Week 9 Reflection

Need to integrate varying methods

Through this week I was reading through some suggested articles about 9 learning styles and intelligences our students have.

What I like most in his article "Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences" is how each style is described with best tasks and jobs work with them. I think this gives me clearer images of how to do tasks considering the most common intelligence my students have.

However, through years of experience, I noticed that most of students have 3 common learning styles: spatial, verbal and body movements. Those different styles can be met by using some tools we learned in this webskills course.

As an example of activities considering language and words (listening and reading) are:

For body movements, there are some websites which helps make some board games and flash cards that could consider this stream of students such as:

Final project

I could say it is a thrilling week because we submitted the last version of our project report. My revision was based on comments I was given by my partners: Makram and Hanan. I hope that I did well by elaborating my project idea, tools, procedure and finding I got so far. 

Best,
