Hi, I am Ritish Haman and I live in Mauritius. I am a Design and Technology teacher in a private college called Le Lycee Mauricien. It will be nearly 3 years since I joined the education field and it has been really a fantastic and enriching journey till now. I consider education as the most powerful weapon which you can use to change your world.
Presently I am following a
Msc course in Educational Technology and I hope to learn new things through
this course and eventually help my students in the future.
For the requirement of this course we were ask to create a blog in order to participate in the Open Content Licensing for Educators course. Till now the only social network site I am familiar with is facebook but hopefully with this Msc course I will get the chance to learn and use other social network sites. Being a first time blogger I did get some difficulties to create and personalize my blog, but thank you youtube ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaQUdIXEJ9Q ) for rescuing me ;-) !!!!
My Objective
Some teachers, once they
have attained certain level of experience in their field of expertise, tend to
feel that they do have the skill it takes to actually reach all kinds of
students as well as the skill it takes to teach whatever content. However,
according to me, teaching is to be perfected on a daily basis and technology is
to make our teaching more effective and efficient especially for our new
generation of students.
Technology is to be adapted
in order to meet students’ need in classroom. One of the most remarkable characteristics
of technology is its adaptability and we have to take full advantage of such a
fact. Teaching is to be student-centered, therefore, technology as well as any
other teaching-learning resources must suit what students learning requirements
suggest.
Having said all this, my
objective regarding this course is to grow as a teacher and I hope that this
course prove fruitful and beneficial not only in terms of how much I will lean but
also in terms of how much I can shared with other people through my blog. And I
hope that this workshop on Open Content Licensing for Educators course
help me in my professional development.
I want to end by inviting my fellow friends, colleagues and students to follow my blog and any constructive comment or opinion will be the most welcome. I also encourage my fellow colleague to create their own blog and follow the workshop on Open Content Licensing for Educators course.
"The only way to obtain perfection in any field is constant learning and practice"
