I hesitated before
deciding to take this class ”Computer-Assisted Language Learning, ” because I
know my English is not very good. At first I afraid I cannot follow the class,
but I believe that I can overcome my weakness in learn English through this
course. Finally my faith bigger than my fear. I have made up my mind to take
this class. I want improve my English writing and speaking skill. In this
class, I learn a lot from writing my own blog and group presentation. Although
the two topics is difficult challenges to me, I still enjoy it.
When the teacher
said 「you have to set
up you blog and write every week」, I was very worry and afraid that I cannot
write a good article. Because I have not gone to English cram school since I
was child, writing article is not easy to me, I always spend very much time on writing.
Before I start to write my blog, I will search online article and use the
online dictionaries look for ready-made phrases that I can use in my own
sentences. Through writing blog I learn a lot of new vocabulary
and good sentences. Writing blog not only help me review what I learn this week
but also enhance my writing skill.
I am an
introverted person. Group presentation mean I have to talk in front a lot
of people and even worse is that presentation cannot use my native language. In
order to overcome this challenge, I effort to do my best. My group presentation
topic is " MIT Open Courseware. " When I prepare this presentation, I have a
deeper understanding about MIT Open Courseware, and I have been
interested in MIT Open Courseware since then.
MIT Open
Courseware is very useful. Because I choose the class that really
interested me. Moreover, the course have a complete set of lecture videos, problem
sets and exams. When I watch the video, I feel as if taking the real lectures
in the classroom. Meanwhile, I can enhance my listening skill. After lesson,
there will be exams test me what I learn in this course. These courses have
ignited a passion for learning.
I am very glad that
I take this class. I know a lot of online language learning resources that make
English learning much more interesting and easier. In the class, I use many
English learning websites and freeware for the first time. After I know how to
use websites and freeware, websites and freeware become useful to me. it can enhance
my English skills. For example, " My ET " is a freeware which can
improve my speaking skill by check my errors of English pronunciation. And Open
Courseware help me study by myself in future.
