be candid, I'm not quite good at using the intenet in my teaching, so I'm looking forward to learning more about it. Denise's session is very instructive, quite useful in language teaching. I like the techniques she offered, eg, the dictgloss and some games that I can use in my English class. I would like her to give us more techniques that we can use for intermediate learners. Next week, on Tuesday afternoon, we will have classroom observation, from which we can experience the different ways of teaching, which may inspire us to using more appropriate approach in our own classroom.
