Gabriela Sellart
AACI TEACHERS’ DAY 14-09-07
How it started .
Claudia Ceraso’s talk

thought
provoking
Well, my ideas were not so neat and tidy.
the B button
WRITE ON LITERATURE
I wondered:
• an audience
beyond the class
limits?!
• feedback from real
readers?!
GLOSSARIES
I wondered:
• set my information
free?!
• my students making
decisions related to
their learning?!
TAKE IT FURTHER
I wondered:
• a non-finished
product used as a
teaching tool?!
• teaching and learning
at the same time?!

Just a picture
of my mind
My tHouGhtS urged for
order.
ANDAMIADA
I wondered:
• what language?
• anybody interested in
reading my thoughts?!
• getting into global
conversations?!
 DISCOVERIES
ABOUT THE TOOL
• static website vs. dynamic website

ABOUT MY STUDENTS
• imaginary audience vs. real audience
• one reader vs. infinite readers
• language feedback vs. conversational feedback
• spoon-fed students vs. autonomous learners

ABOUT ME
• peer to peer sharing vs. open sharing
• teaching vs learning
• reading experts vs. reading lifelong learners
• occasional face-to-face dialogue vs. global conversations
I wanted to invite my
students to have a
blogging experience.
TAKING IT FURTHER
I wonder about:
• rules
• assignments
• assessment
• comments
• privacy
• identity
• safety
• collaboration
• autonomy??????????????
