Hi guys! Check out this material. I'm pretty sure it's going to help you a lot in understanding more about project-based learning:   http://www.innovationunit.org/sites/default/files/Teacher's%20Guide%20to%20Project-based%20Learning.pdf  

After reading some articles about the ABCD model for writing objectives, I think that they are clear to me: A  stands for A udience B  stands for B ehavior C stands for C ondition D  stands for D egree This short video helped me a lot in understanding these objectives: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhrMWIZlhto  ABCD's of Writing Lesson Objectives ion: Under what circumstances will this behavior take place? Will the learners need extra help? Was this something that they are going to do at school? All these need to be specified. D is for Degree: To what degree or level of proficiency is required? How can we measure the learning?

I found Blogger very easy... When I first created an account, everything seemed messy to me and I didn't know where to start and what to do. I couldn't follow others and I couldn't be followed by them. So, what did I do? I noticed that I didn't have any gadgets added to my Blog. I entered at the "Layout" under my account and I clicked "Add a Gadget". Then, I didn't click "Basics", but "More Gadgets" and the one I was looking for, the "Followers" gadget, is listed at the end of the list. I clicked the "plus" button to add it on my Blog. Finally, everyone can follow me on my Blog. 

I really liked the first two lessons because I learned many new methods and techniques. For instance, the usage of dropbox is an excellent way to get in touch with your students. It's very beneficial because it's free and each of your students can view your materials there and they can also add their own ones. What is more, I can also create an online schedule for my students and I can always update it with new activities. I had a negative thought about the usage of technology in the classroom. I always thought in such a way... But these first two lessons changed my mind. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to use technology in the future because it doesn't only make the lesson more interesting and fun, but it also makes it even easier to be understood. I can't wait for other lessons as well...
