  Module 06: Flipped Learning - Tools and Apps for Flipped Learning As usual, before the lesson on Sunday afternoon with the lecturer, I read the required document about Flipped Learning & Tools and Apps for Flipped Learning. Although I just had a little time for this reading, I found this Module topic this week really intriguing to me. Having read the material, and joined the Discussion forum I found “What is Flipped Learning? How many types of Flipped learning are there? What kind of tools and apps that I can use in the future…?” Actually, it’s really helpful to me, it seems to open my eye about teaching activities with tools and apps. Time flies! and this module is the last one of the course Internet in Language Teaching.

One of the issue that I am really impressed is the validity and credibility of using Rubric to evaluate students., We are nea...

  In the Module 0 4 of the course, I had a chance to learn about Reading/Writing skill building and how to create a technology-enhanced lesson plan. Like other Modules before that. First, I joined canvas to read the document that was assigned by Ms. Lan Huong then I joined the Discussion platform and this week, we shared about web pages that would work for us in our class. Include the specific web address (URL) of the page, the title of the page, the target students, why we teachers think it will work, and why we think it will be useful. What is an ABCD objective that we could create to go with this page? And, here is my sharing I would like to share the website https://www.nationalgeographic.com/ which is considered one of the most famous website for any student who wants to improve English in general and English reading skill in particular. The website is documenting the wonder of our world including its beauty, mystery, and the threats it faces and inspir...
