SHE IS A WINNER. CONGRATULATIONS!
Recently, The Libre University invited us to participate in their 6th annual
English Song Festival held on Thursday, November 5th at the Cesar
Gaviria Trujillo Auditorium. A wide variety of teenagers from all over the region
gave us a bilingual musical experience with their spirited performances in
English. We are very proud of our student:
Alysson Gutierrez Castillowho did a great performance in English with the song, "All of Me".
She had done an outstanding show with her beautiful voice and melody and
She won. As a reward she´s got an acustic guitar and a honor mention.
Overall we had the chance to meet and mingle with many singers, musicians,
other ESLteachers and people who love bilingual education.
"Everyone is welcome to learn a new language and become bilingual....
that is the challenge for all of us!".
ABSTRACT
“Welcome to the magic world of English”
“Interacting with the Technology, I can Improve my Knowledge in English”.
The Educational Institution HIGHER TECHNICAL INSTITUTE PEREIRA has a goal to increase the academic level of its students by implementing new strategies and methods which are then evaluated and changes are made in order to achieve these better standards. This is the goal of the Colombian Ministry of Education in all of its schools throughout the country.
This Edublog "ITS English Lab" is an example of this strategy and it emerges as a final draft of specialization in Management of Computer Education, which is part of the Humanities/English Department in the school. This Edublog was developed to address one of the causes of low student achievement, which is lack of oral and written communication ability in English.
The Edublog ITS ENGLISH LAB contains information, exercises and games realted to spelling rules, text analysis, videos, general interest pages, etc. This will help students prepare for the new challenges of global society by interacting with their peers and teachers and develop an understanding for critical analysis and synthesis, which will increase their cognitive performance.
Learning a language is acomplex process that demands a lot of steps in order to learn the appopiate knowledge about grammar, vocabulary, reading and comprehension. With this knowledge, the students must be able to use it properly in their writing, speaking, listening and comprehension activities.
The English language is one of the most difficult languages for Spanish speakers to learn. Therefore it requires a great variety of strategies and methodologies by the teacher in order for this learning to take place in pleasant activities where students and teachers work together in a dynamic environment.
The Reading/writing is an important part of English teaching but it is also one of the hardest to learn, so for this reason teachers need to be creative in designing activities for the class. This will allow students to build their knowledge through enjoyable and easy learning activities.
This Edublog :"ITS English lab" has been done with the purpose to increase their communicative abilities in English for High School graders at the HIGHTER TECHNICAL INSTITUTE OF PEREIRA. In this , they will find many different strategies where they will enjoy activities such as videos, photos, games, news, songs, ICFES tests, etc..
