I'm please to meet you all. This will be our last participation in this educational effort, our previous experiences had been
very rewarding to us -teacher and students-.No wonder, we're here again for another try.
Our school is a very tiny one. It only seats 80 students on its maximun capacity. Currently, we have 60 students attending.
We teach English as a second language. Trying to provide our learners with collaborative projects where they will not only
practice the language, but learn about other -perhaps- more significant, cultural, skillful ways of life, etc. We're located in the
southeast part of Mexico. In hilly and green Xalapa, in the state of Veracruz. We'll share more about us in our welcome
package.
I'm leading this educational approach for the seventh consecutive year. Looking for fun, challenging and meaningfull ways to
teach a second language. Mainly, we're here to share and learn from this collaborative educational experience.
I'm looking forward to meeting you all through emails, forums and way not, in a live session -that would be awsome-.
Cheers,
Guillermo Ojeda Lajud

Go Further: Iris 6 -week Project
Go Further: Iris 6 -week Project
Iris Chiu 10/03/2011
I am extremely excited about this brand new 6-week project because over the last month I have held multiple meetings with the principal and deans to discuss the various aspects of the project. Our main goal is to broaden our student’s global perspective through this unique 6-week challenge.
Long distance communication via video conferencing (time and equipments) for the purpose of correcting essays and giving student feedbacks can be very difficult and challenging. Thanks to I-EARN it has made communicating over large distances easier.
I would like to share with you my student’s learning experiences via these four blogs (http://nzjh1.blogspot.com/,http://nzjh2.blogspot.com/,http://nzjh3.blogspot.com/ ,http://nzjh4.blogspot.com/). I am very excited to be able to teach my students a variety of current events and news in English. I am utterly exhausted during this second week of school, but also calmly reflective and overwhelmingly renewed. This shows that I am exactly where I should be at this point in my learning and teaching career, with my Nan-Jung Junior High School students.
It has been fascinating talking and communicating with international students through the perspective of a coach. Certain things have caught my attention during these talks that might otherwise pass unnoticed. I feel it is my responsibility to document my experiences this year, no matter how tired I am. I am sure many of you reading this can certainly relate.
I am committed to this 6-week project and determined to see it through. At the end, I hope to learn more about and respect other cultures so that I can instill this knowledge upon my students and maximize the effectiveness of this project. If you are a system’s thinker, you’ll definitely want to stay tuned.
