Hannah's Nineth Week of the Webskills Course


It’s been a crazy busy week for me. After submitting the final project, I have mixed feelings. I have thought about what I have done so far, having some regrets on that I should have done my best. On the other side, it has been great time sharing and exchanging great ideas with people from various countries. I realize that there are so many, somewhat too many, resources out there I have not even heard of or tried. For me, as a content planner, it’s been a great opportunity to try new things and think about how to make the best use of them.
However, still, it is a hard to answer to the question “what is the best way to realize “Smart Education” for our children’s future?”. Successfully incorporating smart media or multi-media into the classroom seems difficult but worth trying. Because they can help teachers cater to a range of learning styles in the classroom, considering students are varied in terms of learning styles.
It someone asks “why smart education?” I would answer “for our children’s future” to the question.

  1. Hi Hannah,

    Although we haven't tried out all the tools and resources suggested I am sure it is much easier now to make a good choice for our future projects or for our everyday lesson activities. I like the last sentence of your post. We have already stepped into digital age together with our learners and there is no need to come back and give up. We just need to educate ourselves further on and to carefully plan each step we take in order to cater the needs of our learners by using technology.

  2. Hi Hannah,

    You had a very good line almost hidden in your post, and that's "how to make the best use of them." Obviously, I love the technology, but we can't just use it because it's there. We have to use it wisely and with purpose. And yes, "for our children's future" is very true. Whether we like it or not, this is our world today, and we need to be able to function in it.

  4. Hi Hannah,

    I'm sure you'll find the answers to your questions. But as the times change so do the answers. And new questions arise. Just try to feel what is best in your country in your particular situation. Just try to feel it.

    Wishing you everything the best,

    Ruta
