Third Tutorial

From the 3rd Tutorial, I can tell you that I really liked the idea Ariel gave us about Delicious. I looked on the web about how it works. It is a tool to store and share bookmarks with other people and keep private the ones we want. You can organize your bookmarks by categories according to your needs or interests. I wish I could have this tool at the beginning of our Research Proposal for our course of Investigación en la Enseñanza del Inglés I. I'm sure it would have made our research easier.

Here is a site that explains 8 innovative uses of Delicious:

Also try this video, that explains how to use it:

 Besides, I want to share another way to save our links. This is with GoogleChrome. Here is the link for you to try it. You can reach your bookmarks from any computer, just signing into GoogleChrome.

Second Tutorial

About this second tutorial, SurveyMonkey really called my attention. They are the leader worldwide of surveys and many, many companies and organizations trust them. It’s an easy-going tool and allows you to make simple the information that in the past was very difficult to shape or to organize in order to reach the specific data you needed for your project or for making decisions. You can find in their site (http://www.surveymonkey.com/), many different types of survey and its templates, such us; customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, trainings, marketing, and in our field, students’, teachers’ and even school’s surveys. In my school, we are renewing our certification with an international organization (Middles States Association) and we have applied very different surveys with parents, teachers, schools and administrators. Just for your information, here I attach an image of our surveys (English and Spanish).

Besides, I would like to share with you a reading our Director sent us: "The The Classroom Is Obsolete: It's Time for Something New" By Prakash Nair. I found it very, very interesting. What do you think? Do you agree? http://www.designshare.com/enews/archive/enews_1110.html
