One of my Google documents is called "The optional KWHL Strategy for my Professional Development". I like the format of this Google document, because it is made in the very Teaching/Learning style! The letter K stands for Knowledge! What do I know? W What do I want to know H How will I get the information? The letter L stands for Learning! What do I learn? And that is very important! I Learn to Teach! I Learn Every DAY, but Teach new obtained Knowledge and Skills due my schedule...

22. Top Ten Books and Resources For Online Teachers.
http://blog.wiziq.com/

23. As an online teacher, I am always developing professionally and seeking inspiration
and know-how. Here is a list of books and resources for anyone aspiring to teach
online, or for those already working online who want to continue learning from
thought leaders in education. For the most part, I have found cutting-edge,
self-published books written by peers in education to be more useful than traditional books. The
main reason for this is that most traditional books are out-dated and
cannot keep up with educational trends online. Some of the books I mention are
also suitable for educators in traditional settings or who are engaged in blended
learning programs.

32. Presenter discusses outcomes of 2 In-Service SOLE Trainings.
Uzbekistan adopted an English training program designed to teach it at an earlier age, to set
proficiency standards .New program demands new teachers. English is essential for any scholar,
student and in an effort to better compete in the global economy. Conferences, seminars are held in
English, and not knowing it means secluding, limiting someone scholarly research, because the
literature is all in English. In line with the new program, special subjects, particularly in technical and
international specialties, are to be taught in English. There are no university preparing ESP,
Business English teachers, training ICT skills in Uzbekistan.
Universities‟ best graduates with a major ”English” are usually selected, but young talents with
proficient English fluency and accuracy can‟t manage preparing relevant courses for target audiences.
The #AmericanEnglish „Shaping the Way We Teach English‟,„Trace Effects‟ Webinars,@TESOL
trainings with the Certificate on Completion like “Designed for #BusinessEnglish”, executed by
@iatefl_besig moderators, are the best teaching aids.Results are encouraging, now #evo trainers won
Tesol, delivered virtual classes to convention, conduct developed ESP and BusinessEnglish classes at
@AdobeConnect to SOLE team members.

37. The Importance of Being Obnoxious: Twitter's Evil Hashtag Habit.
For all of Twitter's social innovation, the creation of the #hashtag may be its greatest misstep.
Written by Michael Thomsen (@mike_thomsen)
Every week Twitter provides us with some of the funniest responses to trending topics.
And this week was no exception. Our seven-day round-up of the best hashtags has everything:
from things sneakerheads say to hilarious nighttime thoughts. And for these tweeters, nothing is off limits.
Check in here, for our weekly recap of the funniest hashtags.
“ Hashtags force self-importance to express itself in the crudest of all possible forms, attaching woefully misplaced
sentiments to literally coded #subjects sent to take advantage of other people's attention spans and gullibility”.

Technology has been a boy's club for most of its existence. Just another
unfortunate repercussion of the patriarchy. But that's been slowly changing, and over the
last decade we've seen a number of wonderful, intelligent, and cunning women make
inspiring strides in the field of technology. Through web development, social media, space
exploration, and video game design, we see the world of tech becoming a more equal
playing field. Here are 40 women we admire doing work in the field of innovation.

46. Questions:
1. In your classroom, do you utilize any global networks to collaborate with
students/teachers from another country? If so, which networks (ePals, etc) do you use?
2. If you do not use global networks, do you teach about global awareness in your
classroom?
3. Do you feel it is important to teach global awareness in the classroom (global
citizenship, global technology, 21st century workforce skills)?
4. What type(s) of technology do you use to teach/learn with in the classroom?
5.Do you feel your school system provides the appropriate infrastructure for technology
(i.e. Internet capabilities available in every school, computers)?
If you teach in the UK and are willing to answer any of these questions - it would be most
appreciated!

Переход школ на электронные журналы и учебники способствует оптимизации
процесса обучения. Теперь дети гарантированно имеют при себе все
необходимые книги, а родители оперативно получают информации о своем
ребенке.
«Я открываю журнал, отмечаю, что ребенка нет на уроке или что он получил

54. Why to learn in Webheads Virtual Office? Because I became a webmaster and can use our
virtual room: WebHeads in Action weekly sessions.Read more on that here: Professional
Development (PD) on a tight budget. It is no exaggeration that many institutions are
currently forced to operate with tight budgets while at the same time making changes
where curriculum framework is reshaped and a wide range of new technologies is integrated. Yet,
institutions have to find ways to ensure ongoing learning and development of staff in order to meet
the evolving needs of learners and other stakeholders. Often Professional Development (PD)
expenditure on staff is the first area to be curtailed when there is a budget crunch. How
do institutions continue to offer PD on a tight budget?http://lnkd.in/nHCrk5

Integrating Technology for Active Life-long Learning (IT4ALL)
WizIQ was quite a hit at the TESOL Dallas conventions as teachers were impressed by the
fact that the virtual class was like a real class but with a huge difference. Many teachers are
finding students in campus-based classes hard to manage since students are more
interested in their cells and in socializing with their friends than in what the teachers have
to say. I pointed out that one solution on how to get students engaged and motivated in
what the teacher had to say was to give WizIQ live online classes because teachers have
more control than in a physical classroom.
